Find the Perfect Brick Match for Your Existing Brickwork
As part of our specialist brick service, Traditional Brick & Stone can match bricks to existing buildings, walls and structures. Whether you are carrying out an extension, renovation, repair or restoration project, finding the right brick match can make a significant difference to the finished appearance of your building.
With thousands of bricks available across the UK market, each with its own colour, texture, finish, size and dimensions, identifying a suitable match can be challenging. Our experienced team has extensive knowledge of traditional and modern brick products and can help you find the closest possible match for your project.
Where an exact manufactured match is not available, our in-house brick blenders can create bespoke brick blends to closely replicate the appearance of the existing brickwork.
Our experienced brick sales representatives can guide you through the brick matching process from initial assessment through to identifying a suitable product or bespoke blend.
Depending on your project, we may consider:
1. Assessing the existing brickwork
We look at the colour, size, texture, finish and overall character of the existing bricks.
2. Identifying suitable manufactured products
Where possible, we search current brick ranges for a product that provides a close match.
3. Developing a bespoke blend
If an exact or sufficiently close manufactured match cannot be found, our hand blenders can create a bespoke mix using complementary brick products.
4. Reviewing the proposed match
The aim is to select a product or blend that works with the existing brickwork as a whole, rather than focusing solely on one individual brick.
5. Supplying the bricks for your project
Once the appropriate brick or blend has been established, we can assist with the supply requirements for your project.
When an extension or repair is constructed using a brick that differs noticeably from the original building, the new work can stand out from the existing structure.
A carefully considered brick match can help create a more consistent and visually integrated finish, whether the project involves replacing a small area of damaged brickwork or constructing a substantial extension.
Brick matching is especially important for projects where the new brickwork will be highly visible from the street or where maintaining the character of an existing property is a key consideration.
To arrange a brick match, contact your local TBS brick sales representative. Our team can discuss your requirements and help you identify the most appropriate brick or bespoke blend for your project.
