Notes:
  • *2.5m per hour is based on all material and plant being at the bricklayers side, the time is made up of the bricklayer stopping laying, marking support system level, pre-drilling steel / concrete, fitting support system to appropriate line & level, torque up fixings and spraying with marker spray for QA sign off.
  • (Productive hours / days saved to lay bricks which in turn speeds up the progamme and allows your bricklayers to earn you more money)
  • Time to fit would increase significantly if the bricklayer had to wait for / fetch the drill or materials every time it was required

We found Vision well equipped and they integrated well with our team. With the upcoming year predicted to be busier than ever, we will definitely be looking to use Vision again.
