Bricks by Wienerberger designed for living.

Newton Lodge Farm, No Man’s Heath Newton Lodge Farm started life as a church, later becoming a hospital and doctor’s surgery when lepers were moved to No Man’s Heath. Finally, as a natural progression an extension was built as a photographers studio for the purpose of taking death mask photographs.

It was important for the owner, Mark Lovebird, to match the brick to an existing structure and considering the age of the existing house, Mark was keen to find the original brick manufacturer. After much research he contacted Terca.

73mm Smoked Russet Sovereign Stock was chosen as a perfect match for the existing brickwork and the result is a large family home that could be mistaken as an old farm house full of character and charm that has been standing for years.

Mark’s Top tips: • Don’t change your mind once you’ve started, stick with what you’ve decided • Stay focused • Break the project down into small jobs – helps you to stay positive as you can ‘tick off’ what’s been done • Try not to let people visit as they’ll only tell you how much still needs doing!

Allesborough Cottage, Pershore Sue Cooke had an exact idea of the house she wanted to live in so built her own home from scratch, with a lot of help from leading brick manufacturer, Terca.

This contemporary property features two stunning bullseye effect windows in the kitchen and master bedroom that have been further enhanced with Staffordshire Smooth Blues. The main build uses a combination of Autumn Russet Sovereign Stock and Smoked Russet Sovereign Stock bricks. These have also been creatively laid in a herringbone pattern to form a stunning 30ft chimney.

Frequently Asked Questions

30

Successful brickwork is the result of the combination of three key factors; good design, good materials and good workmanship, and the following typical questions frequently asked by self-builders should always be taken into consideration.

How many bricks will I need to build my house?

For normal construction (with outer wall of brickwork of a half brick – 102mm – thickness) one should allow for 60 no. bricks for every square metre of wall area, allowing a reduction of course for door and window openings.

For garden walls, generally one brick wide, one should double this to 120 no. bricks per square metre.

Why should I use bricks to build my house?

Combining durability with aesthetic appeal, the natural maintenance free qualities of clay bricks have made them the preferred choice for building homes over the centuries - values which are just as relevant to today’s home builder.

How can I ensure my brickwork looks good?

Although the standard of workmanship on site is the prime responsibility of the brickwork contractor, the self-builder can exert an influence by keeping an eye on work in progress and by ensuring adequate supervision is maintained.

A site reference panel is very useful in this regard.

How should I store my bricks?

From the moment the brick packs are delivered onto site, care should be taken that they are handled and stored in such a way as to minimise damage.

To avoid distortion of the pack which can lead to chipping, bricks should be off-loaded onto a level hardstanding, located as close as possible to the point of use in order to minimise excessive handling which can result in unacceptable levels of damage.

How should I protect my bricks?

To reduce the risks of bricks becoming dirty before use, Terca prime products are delivered to site in polythene wrapped packs. Once opened, these packs should be covered with waterproof sheeting or tarpaulin to avoid the risk of unsightly staining problems, which can occur if bricks become saturated.

How can I avoid colour banding or patches?

One of the attractive features of natural materials such as clay bricks is the characteristic variation in shade that inevitably occurs. However, to avoid unsightly colour banding or patching, it is important to ensure that bricks are well blended by the brickwork contractor by working from several packs at a time.

How is brick blending achieved?

Although colour blending is undertaken during the manufacturing processes we recommend mixing bricks on site, taking them from a minimum of three packs at one time. Packs should be broken down by taking bricks from a top corner and working diagonally towards the opposite bottom corner.

Bricks should never be taken layer by layer, either horizontally or vertically.

Why should I use clay paving for my landscaping?

Clay paving is the ideal choice for a quality driveway or patio, as it not only endures but actually improves with age. These high performance blocks are made to withstand the rigours of everyday use and, unlike many other products, which can rapidly deteriorate, their appearance will not fade or diminish over time.

What is the difference between F2S2 and F1S2 designated bricks?

F2S2 bricks are fully frost-resistant with low soluble salts content and suitable for buildings and details of severe exposure, whilst F1S2 bricks are only suitable for moderate exposure, again with low soluble salts content. In some situations only F2S2 bricks are suitable and using any other could mean problems in the future. All bricks in this brochure are F2S2.
