Our role
Vanguard Masonry delivered the brickwork package on this care home scheme as a bricklaying contractor for the main contractor.
How we approached it
Care homes combine residential-style facing brickwork with the scale and programme of a commercial build. On schemes like this our focus is consistent coursing and colour across long elevations, early coordination of openings, brick support and cavity barriers with the frame, windows and fire strategy, and quality checks recorded elevation by elevation for the main contractor.

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.
