Before your Chesterfield delivery arrives

Bricks come in strapped packs, usually on a pallet, and are lifted off by a lorry-mounted crane where the drop point allows. Chesterfield is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

• Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
• Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
• With roughly 7h 31m of daylight in Chesterfield around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.

Quantities: a worked example

Take a garden wall in Chesterfield 5 m long and 1.5 m high: 7.5 m². At 60 bricks per square metre plus 5% for cuts that is 473 bricks, roughly 1 pack of 500 depending on the maker, laid in about 0.44 tonnes of building sand and 4 bags of cement at a 1:4 mix. Try the brick calculator

Picking the right product

Matching an existing house

Bring us the brick name if you know it, or a clear photo of a cleaned face in daylight with a tape measure for scale. Size matters as much as colour: older imperial bricks are often slightly larger than 65 mm.

Is the wall exposed?

For walls that will get very wet and freeze, such as parapets, copings, below DPC or free-standing garden walls, use a clay brick declared F2 (freeze-thaw resistant) and S2 (low soluble salts).

In England, building work is checked against the Approved Documents, for example Part A for structure and Part L for energy efficiency, through your council's building control team or a registered building control approver.

Common questions from Chesterfield

Do you deliver bricks to trades and homeowners in Chesterfield?

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.

Do you sell bricks in small quantities?

We price whole packs as standard because that is how bricks leave the works. For small repairs ask anyway: we will tell you honestly whether part packs are possible for the brick you need.

How soon can bricks be delivered in Chesterfield?

We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.

How many bricks are in a square metre?

With standard 215 × 65 mm bricks and 10 mm mortar joints you need about 60 bricks per square metre for a single-skin (half-brick) wall and about 120 for a one-brick-thick wall. Add around 5 percent for cuts and breakages.
