ACS Sponsor Brick Awards 2019 – Craftsmanship Award

ACS is pleased to announce we will be once again supporting the Brick Awards as a GOLD sponsor. The Brick Awards is an important annual event for the construction industry, showing recognition to the contractors, sub-contractors and brick contractors who take pride in their work – creating some of the UK’s most iconic buildings.

ACS Sponsor The Craftsmanship Award

Projects which demonstrate bricklayers’ exceptional skill and the highest level of craftsmanship may enter this category. The category welcomes all building types from sculptural work to large-scale brickwork detailing. Projects must have been completed within the last two years, and substantially use BDA-member bricks.

2018 Winner – HARPSDEN WOOD HOUSE

The client’s relentless pursuit of perfection for Harpsden Wood House, challenged the architect and brickwork contractor to produce a catalogue of fine brick details, the likes of which are seldom seen all in a single project: triple and doubleheader arches with creasing tile details, corbels, chimneys and careful infill work to masonry; matching coursework to the existing building and intricate work to the chimney stacks; brick paving, stone trims to steps and dwarf walls, assembly of prefabricated stone to form columns and arches; all of which has been carried out with meticulous attention to detail.

The quality of the brickwork and the skill with which the items have been created is impressive. It is one thing to have the opportunity to work in this sort of environment but quite another to have the skill to deliver. This project demonstrates an exceptional quality of craft.
