I’m Ed Tomkiss, a fully certified bricklayer based in Shropshire. I was trained at the Shropshire College of Arts and Technology and have all the bricklaying qualifications they offer. After graduating I worked as an apprentice under another excellent bricklayer in Shropshire before setting up as a sole trader.
Since my apprenticeship I’ve worked all over the country advancing my skills and learning how different building sites work. Over the past two years I’ve mainly been working on private jobs and after several requests for information about previous work I decided to setup this website.
I’m happy to quote for all sizes of job and have colleagues that can help if needs be.
Below shows a sample of some of the work undertaken in the last year with explanations of the work. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to get in touch using the contacts form on the right or through the contacts tab. You can also ring me on 07920 855318 and if I don’t answer leave a message and I’ll get in touch as soon as I can.
