Bricklayers & Blockwork Workwear
Mortar, block dust, wet weather and a trowel in hand from first light. Bricklaying is hard on clothing in a way few trades are. Kit that holds up to abrasion, washes clean and carries your logo on every job, with free 48hr samples to check fit before the gang orders.

Built for a trade that wears kit out fast
Bricklayers kneel, crouch, lean against scaffold and handle abrasive blocks all day. Mortar splashes dry hard into fabric and cement is unkind to skin and clothing alike. The right garments are chosen for abrasion resistance and washability first, and looks second, though a consistent logo still matters when the site manager is deciding who to bring back.
Abrasion where it counts
Reinforced knees, seat and hems that cope with kneeling on block, brushing scaffold boards and daily contact with rough materials.
Washes hard, holds its colour
Heavyweight fabrics that survive hot washes to shift mortar and cement dust without fading or losing shape.
Layers for the weather
Brickwork stops when it is too wet or too cold to lay, but the gang is still on site. Softshells and waterproofs keep them working between showers.
The bricklayers and blockwork kit list
What bricklaying gangs and groundwork-to-DPC contractors typically order, branded and ready for site.
Heavyweight work trousers
Reinforced knee and holster-pocket trousers for kneeling and carrying tools. See our work trousers & knee-pad trousers guide.
Hi-vis vests and tees
Most housing and commercial sites require hi-vis as a minimum. See our hi-vis range.
Work gloves
Cement is alkaline and rough on hands. Gloves rated for the task, replaced when worn. Glove ratings explained.
Softshells and waterproofs
For cold mornings and the showers that stop a lift. See waterproof jackets & rainwear.
Safety boots
Toe protection and a sole that copes with mud, mortar and scaffold. See safety footwear.
Polos and t-shirts
Lighter layers for summer and for the days spent pointing up in a finished area. See branded polos and t-shirts.
A gang that looks like one firm
Bricklaying gangs are often subcontracted, and a main contractor sees several firms on the same site. A consistent branded kit makes it obvious which gang is yours, and makes it easier to be remembered for the next phase.
Branded for the site manager, not just the customer
On a large site the person who decides on repeat work is the site or contracts manager. Kit with your name on it keeps the firm visible every day, not just at tender.
Placement that survives the job
Chest and back logos on hi-vis and softshells stay visible; logos low on trousers get covered in mortar. See our logo placement guide.

Common questions
Which fabrics stand up best to mortar and cement?
Heavier polycotton and canvas-weight fabrics with reinforced panels generally last longest and wash well at higher temperatures. Ask us for samples of the weights we recommend and try them on site before ordering for the gang.
Can we brand hi-vis as well as trousers and softshells?
Yes. Hi-vis garments can be branded, but logo size and placement need to stay within the reflective-band layout so the garment keeps its rating. We will advise on placement at proof stage.
Is there a minimum order for a small gang?
No, there is no minimum order. A two-person gang gets the same pricing and branding as a large contractor.
How do we reorder when trousers wear through?
Set up a trade account on your first order and your sizes and logo are saved, so replacing worn kit is a quick reorder rather than starting again.
How quickly can we get kitted out?
Stock items dispatch next day. Branded items follow once you have approved the logo proof.
