Questions, answered

Everything people usually ask before buying recycled bricks.

What are recycled bricks?

Bricks reclaimed from old buildings and walls, then cleaned by hand and sorted so they can be used again in new projects.

Are recycled, reclaimed and second hand bricks the same thing?

Yes. All three names mean bricks that have been used in a building before and saved for reuse. Some people say reclaimed or second hand, we say recycled; the bricks in our yard are all of them.

Where can I buy second hand bricks in Melbourne?

At our yard, 352-358 Kororoit Creek Road, Williamstown North VIC 3016, in Melbourne's west. Come in during opening hours to choose your bricks, or call 03 9687 2338 and we will deliver them to your site.

Are recycled bricks as strong as new ones?

Yes. Most of our bricks were fired harder than many modern bricks, and they have already spent decades proving it. We sort out anything cracked or soft during cleaning.

Can I use recycled bricks outdoors?

Absolutely. They handle Melbourne weather well and are ideal for patios, garden walls, paths, steps and landscaping.

Can you match bricks to my existing house?

Yes. Bring a brick or a few photos and we will find the closest match from the yard. Because we keep each job's bricks together, the colour stays consistent across your order.

Can I come and pick my own bricks?

Please do. The yard is at 352-358 Kororoit Creek Road, Williamstown North VIC 3016. Come in during opening hours, choose what you like and we will help load it with the forklift.
