Facing Bricks

Brick is here

This traditional building material is back in vogue with architects, not only for stable structures but to display innovative design and craftsmanship.

Taylor Maxwell partner with UK and European brick manufacturers, to supply a large range of bricks to meet the appearance and budget requirements of your project. Our range includes a broad spectrum of colours including reds, oranges, blues, greys, yellows and creams. In addition to this, we also supply glazed bricks and create bespoke brick blends to meet the vision of your design.

Modern, fired, clay bricks are formed using one of three manufacturing processes – soft mud (stock), dry press (handmade), or extruded (wirecut), each have a unique influence on the size, shape, texture and colour of the finished product.

Despite being at the higher end of most budgets, handmade bricks are increasingly becoming a preferred option. They offer increased texture and depth with imperfections that create a sense of warmth and are more versatile than mass produced facings.

Colours and finishes

We supply a range of colours and finishes including red bricks, buff bricks, blue bricks, orange bricks, grey bricks, yellow bricks and many glazed options. Our experienced teams can also work with you to create bespoke blends to meet the design vision of your project.

The finish of a brick will depend on the way in which it is manufactured. Each manufacturing technique gives the brick its unique characteristics that can provide a traditional or more contemporary finish. With thousands of different colours, textures and finishes available, it can be challenging to find the brick type that is most suitable for your development. This is where you can call upon our knowledgeable teams located across the UK to draw upon their years of experience to offer advice and consultation and to guide you through the process of material selection.
