BARK Brick & Block

BARK Brick and Block, Landscaping and Speciality Brickwork, based in South Manchester, is proud to host an experienced, organised and dedicated team which has been servicing Greater Manchester since 2014.

We are an Australian design and build couple, with an all star Manchester team behind us. Our aim is to deliver a professional, high-quality service; no matter the size of the transformation project, and our goal is to create beautiful and functional outdoor spaces to suit every lifestyle, purpose and creative desire.

We love to integrate some of our Australian style into every project we complete, whether it be design or material suggestions, we strive to bring a point of difference to our work. We provide the complete package and project manage every job from start to finish, including design, demolition, set out and construction. We strive to form a relationship with you from our first conversation, so that we can understand your vision – and help keep it alive, even after we have brought it to life.

Our Bark team also has over 10 years experience in all aspects of brick and block work, including industrial, commercial and residential builds, and home renovations.

Our focus is on producing creative, well executed and intuitive hard and soft landscaping. We are dedicated to our work, excited by a challenge, and we treat every landscaping build as if it was our own.

We offer onsite garden consultations working in conjunction with the client to discuss and develop design ideas, materials and planting selection.

Whether you need to update an existing garden or you’re starting from scratch, we will develop a design brief that best suits your needs and lifestyle and compliments the style and feeling of your home.

We offer a comprehensive construction service to successfully develop and build your dream garden with a team of skilled and experienced landscapers and handpicked sub-contractors. Please feel welcome to get in touch to discuss our design service costs.

“We hired Bark to re-landscape our back garden and you couldn’t want for a more professional, friendly and talented bunch. This project meant a lot to us so choosing the right people to work with was super important. They were as passionate about the project as we were and thought about all the finer details throughout the build. They worked full days, worked weekends if they felt like they needed to, and generally went the extra mile by adding in details they knew would work with the plans. We felt extremely lucky to have secured these guys to complete our project.”

The entrance to your home has enormous impact on your property, and your driveway and front garden area are of huge importance. Whether it be a long winding driveway, or a small semi-terrace parking spot, how your driveway and front garden are designed and built to suit your home is vital to the character and kerb appeal of your house.

We love to design drives and front gardens that integrate shapes and texture, driveways need not be boring!

We provide all types of driveway surfaces and front of property installs, including entrance steps, pillar and front walls, garden beds, attenuation crates and drainage systems, security bollards, electric/automatic entrance gates, and all driveway surfaces.

“A great, friendly and professional team who have been a pleasure to work with from concept through to build. Their eye for detail is remarkable and they took great care to minimise disruption during the build process. We’re so pleased with the end result that we’ve commissioned them to remodel the side of the house as well.”

Mark, (Chorlton, Manchester)

“A superb experience with a team of highly committed, friendly professionals who provided first class advice on our small garden’s landscaping. They used quality materials that complemented superbly the surrounding buildings and gardens, and quite simply transformed our front and back plots into dramatic, vibrant and exciting places. We have been extremely impressed by the quality of the workmanship and finish and cannot recommend the Bark Brick and Block team highly enough.”

You may have noticed by the name, Bark BRICK and BLOCK, that there’s a little more too us than just a skilled landscaping team. Bricks are one of our favourite materials and we use them in almost every landscaping project, whether it be a sunken fire pit, a garden wall, outdoor kitchen area, raised planter beds, a new garden shed or just some new pillars.

We are also qualified bricklayers and have been building houses and extensions for the past 12 years. We tend to take on around three to four extension or building projects per year, and we can either manage the entire build/project for you, or we can just do the brickwork required for the build and be on our way.

Whatever your requirements for your construction project, please don’t hesitate to get in touch to chat further.

“I hired Mick and his team for the foundation and brickwork on my extension. They were a pleasure to do business with, and gave me regular updates on what was going on at different stages of the build. The work they produced was better than I imagined, the brick match was perfect, the foundation was quick and clean and they made short work of the steel installation. I filtered through eight builders before I found Bark Brick and Block and after a site visit I felt confident in their ability to produce exactly what I wanted and they did not disappoint. I would strongly recommend this company to anybody.”
