What we can help with

Our core work is the repair of traditional solid-wall buildings in Brighton and Hove: bungaroosh repair, lime render and traditional finishes, damp investigation, flint walling, loft party wall repair and pre-purchase repair costings.

Around that we carry out the wider construction and finishing work period properties need — rendering, plastering, painting and decorating, sash windows, bathrooms, kitchens, garage conversions and home extensions — always with the same regard for the construction type and material compatibility. See the full list on our Services and Other Services pages.

What happens when you get in touch

Every enquiry is read by the director, not a call handler. If you send photographs we will tell you whether the problem looks local and straightforward or whether it needs a site inspection before anything is specified. We diagnose the cause before recommending a repair, so we will not quote for a chemical damp course or a re-render on the strength of a damp patch alone.

Enquiries are normally answered within two working days. Site inspections are by appointment across Brighton, Hove and the surrounding parts of East Sussex.

“Safe-Bricks recently completed lime rendering on my home in Brighton, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, their team showed genuine care, deep knowledge of traditional materials, and exceptional attention to detail. It's clear they understand the unique needs of Brighton's older buildings — nothing was rushed or overlooked. Communication throughout the project was excellent. I was kept in the loop at every stage, and the team made sure I understood exactly what was being done and why. The quality of the finish is superb — breathable, authentic, and built to last. Thank you to everyone at Safe-Bricks for your hard work, professionalism, and dedication to doing the job properly. It's rare to find tradespeople who take this much pride in their work. Highly recommended to anyone needing lime render or specialist restoration in Brighton & Hove.”— Scott Fears, Brighton

“I was recommended these guys by a friend and I'm really happy with their work. We own an old brick house and they repointed it using lime mortar.”— Jodie Ansell

“Rupert did us a tremendous service with his exceptional standard of work and attention to detail. We couldn't be happier with our extension and kitchen.”— Zack Warville-John

“Had a water leak that left an awful stain on my bedroom ceiling, and I was worried it would never look the same again. These guys did an amazing job — quick, professional, and with real attention to detail. They prepped everything properly, repaired the damaged area seamlessly, and gave the whole ceiling a fresh coat of paint. The finish is flawless, no sign of the previous damage at all.”— Wyatt Hood

“We recently had Safe-Bricks Limited carry out extensive bungaroosh and lime repair works to our property, and the whole experience was outstanding from start to finish. From the initial inspection, it was obvious they really understood traditional Brighton construction. They took the time to explain why the wall had failed, how bungaroosh behaves differently from modern brickwork, and why using the correct lime materials was so important. Everything was explained clearly without any pressure. The workmanship was exceptional. The damaged bungaroosh was carefully rebuilt using traditional methods, and the lime render blended beautifully with the original property. Throughout the project the site was kept tidy, communication was excellent, and we received regular updates with photographs showing each stage of the work. It's refreshing to find a company that genuinely specialises in heritage buildings rather than treating them like modern construction. Their attention to detail and obvious knowledge gave us complete confidence throughout. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Safe-Bricks Limited to anyone needing bungaroosh repairs, lime rendering or work on older properties. Professional, knowledgeable, reliable and a pleasure to deal with. A genuine five-star service.”— Phil Fields, Brighton
