Brick Tinting from Bricks UK available at http://www.extensionmatch.co.uk/motartinting.html
Brick tinting has been used for decades by brick and masonry manufacturers and also by many developers on new house sites when there are problems between different batches of manufactured bricks, delivered on site which causes slight shade and colour differences between one lorry load of bricks and another. Tinting is then used to match the affected bricks to the colour of the original bricks, seamlessly blending the different batches together.
We do not "paint" the brick with pre-set coloured paints, the process is a chemical and oxide solution involving various colour dyes. Each match is unique and the dye is mixed on site by our specialists once they have assessed the required colours to match, including and varying blends. Matching and creating the colour on site ensures that we get the exact colour dye solution to match your individual brick in your individual situation.
The solutions change the produced colour of the brick, it is not a paint simply applied to the face of the brick, it will naturally whether just as the normal brick would, mature over the years. All work is fully guaranteed for the life of the brick.There are thousands of different bricks on the UK market and many have come and gone, this together with individual weathering and batching situations during build means that set brick colours would not do the job, each Extension Match project is different, bespoke.This finish of this joint is flush with the brick work, smoothed off with a rag. This finish should only be used for brickwork above water level.
