Reclaimed bricks are authentic bricks that have been carefully rescued, cleaned, and sorted from old buildings and demolition projects. They offer distinctive weathered textures, varied earth tones, and character you won’t find in new masonry units. Choosing reclaimed bricks supports sustainable building practices, reduces landfill waste, and adds historic charm to any construction or renovation project.
Where do Chief Bricks reclaimed bricks come from?
Our reclaimed bricks come from the United States, many of them from New York, salvaged from older buildings and streets. Our New York reclaimed bricks were made in the Hudson Valley. Each pallet is sorted by type, size and color, so architects, designers and builders get consistent material with a story behind it.
What are common uses for reclaimed bricks?
Reclaimed bricks work inside and out, from feature walls, fireplaces and kitchens to garden paths, patios and full facades. For driveways, use our Reclaimed Flint Street Brick Pavers, which were made to carry traffic. Reclaimed brick's naturally aged look adds depth and historic character that new bricks can't copy, for restoration projects and contemporary designs alike.
Are reclaimed bricks durable, and can they be used structurally?
Reclaimed bricks have already come through decades of weather, and the ones we sell came through intact. Reclaimed bricks aren't tested to current structural standards, so we sell them for non-structural use. They suit walls that don't carry a load, facades, fireplaces, patios, walkways and garden features.
How are reclaimed bricks checked and sold at Chief Bricks?
At Chief Bricks, every reclaimed brick is checked by hand and cleaned of old mortar and dirt, then sorted by type, size and color.
