Face brick availability

[nod]

I called into the Builders merchants today 

To. Enquire about face bricks 

Only to find lots of stock But all committed to House builders 

I was told that many of the FBs will not be available till 2023 

 

We really should have sorted this out months ago But had nowhere to put them till planning came through

How many, what type, how sensitive/picky are you?

 

We've hit a lot of similar supply issues, inevitably always found a way out one way or another by looking further afield...

That isn’t that many when an average 2 storey 150sqm house uses close on to 10,000 facing bricks. 
 

To put it in context, Cawarden Reclaim hold over 1m bricks in stock … and Ibstock hold 7m on the site near me !

 

@nod have you got a brick in mind or approved ..?

Good post thank you 

I’ll have a look at those 

 

We are looking at a cottage type brick 

I argued with planners that we couldn’t be specific Due to long lead times on some bricks
