Brick floors: A Superior Brick Flooring Option
Natural brick’s aesthetic appeal has made it a popular and favored building material for centuries for home construction and residential restorations. Brick flooring may be a pleasant accent to almost any space, whether your home has ancient historic charm, traditional furnishings, or a more modern and informal appearance.
Brick flooring tiles, often known as brick pavers, offer several customization options. You can customize your brick tiles by selecting the base color, texture, color mix, grout/mortar color, and finish/sealant.
When working with our thin brick veneer tiles, there are hundreds of potential design alternatives. Various tile centers also offer their customers the option of imprinting bespoke stamps or designs onto their brick tiles. This results in a very unique brick that will leave a lasting impression in your home.
While hardwood and laminate floors come in a variety of pattern options, because they are mass-produced, they cannot be individually tailored like our handcrafted thin brick tiles. No other flooring material can equal the warmth and unique character of your brick tiles.
Another advantage of laying a thin brick floor is its ease of installation. Our thin brick tiles are installed similarly to any other tile using an adhesive such as mortar. They are water resistant once sealed, but we recommend applying a sealer every few years to ensure continuous dirt and water resistance.
When properly sealed, rick flooring is less prone to water damage than real hardwood flooring, making it a superior choice for both bathroom and kitchen applications.

Brick floors will gradually deteriorate, resulting in a subtle weathered or aged appearance that many customers believe adds to the character and charm of their floor’s design.
Another advantage of brick flooring is that it is naturally fire resistant. If a fire breaks out in your home, brick flooring will assist keep the flames from spreading throughout the space. Brick is also resistant to burn marks caused by dropping hot things by accident. Laminate and hard wood flooring, on the other hand, are not naturally fireproof. Although some materials may be treated with fire-resistant sealants, they will not withstand a fire as well as brick floors.
