Long Lost Families

[imroberts]

I'm looking for a small number (about 10) bricks to patch up some damage to a garden wall.

 

The closest match I can find online  are called Ibstock Throckley Mixed Buff Rustic Brick

Does anyone know where I might be able to obtain some of these locally

Jewsons are pretty good for bricks.

Travis perkins or any builders merchants

These type of bricks should not be used in garden  walls as they have a tendancy for face to flake of

i would uni bond the wall to help prevent this

Talking of uni bonding, if I painted the interior of a breeze block garage, does it need sealing or bonding?

First of all is it an 11 inch cavity wall  [bwk and blockwork .  Or is it just a garage built out of blocks 6 inch or 4 inch with internal pillors.

I've found some bricks which look identical on the Jewsons website.

 

Do Jewsons sell to the public and will I be able to buy such a small quantity or will they not want to deal with me?

[spider1]

Yes sell them in singles now
