“Ordered twice now, first time was to do a feature wall in our new kitchen, I have never laid a brick slip before so with the bricks I ordered the beginners kit, delivery was bang on time and due to my miscalculation we had a few boxes left over so decided to brick a wall in our extension, again delivery was spot on.”

As the name suggests, a fireplace is somewhere where you light a fire. They were once a main feature of the home but in recent decades, thanks to the introduction of central heating, they have become somewhat redundant. However, they are still a stunning feature that you can take advantage of but before you install brick slips, you need to determine whether it will be a decorative fireplace or a functional one.
If you opt for functional, then you will need to make sure that the brick slips are installed professionally and correctly while they should conform with building regulations.

Fireplaces are a feature in the home that will never age or, become out of date due to the aesthetically pleasing element and the functioning element. Fireplaces have the ability to add character, and charm to any space and there are not many other home features that can do that.
