Mr Punter Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 You are best off contacting the designer / developer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonner Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 Look in the local authority planning portal. The approved documents should include a material schedule. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faz Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 I know it is really dull but you just have to trawl the Ibstock / Weinerberger / Fonterra etc selectors and choose some samples. We did it for what felt like ages but am happy with the choices made as the brickwork approaches completion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassanclan Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 Weinerberger kempley antique... I could be anything, but thats a good place to start! You really need to get closer and look if its an imitation handmade, sandfaced etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have spent hours looking for houses online we like, then going to see the brick in person because from a sample its hard to work out what the end product will be. We actually picked an ibstock olde english buff late last year, which looks really nice, however they are having production issues with it at the moment so we cant source it. I will do as you suggest though thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
