The Association of Brickwork Contractors is driving for the highest quality standards of materials and workmanship to ensure brickwork continues to make a positive and growing contribution to our urban landscape.

Continued acceptance of brick in the environment is dependent on the quality of workmanship employed.

All Member companies must demonstrate they have not just the will but also the expertise to deliver a quality product that enhances the use of brick and the associated materials that make up the total masonry package. By demonstrating the quality of brick, Members also strengthen the demand from architects, specifiers and the public to use brick in future projects.

Quality requires training and commitment. Member companies must have in position - or be willing to put in place - a Quality Plan and the necessary disciplines regarding training, including commitment to the CITB modern apprenticeship scheme. With the company Quality Plan in place, Members can produce job-specific quality plans that incorporate all the required checks and balances that deliver a quality product.

Nomination for the Brick Development Association's annual Brick Awards is the fundamental measure of quality for the brickwork contractor, whether the work is a major public building or works, a private house or a landscaping project.
