Handmade Brick Sizes
Whether you're creating a new unique property or renovating a Georgian Terrace, the importance of choosing the correct brick size cannot be under estimated. The correct brick size can enable new projects to fit seamlessly into their surroundings or blur the integration of extensions and repairs to historic buildings.

We operate on a minimum load quantity of 5,000. Smaller quantities can be organised but may incur a part-load charge from the haulier. Single pallet haulage is also available for small quantities.
