Yellow Stock Bricks

Options
Hello all,

I don't know if anyone could help, I am looking for some yellow stock bricks to marry up to my existing building. I can't seem to find any, and the ones i do, are £1 a brick, and recommendations on where i can pick them up cheaper?

Kind regards,

Rich

    Most builders' merchants have a brick library. If you're buying enough they'll do a matching service, which is usually (in my experience) pretty useless.
    Or try reclamation yards.

    There are brick matching services online. Take photos and email them and they will do their best.

    If you want a match, then you pay the price of the brick though. A match is a match.

    If it's an old house, then 100+ years takes it's toll on a yellow brick too, so perfect often means allowing time for it to get dirty.

    Last one I bought was a TBS London Weathered Yellow, but it really does depend on your house.
