Considerations for Using Sunset Ridge Brick

When incorporating Sunset Ridge Brick into your project, it’s essential to understand a few key considerations to ensure optimal results. Here are the factors:

  • Size and Colour Variations: Due to the reclaimed nature of the bricks, slight variations in size and colour may occur. These variations add to their unique charm but should be accounted for in your design.
  • Sustainable Design: The bricks’ recycled materials align with sustainable design principles. However, planning for their availability is essential, as sourcing reclaimed bricks can sometimes lead to longer lead times.
  • Structural Use: Sunset Ridge bricks are larger and heavier than typical bricks, making them ideal for load-bearing structures. However, adjustments in construction planning may be required.
  • Maintenance: Like reclaimed bricks, they may require specific cleaning techniques to preserve their character while maintaining structural integrity.
  • Cost Considerations: Although these bricks provide eco-friendly and aesthetic benefits, they may be slightly more expensive due to their age, quality, and sustainable sourcing.

Care and Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance are essential to preserving Sunset Ridge Brick’s beauty and durability, mainly due to its reclaimed nature. 

Regular cleaning is recommended to remove dust and debris, but non-abrasive methods are essential to avoid damaging the surface. A mild detergent and soft brush are ideal for most cleaning tasks. 

If your bricks are exposed to the elements, consider applying a breathable sealant to protect them from moisture while allowing the brick to retain its natural appearance. For outdoor applications such as fire pits or facades, inspect periodically for any signs of weathering or mortar deterioration, addressing these issues early to prevent further damage. 

Avoiding harsh chemicals is crucial, as these can erode the surface and compromise the brick’s integrity.
