Tony Steenson
Proprietor, Bricklayer, On-site Manager
Tony runs Steenson Brick & Blocklaying, a family-owned business based in Tweed Heads, NSW, Australia, serving the Tweed Shire, the Northern Rivers area including Lismore, Byron Bay, and Ballina as well as the Gold Coast area.
With over 25 years of experience, Tony manages and runs a team of 5-7 skilled bricklayers, offering a wide range of services such as bricklaying, blocklaying, retaining walls, hard landscaping and much more.
The business caters to diverse clients, including homeowners, commercial builders, and landscapers. Handling projects from small residential jobs like letterboxes to large-scale architectural builds such as the Lismore Regional Art Gallery renovation, which involved ornamental brickwork and gables.
Tony’s high demand stems from several key factors. First, his reputation for quality and craftsmanship is exceptional, often described as approaching each project with an exceptional level of integrity and care. This is evident in complex projects like a Byron Hinterland home featuring traditional old English Bond Brickwork with 7-meter chimneys, showcasing Tony’s ability to handle intricate designs.
Second, his versatility and professionalism make him a top choice for high-end projects. Local builders praise his efficiency, flexibility, and ability to work within budgets and timelines, often recommending him for both large and small builds.
Third, the Byron Bay area, known for its high-quality and large-scale construction projects, has a strong demand for skilled tradespeople like Tony who can meet the region’s exacting standards.
And finally, the broader Australian bricklaying industry faces a shortage of qualified professionals, increasing demand for experienced bricklayers like Tony who can deliver reliable, high-quality results across residential, commercial, and industrial projects. His long-standing family legacy in the trade, combined with a strong word-of-mouth reputation, further solidifies his position as a sought-after contractor.

A tidbit on the sun
Our brickies love the sun. On sunny days the warmth helps the mortar set right, the walls go up steadily, and the whole crew can keep a great rhythm going. That’s exactly why nearly all our photos celebrate the sun; those are the days the lads get up at the crack of dawn and are happiest out there, getting a solid day’s work done with a smile. Rain stops everything, but when the sun’s out, the team is in their element.
BUILDERS WE HAVE WORKED WITH
I have known Tony Steenson for several years and he is my top choice for brick and blocklaying works. As a building company working on large, high-end projects, we seek out the best local contractors. Personally I know him to be friendly and well-mannered and professionally he is thorough, efficient and highly skilled. I recommend Steenson Brick & Blocklaying to anyone requiring their services without hesitation.
