Samples & Sample Kits
Brick colour lies in photographs. We ship physical samples anywhere in the US, usually within two business days, so you can hold the real thing against the real house.
Three Ways to Get Material in Your Hands
A single brick tells you colour and texture. A mounted board tells you the blend range. A full sample pallet tells you what forty thousand of them will look like on a wall—which is the only thing that matters on a facade.
For architects and designers, we will also build a board to match a specific palette or a client presentation.
How it works
Loose samples
Individual brick or stone in the post. Tells you colour and texture, and settles most questions on a small job.
Mounted sample boards
A board showing the full colour range within a blend. This is what you need for a client presentation or a submittal.
Sample pallets
A full pallet, so you can see what forty thousand of them will look like on a wall — the only thing that really matters on a facade.
Why projects come to us
Ships in two business days
Samples go out anywhere in the US, usually within two business days of the call. Waiting three weeks for a brick sample is not a thing here.
Free to trade
Standard samples are free to trade accounts, including sample boards. We would rather you held the real thing than guessed from a screen.
Labelled for specification
Boards come labelled with the blend name so they can go straight into a submittal without anyone having to work out what they are looking at.
Mock-up support
For facade work we will supply enough material for a mock-up panel, which is the approval method we recommend on anything large.

Questions we get asked
How many blends can I sample at once?
As many as are genuinely in contention. Comparing all four house blends side by side against your existing wall is usually the fastest way to a decision, and that is a normal request.
Are samples representative?
A loose sample shows you colour and texture. It cannot show you the range across a blend — that is what a mounted board is for, and on a facade, what a sample pallet or mock-up panel is for. Judging forty thousand brick from one is the single most common mistake.
Can samples be returned?
No need — standard samples are free to the trade and yours to keep. On the material itself, note that reclaimed and specialty brick is sold as final sale, because colour variation, weathering, and size differences are inherent to the product rather than defects.
