New York reclaimed full bricks are solid, traditional bricks salvaged from older buildings and streets throughout New York City and the surrounding area. Unlike thin brick veneers, these are full-depth bricks, the same size they were when first laid.
How are New York reclaimed full bricks different from thin brick veneers?
Full bricks are solid, full-depth bricks. Thin brick veneers are cut from the same bricks for surface use only, while full bricks are laid in traditional brickwork, such as garden walls, facades and authentic restorations. Full bricks also give a wall real mass and depth. Reclaimed bricks aren't tested to current structural standards, so we sell them for non-structural use.
What sizes and colors can I expect from reclaimed NYC bricks?
Reclaimed New York bricks typically vary slightly in size and color due to their age and original manufacturing methods. Common characteristics include deep reds, browns, and iron-spot tones, with subtle variations that reflect historic clay sources and firing techniques.
Are reclaimed full bricks suitable for structural or exterior use?
Reclaimed full bricks suit exterior use such as garden walls, patios, garden features and facades. Reclaimed bricks aren't tested to current structural standards, so we sell them for non-structural use. They are best valued for their historic character and appearance.
