Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Is the size of this brick different from standard bricks? This brick measures 220 x 100 x 70mm, which is a standard South African brick size. It integrates easily into most construction plans and works perfectly with standard 10mm mortar joints.

 

2. What color mortar should I use with Ivory Travertine? For a contemporary, seamless look, many builders use a white or light-colored mortar. Using standard dark grey mortar will create a high-contrast look that emphasizes the individual brick shapes.

3. Do I need to seal these bricks? Clay face bricks are naturally durable and do not require sealing. However, in high-pollution or high-dust areas, a clear masonry sealer can help keep the light-colored surface looking pristine for longer.

4. Can I use these for a fireplace? Yes, they are excellent for the exterior decorative facing of a fireplace. However, for the internal firebox where there is direct flame contact, you must use specialized Fire Bricks.
