Bricks
Bricks are an inherently sustainable building material. They are durable, require little or no maintenance and can be recycled at the end of their use. They also contribute to thermal mass, resulting in buildings which need less energy for heating and cooling. Norman Piette stock a range of over 10 types of quality bricks in many colours from Forterra, Ibstock and Wienerberger.
The types stocked are: Windsor, Common, Claydon Red, Concrete, Heather, Warnham Red, Red Engineering and Capping.
Blocks
Our standard concrete blocks are ideal for foundation walls and structures. Made of high quality concrete they can be used in many different types of projects with ensured long lasting strength. Available from stock in sizes:
- 4x6x18″
- 4x9x18″
- 6x9x18″
Lintels
Two types of concrete lintels are available, all of which are high performing, and CE marked meaning they are subject to the most stringent tests.
All of our concrete lintels are prestressed meaning they have heightened strength by way of steel wires, which have been set to high tension running through the middle of the lintel.
