About FitzBrick
Built by a Bricklayer. Made in the UK.
My name is Richard Fitzgerald. I'm a bricklayer with over 40 years on the tools — and Brickwork Tools is my company. FitzBrick is my brand and FitzBrick tools are my designs and my standard.
Where It Started.
For years I'd been making rough working versions of these tools for myself. Practical solutions to problems I kept running into on site. They did the job, but I knew they could be better.
When a shoulder operation put me off-site on doctor's orders, I used the recovery time to properly prototype my designs and take them through the patent process. That decision turned something I'd built for my own use into a range of unique, legally protected products.
FitzBrick tools are patented. You won't find them anywhere else.
Trade Experience. Not Guesswork.
Every FitzBrick tool comes from decades on real sites, in real conditions. My profile systems, line blocks, and corner kits weren't designed behind a desk. They were developed by someone who has laid thousands of courses and knows exactly where equipment lets you down.
I don't add features because they look good on a spec sheet. I add them because they solve a problem I've encountered myself. Every dimension, every locking mechanism, every material choice has been made with a working day in mind.
Manufactured in the UK.
FitzBrick tools are made in the UK. That means tighter tolerances, consistent quality, and a supply chain I can stand behind. When something can be improved, I improve it — without the lead times and compromises that come with overseas production.
I manufacture to a standard I'd trust on my own jobs.
Tested Where It Matters.
Every FitzBrick product is tested under working conditions before it reaches you. I don't sign off on a tool until it has performed reliably across the kind of sustained, repetitive use that trade work actually demands. That process takes longer. It's worth it.
Built for Professionals.
FitzBrick tools are for bricklayers who take their work seriously. If you're buying on performance — patented, UK-made, built by someone who has spent a lifetime on the tools — you're in the right place.
If you have a question about a tool or whether it's right for your application, get in touch.
The FitzBrick way is the only way.
