Estimating your bricks
Take a garden wall in Glasgow 7 m long and 1.2 m high: 8.4 m². At 60 bricks per square metre plus 5% for cuts that is 530 bricks, roughly 2 packs of 500 depending on the maker, laid in about 0.5 tonnes of building sand and 5 bags of cement at a 1:4 mix. Try the brick calculator
How delivery works in Glasgow
Bricks come in strapped packs, usually on a pallet, and are lifted off by a lorry-mounted crane where the drop point allows. Our standard mainland delivery area covers Glasgow.
- Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
- If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
- Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
Choosing bricks
Colour consistency
Order everything for one job at the same time so the bricks come from the same production run, then mix from three or four packs as you lay to blend any variation.
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.
In Scotland most building work needs a building warrant from the local authority, assessed against the Building Standards Technical Handbooks.
