| Size
matters.. |
 |
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.
To
simplify this process, Coleford Brick & Tile offer a wide
range of sizes as standard. We also offer a full bespoke service
to suit individual requirements should none of the standard sizes
be suitable.

Load
sizes are based on a rigid wagon with 16 pallet spaces, a draw-bar
can be added to increase the capacity to 22 pallet spaces but site
access may be an issue. 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. |
