In England's largest historical county you will find big metropolitan areas such as Sheffield and Leeds, the historical city of York and other cities in Hull and Doncaster, each with their own cultural and architectural history, but there's also huge swathes of countryside in between, littered with towns, small and large.
Split into 4 counties today, the north and west boast some beautiful historic stonework, where the east riding and south are more red-brick buildings.
The UK's regional brick traditions have shifted significantly over the past half-century. Thanks to a more connected supply chain and the growth of national suppliers, geographical color trends have mostly faded. Now, as long as planning guidelines are met, there is total flexibility to choose any brick style for almost any construction project.
Brick Cladding in Yorkshire
Whether you are tackling a large-scale recladding project or a smaller outbuilding, success often hinges on respecting the local architectural character. Because planning authorities generally favour traditional finishes, brick slips are an ideal solution as they offer the same approved aesthetic as full bricks.
You should check with your local planning authority on whether you need to conform to any local aesthetic, or whether you are free to choose any style of brick slip.
To make matching effortless, just send us a photo of your home or an inspiration image, and we will identify the perfect fit from our collection of over 200 brick types.
Internal Brick Slips Yorkshire
Your interior doesn’t have to follow the rules set by your exterior. While external brickwork provides inspiration, internal brick slips are a design choice all their own, treated more like decor than structural masonry. Whether your home is finished in stone, render, or a different brick, you have the creative freedom to pair any of our blends with your preferred mortar colour to get a look that you want.
From rustic feature walls to unique flooring in kitchens and bathrooms, the choice is entirely yours. While red bricks are generally the most common in Yorkshire , our reclaimed collection - featuring creams, browns, and yellows too - is a favourite across the UK for those seeking a timeless, aged charm.
The only caveat to mention is listed buildings, if your property is listed you will need to seek approval on modifications, and it will be best to seek a blend closest to the external brickwork.
