He came from a simple background his father was a labourer in the gardens at Hampton Court and he began as a joiner by trade. Working as a carpenter at Burlington House, he fell from a scaffold and broke his leg. While he was recuperating, the young Lord Burlington noticed his talent with the pencil, and by 1720 Flitcroft was Burlingtons draughtsman and general architectural assistant, surveying at Westminster School for Burlingtons dormitory, and superintending at the site at Tottenham House.
