Bringing the Timeless Look of Brick Indoors
Exposed brick is a timeless look that adds texture, warmth, and a sense of history. Paint and wallpaper simply cannot replicate the look of real brick.
Don't worry, you don't need a mason to tear apart your home to achieve that look. At Ferrell Builders’ Supply, we specialize in Thin Brick Veneers—genuine clay brick sliced thin, allowing for easy installation on almost any interior wall.
The Kitchen Backsplash: Durability Meets Design
Standard tile is predictable. A brick backsplash using products from Brampton Brick or Glen-Gery creates a rugged, "bistro" feel.
-
The Tech Specs: Because it is real fired clay, it is heat-resistant and incredibly durable behind a range.
-
Pro Tip: Use a high-quality masonry sealer to ensure grease and splashes wipe away easily.
The Ultimate Feature Wall: Living Rooms & Fireplaces
Floor-to-ceiling brick is the ultimate focal point. Whether you prefer the clean lines of a "Modular Brick" or the tumbled, antique look of "Reclaimed Brick," thin veneers are lightweight enough to be installed over standard drywall (with proper substrate preparation).
Why Choose Veneer over "Faux" Brick?
At Ferrell, we believe in the real thing. Unlike plastic or foam "brick-look" panels, our thin veneers are:
-
Authentic: They feature the same mineral variations and kiln-fired textures as structural brick.
-
Value-Adding: Real masonry is a premium material that increases home appraisal value.
-
Eco-Friendly: Natural clay is sustainable and improves indoor air quality by being VOC-free.
Can I DIY Thin Brick?
Yes! Installing thin brick is very similar to tiling.
-
Prep: Ensure your surface is clean and level.
-
Adhere: Use a high-bond thin-set mortar.
-
Grout: Use a grout bag to fill the joints with actual masonry mortar for that authentic "deep-joint" look.
-
Finish: Seal the brick to prevent dust and staining.
