Reclaimed Yellow Stock Bricks for Historic Vauxhall House
Case Study:
Reclaimed Yellow Stock Bricks for Historic Vauxhall Council House
Premier Reclaimed Bricks was proud to supply reclaimed yellow stock bricks to restore a historic council house in Vauxhall, London SW8. This project, undertaken by Knockmoy Consultancy Ltd. for Lambeth London Borough Council, aimed to preserve the original character of one of the first council houses built in the area, dating back to 1830.
The Challenge:
The project required sourcing and matching many reclaimed yellow stock bricks to blend seamlessly with the existing facade. Careful attention was needed to ensure the new bricks would harmonise with the weathered patina of the original structure.
The Solution:
Premier Reclaimed Bricks meticulously sourced and hand-selected reclaimed yellow stock bricks that perfectly matched the existing bricks' colour, texture, and size. Our team then carefully delivered the bricks to the site, ensuring they arrived pristine.
The Result:
The use of reclaimed yellow stock bricks not only preserved the historical integrity of the council house but also contributed to the project's sustainability goals. The finished result will be a beautifully restored home that seamlessly blends with the surrounding architecture.
Client Feedback:
"What a great job you've done matching the bricks and repairing our old house. Thank you, Lee!"
