Imperial Bricks, the leading traditional handmade
brick supplier, has updated the app to help housebuilders and developers
identify the right brick for their projects.
Whether out on site or in the office, the app makes it
easy to view Imperial’s entire range of bricks and the relevant technical data.
The app is now available on Android through the Google Play
store as well as iTunes,
thanks to popular demand from customers.
With almost 1,500 downloads to date, users can upload
a picture of existing brickwork, and Imperial Bricks’ expert team will email
the closest brick from its range – usually an exact match, and free samples are
available on request. Enter the dimensions of a wall, and the built-in brick
calculator will determine how many bricks are required in either imperial or
metric sizes. Users can also specify the brickwork bond – or pattern - used for
an accurate estimation.
It’s easy to source and compare bricks (including
brick slips, ‘specials’ and pavers) by region, size, colour, level of
weathering and texture. Users can request samples, brochures or even a site
visit to determine the best brick.
Jason Hughes, MD of Imperial Bricks says: “Our
in-house team are experts on helping customers choose the right bricks. The
Brick Matcher app is a great tool to find the perfect match for existing
brickwork on refurb projects or to ensure a new build ‘blends in’ with
surrounding properties, adding kerb appeal and value.”
Imperial Bricks offers excellent lead times and
bespoke blending or weathering across its whole range of handmade, wirecut and
pressed bricks. Visit the iTunes store and search for ‘Brick Matcher’ to
download the iOS app, or the Google Play store for the new Android version.
