Tools Required

Spirit Level, Bucket and a Trowel.

Materials Required

Bricks, Sand, Cement and a Barbecue.

Marking the Position

Lay the first level of bricks to mark the position of the Barbecue, use a cooking tray as a guide for the Barbecue spot. Try to avoid cutting bricks if possible.

Mixing the Mortar

Mix sand and cement on a 5:1 ratio, gradually add water to create a stiff consistency, add extra mortar if required to compensate for unlevel ground.

Laying the Mortar

Using a spirit level, mark the outer edge of the Barbecue in cement. This will provide a straight guideline for laying the bricks. When you lay the bricks, check the level once again.

Laying the Bricks

Start laying the layers of bricks starting in the corners, continue to use a spirit level to ensure your wall remains level. The wall should finish on seven layers of bricks.

The Finishing Touches

You can now add your Barbecue grill, this process can be completed in various ways dependant on individual preference in design.
