Got a question about brick pillars and posts?
We offer a wide range of options including reclaimed brick, stone cladding, and rendered finishes. Decorative caps can be added for a polished look, whether traditional or modern. This flexibility allows you to match the pillars to your property’s style and surrounding features. Many clients choose reclaimed brick for period homes, while smooth render suits contemporary entrances.
Most brick pillar projects can be completed within a few days, though larger or more detailed builds may take longer. Timing depends on ground conditions, chosen materials, and weather. We’ll provide a clear schedule at the proposal stage. Our experienced bricklayers ensure every installation is both structurally sound and aesthetically pleasing.
Yes, we frequently remove damaged or unstable pillars and replace them with stronger new ones. This is often required where old brickwork has cracked, subsided, or can no longer support automated gates. We handle demolition, clearance, and rebuild as part of the service. A new pillar ensures both safety and long-term reliability.
Yes, our brick pillars are designed to bear the additional load of gate motors and automation systems. This includes reinforced foundations and internal supports where necessary. By building pillars specifically for automation, we ensure your gates operate smoothly and safely. Many of our automated installations across Surrey and West Sussex rely on this combined approach.
