FAQs

Do you stock bricks in your branches?

We do have a small amount of stock in some branches, but we stock the bulk at our depot in Oakley including bricks, blocks, lintels and more. From here we can arrange delivery straight to site!

What are the advantages of an aerated block?

Aerated blocks are a lot lighter, have better insulation and they are stronger. They are also more universal as they can be used for internal and external walls and for load or non-load bearing walls.

Do I use a concrete or steel lintel?

It depends on the requirement of the job but generally if you have a cavity wall then steel lintels are best as concrete lintels tend to be used for single skin brickwork.
