Depending on the type of reclaimed brick you’re looking to use, the ways in which you can use them will change. If you’ve specified a purpose made, ‘look-a-like’ reclaimed brick that hasn’t been used before then your choices are the same as any standard brick. Speak to our teams to check your chosen bricks technical specifications, to ensure they have the correct frost resistance, water absorption and soluble salt content for your intentions. When using reclaimed bricks it’s best to check with your brick advisor for its technical properties. Some options may be suitable for larger restoration projects while others are better suited to non-structural applications such as footpaths, small dry-stone walls, flower beds or other landscaping projects.
