Choosing and selecting bricks for your house – Why concrete bricks are best
One of the more desirable properties of concrete bricks is their strength. Unlike clay bricks, concrete bricks continue to gain strength over time, and concrete Bricks are manufactured to have high strength. When it comes to the force of nature in Australia, it is essential for brickwork to be resistant and durable.
Concrete Brick Versus Clay Brick
The building process is extensive; there are so many material choices and options. When it comes to coloured bricks, is concrete or clay better?
If your building project is in Australia, durability & quality are going to be two significant vital factors. Concrete Bricks are built from concrete, of course, and concrete is known for its strength and durability; concrete bricks will outlast clay bricks.
The process that clay bricks go through for manufacturing is impressive; however, the colour of all clay bricks is only on the surface, which means it is very noticeable if clay bricks get chipped. Concrete bricks mix the colour oxide into the wet material during manufacturing, meaning the entire brick is one solid colour. Therefore, this means chipping is not so much a pronounced issue.
The style of your home is an essential part of the building. When it comes to aesthetic variety, concrete brick is an ideal option. The face of concrete bricks is not limited to a smooth face; it can be honed, polished and more to create the desired look. Clay brick does not have this option.
