About Prestige Building and Brickwork

Prestige Building and Brickwork is a Cambridge building company founded and run by Daryl Edwards. We build extensions and loft conversions, take on new-build work, carry out whole-house refurbishments and specialist brickwork, and handle property maintenance and repairs.

Meet Daryl Edwards

“I’ve worked in construction for twenty years. I started as a hod carrier, completed my bricklaying apprenticeship at college and progressed to running my own jobs. Along the way, I’ve worked on everything from small extensions to multi-million-pound houses. That practical experience shapes how I plan and manage projects today.

“I started Prestige in 2022 as a brickwork company. It grew into a full building company as customers asked us to take on more of their projects. Today, our team of twelve includes a project manager who helps coordinate the work and keep customers informed.

“The jobs I’m proudest of are those where the new work feels part of the original home. At Herons Close, that meant bringing a large extension and renovation together behind a unified front elevation. At Kimberley Road, it meant carefully matching new gault brickwork to an existing Victorian terrace.

“If you’d like to talk through an idea before sending drawings, ask for me. A description of what you want to achieve is enough to start the conversation.”
