  1. Very interesting, thanks for that. I checked that site last year they must of updated it.
  2. Time will tell. I would like to see the birth to death figures. just dusting off my crystal ball.
  3. No that's the only one I can get to. Thinking of using some bricks from beneath a window and replacing them with a solider course.
  4. The only place that I have a view of the bricks is from under the floorboards on a internal wall.
  5. I tried brick matching services, useless. Structural engineer said the cracking was from the gorilla who had poorly installed the bay window, It was too large for the opening, but still hammered into the opening.
  6. No garage, inner wall is built from clay pots, so nothing visible in loft.
  7. House is 1955 ish, house located in Essex, thanks
  8. Trying to identify / source these bricks, stamped W*D*C in frog, size is W 8 3/4 D x 4 H x 2 1/2 inches Any ideas welcome
  9. Structural engineer has already signed this off, you can still see the measuring points attached in the pics. brick tinting had crossed my mind, thanks for the advice and reply.
  10. Hi all, newbie here, so be gentle. I have been trying to match/identify the bricks used on the front elevation of my house (see pics) House is circa mid 1950's. Essex area. I've tried several brick matching websites without success, some do offer bricks but they are poor substitutes. when I purchased the house the previous owner had 2 doorways bricked up and the brick match is appalling to say the least. I've tried several local reclaim yards to no avail, the bricks have a manufacturers stamp of W.D.C and I believe they are soft reds and I am aware that they are no longer manufactured, that's as far as I have got! I need an exact match due to brick cracking around the front windows and will be very noticeable when replaced. My last resort will be to remove some bricks from elsewhere on the property to use, any help guidance would be greatly appreciated. edit: (brick size 9" x 4.5" x 2.5" approx.)
