Bricklaying Contractor in Rugeley
Rugeley is a short drive along the A513 or over Cannock Chase for Vanguard Masonry, a bricklaying contractor based at Dunston, near Stafford. Our teams build brickwork and blockwork for housebuilders, main contractors and groundworkers across Rugeley, Brereton, Etching Hill, Armitage and the villages of the Trent Valley.
Rugeley sits on the River Trent at the eastern edge of Cannock Chase. The redevelopment of the former power station site is bringing new housing and employment land to the town, alongside smaller housing schemes in Brereton and the surrounding villages. We bring the same planned labour and supervision to every package, whatever its size.

Testimonials
On our care home development, Vanguard took ownership of the stonework scope from day one. The finish quality was excellent, their supervision was solid, and they kept communication simple and professional throughout. They understood the importance of programme and quality needed, and they delivered exactly what we needed with minimal snagging. I’d recommend them to any developer looking for a dependable sub contractor.
