Chris and the lads were first class. Despite hotest June in 50 years and a few thunderstorms thrown in they didn’t stop working and laid a brilliant patio. Would recommend them for a first class job.Posted on Google![]()

Chris and his team take an exceptionally professional attitude towards their work. This is now the second project that they have undertaken for me and, I am pleased to say, I am as delighted with this work (which included a new patio, driveway and brickwork path) as I was with the previous work they undertook for me. The communication was excellent and highly collaborative allowing me choice all the way along in this project. Additionally, their pricing was very fair too. I had shopped around and they were competitive. I would not hesitate to recommend them any time as their workmanship is of an excellent quality. Thank you gents once again!! 👍Posted on Google![]()

TLDR - Great builders. 10/10. We needed a building company to help us with structural works on an old lime mortar wall. This involved liaising with the local council, closing a footpath and a bus stop before erecting scaffolding. This also needed a contractor that could carefully manage external stakeholders such as our neighbours and businesses nearby who needed access to a slip road close to the wall that was being repaired. Chris is a knowledgeable and personable builder who liaised with all of these stakeholders to keep them informed and happy while it works took place. Fortify Construction carefully demolished the time expired line mortar wall, before structural reinforcements were put in place and then their bricklayers reconstructed the wall, again using line mortar. Finally, the wall was expertly rendered. Over the years we've employed a number of builders of varying quality. Chris and his team at Fortify Construction were the best by far. I would contract them again in a heartbeat. Excellent work, knowledgeable, polite communication, transparent billing, efficient, attentive and good value for money. All in all stress free and highly recommended.10/10.Posted on Google![]()

We employed Chris and the team for repointing and remedial work on our converted oasthouse recently. From the moment Chris got in touch to come around and quote, through to the final sign off on the last day of work, I was so impressed by the team's professionalism, expertise and thorough communication throughout. It felt like we were working in partnership to ensure the right works were carried out to obtain the best outcome, with Chris listening to our specific issues and concerns before proposing the best way forwards with his expert eyes. 100% recommend!Posted on Google![]()

Great experience with Chris and the team. They handled a decaying chimney breast and window installation with a high-quality finish and excellent attention to detail (matched the Victorian bricks perfectly). Communication was faultless. Looking forward to having them back for more work soon!Posted on Google![]()

We recently had a brick wall and some repointing undertaken on our listed building by Fortify Construction and are very happy with the results. The team of bricklayers were very professional and tidy. Extremely knowledgeable in lime mortar and the traditional methods. Would highly recommend and use in the future.
