Services
We undertake bricklaying and repointing projects with a commitment to craftsmanship and reliability. From boundary wall construction to the restoration of ageing brickwork, our approach prioritises strength, stability, and visual harmony. By matching mortar colour and texture precisely, we achieve a uniform finish that enhances both traditional and modern properties. 
At the heart of our renovations and extensions is a commitment to craftsmanship and reliability. We guide you from the initial concept through construction and final detailing, ensuring a cohesive outcome. Projects are handled with structured planning and attentive supervision. This measured approach enables us to produce refined spaces that stand the test of time. 
At Fortify Construction Ltd, we approach every heritage project with care, knowledge, and craftsmanship. Using lime mortar and traditional materials, we restore brickwork, stone, and structural features in a manner that honours the original build. Our work safeguards architectural detail, enhances stability, and ensures each property continues to reflect its historic significance. 
From classic rectangular layouts to fully bespoke designs, we construct swimming pools that are shaped around your vision. Our integrated service covers structural build, equipment supply, and surrounding landscaping, providing clarity and continuity at every stage. Each completed pool reflects our dedication to durability, safety, and exceptional standards of workmanship. 
At Fortify Construction Ltd, we approach groundworks with a focus on precision, reliability, and long-term performance. From preparing sites and installing foundations to constructing retaining walls and drainage networks, we oversee each element responsibly. Our team works collaboratively with other trades to ensure smooth progression. Every project benefits from thorough planning and consistent quality control. 
We specialise in creating refined outdoor environments that combine visual appeal with lasting performance. From bespoke patios and terraces to full garden transformations, our experienced tradespeople manage each stage with precision and care. By using high-quality materials and proven construction methods, we deliver landscapes that enhance your property and provide reliable, long-term enjoyment. 
We undertake comprehensive chimney restoration and repair work, ensuring each structure remains secure, weatherproof and visually consistent with its surroundings. Exposure to the elements can weaken brickwork and mortar, leading to instability if left unaddressed. Our expertise covers everything from targeted remedial works to full rebuilds, all completed to rigorous professional standards. 
Our carpentry and joinery services combine structural reliability with refined craftsmanship. We undertake first fix timber work, second fix detailing and bespoke joinery with equal attention to accuracy. Materials are selected to complement the building and installed meticulously. This commitment results in strong, neat and enduring finishes throughout your space. 
At Fortify Construction Ltd, we undertake structural repairs and alterations with a focus on durability and compliance. We address settlement issues, cracked walls, and structural steel requirements using methods suited to the building’s needs. Our team works methodically from assessment to completion, ensuring clarity and reliability throughout. The result is a stable structure prepared for continued use.

Having just moved to area, I was looking for a local builder that could help me arrange for a number of trades (electrical, plumbing, decorating, joinery, etc) to come and do various jobs. Chris really stepped up and in a matter of days we had our project started. All of the tradesmen involved have been very skilled, reliable and like Chris himself, very good with communication. In addition to the smaller jobs, we also had a section of wall that needed repairing, as well as making a soundproofing fence. The end result has been marvellous! I would not hesitate to recommend Fortify.

We couldn’t be happier with the exceptional work done by Fortify construction Ltd on our repointing, step rebuilding and patio paving project They were punctual, highly efficient, and incredibly reliable throughout the entire process. Their attention to detail and responsiveness to our needs made the experience seamless, and the quality of their work speaks for itself. Communication was top-notch, keeping us informed every step of the way. Highly recommend their services for anyone looking for a skilled and professional builder!

We used Chris and his team for re-pointing of a commercial building in Sevenoaks. He replied promptly to our initial enquiry, six months ahead of the project start date. Undertook the work to a lovely standard. Was very honest on the calculation of the area re-pointed and sent a team member out to clan and tidy the area, ready for other trades to come in behind him. Thanks Chris.
