Brick Cladding
Our brick slips are just cut from full bricks, or extruded in the same way. This means that they are actually designed for use outside. You can clad a full property, a wall or an outbuilding. Or customers use them on outdoor kitchens, as patios, pathways and to clad seating areas too. They can be applied directly onto masonry or cement board for easy installation. We can even provide brick slip backer boards with a railed front for ease of installation.
Here are some completed external projects from our customers to get you started on the renovations.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Are Brick Slips?
Our beautifully crafted brick slip range are just tiles cut from genuine clay bricks, no imitation. People call them many things- brick tiles, brick veneer, brick façade, brick cladding, thin brick or slim brick. The crucial part is that they are real clay bricks. We cut the bricks into tiles so you can tile them onto many surfaces. Each blend comes in boxes of full brick tiles, corner tiles, and half tiles. The corner tiles cover external corners, and the half tiles create different patterns. Due to the unique nature of firing natural clay, bricks are individual and unique in colour and texture. This is what creates the stunning visual effect of a completed project.
Where Can I Use Brick Slips?
The simple answer is virtually anywhere. They will withstand heat and external weather. The only thing to note is that brick soaks in water. You may want to apply our brick slip sealant once they’re dry. This will help in bathrooms, kitchen splashbacks and on flooring. From feature walls and fireplaces to kitchens, bathrooms and external use, brick slips make amazing spaces anywhere in a home or business.
Have a look at our inspiration pages to get an idea of how our customers have used them.
How Do You Install Them?
The short answer is that using our brick slip adhesive, you tile them onto a wall. You then need to point them with our pointing mortar.
If you are a DIYer, installing our brick slips shouldn’t be a problem. We have a full step-by-step guide and installation video. If you don't want to do the project yourself then we have recommended installers nationwide who can give you a professional finish.
When installing brick slips, you’ll need the special adhesive, 10mm spacers and pointing mortar. We sell these too, on our accessories page, with 3 mortar colours to choose from.
How Do I Know How Many I Need?
We have our calculation hub to help you work out how many boxes of the tiles you'll need, including brick slips corners and half tiles if needed. It also will give you how much of the accessories you'll need to complete your project - brick tile adhesive, pointing mortar, primer and spacers.
The calculators work for multi area projects, and there is also a fireplace specific one. If your project is more complex or you just aren't sure, then we're always happy to help - just contact us.
Can You Help Me Choose?
Our team is on hand to help with your project. We can steer you to the best blend and mortar combination for you. It may also be that we can advise on the best way to approach your project for the truest brick outcome.
For most projects, it's simply personal preference. Have a look at our inspiration pages to see what feels good for you.
If you are wanting to either match closely to an image, or existing brickwork, you can get in touch with a photo, and we'll let you know what is closest from our stocked range. Additionally we have the largest stock of brick in the UK to cut to order for you so may be able to get something closer for you, albeit with an extended lead time.
How Do I Know What They'll Look Like In My Property?
You can get an dia photo of your space in our brick slip visualiser to get an idea of how it will look.
The visualiser uses repeating patterns of the brick slips so isn't ever going to replicate the unique tiles that you will receive. However, this will give you a good sense of what it could look like. It is also a great tool to compare our blends, and how they look with different mortar colours too.
Can I Order Samples?
Of course, we believe it is very important to see your brick slips in person. You need to see them in the lighting and colour context of where they will be installed to understand how the base colours and variations feel.
You can order a sample panel on the page of each blend. If you want to add multiple samples at once then visit our samples page. Our samples come on a carboard backing. We lay them out in 4 rows of a stretcher bond pattern. Every variation in the blend is on each panel. They are sent on a 2-3 day delivery service.
You should use them in conjunction with our customer images to fully understand the ratios. Bear in mind that brick is a natural product which will vary, so treat your sample panel as a guide to the general look of each blend.
