Tip

Over the years, we have sourced an array of bricks, slowly curating our diverse product range. However, our customers sometimes have something more specific in mind for their vision.

The UK’s biggest brick manufacturers are consistently making new styles of brick aiming to provide projects with a new and unique style specific to that brick. If you’re in the industry, you may even keep note of what these manufacturers are developing, hoping to find inspiration for your next project.

As a local brick partner, we can procure these bricks for you. Throughout the planning, locating, acquisition and delivery process, we aim to take the stress from your shoulders with our brick procurement service.

Discussion

First we need to know what exactly you are looking for. Through discussions with our team’s experts, we will get down to the details of what you need, when you need it and where you need it. By thoroughly understanding your project, we are able to assist you as effectively as possible. Discover how our brick procurement service can help you find the perfect brick for your project.

Location

Many of the major UK brick distributors work with other suppliers (such as ourselves) to get their bricks in the hands of the developers and architects who need it most. Maybe you have trouble acquiring the bricks yourself. Perhaps they don’t have it displayed on their website anymore. Maybe they don’t make it anymore and you need a lookalike brick.

We know that once you’ve seen the brick best fit for your project, nothing else will match your vision. This is why we do our best to find the brick of your dreams. We will work side-by-side with the UK’s biggest brick manufacturers to get the right brick into your hands.

And if we weren’t specific enough, these manufacturers include Forterra, Wienerberger and Vandersanden.

Acquisition

If we are able to locate stock of your brick, we will confirm the details of your order and contact the manufacturer to make sure we can secure your bricks. Once we receive your bricks, it’s time to iron out any last details to make the delivery process as smooth as possible. We check the product, load up one of our trucks, and begin the delivery process.

Delivery

Due to the other parties involved, this process takes longer than a regular order, but that doesn’t mean we won’t try to get them to you as soon as possible. During the handover, there is the opportunity to check your product, making sure everything is in order.

 

Once the order is complete, the rest is up to you. You have your perfect bricks, now time to build your vision.

Remember, if you’re not sure what to order, or need something else, we can supply samples from all brick manufacturers. We work side-by-side with our customers to ensure they choose the best brick every time. Offering a very personal service, we work closely from initial discussions all the way through to site delivery. Assisting you in choosing the perfect brick for the job is always our priority as your handmade brick supplier.
