What is the difference between a block wall and a brick wall?

Blocks are bigger than bricks but are generally unfinished, so will need a separate finish being applied such as render. Brick walls are self-finished and attractive in their organic state and can be used in a number of ways with pleasing results.

Why should you choose a block or brick wall?

Blocks are generally a cheaper option although they do require finishing when the structure is complete; bricks give an immediate attractive result that pairs well with any age of property. Garden or exterior walls can be constructed with perishable materials such as timber sleepers or logs, however a block or brick wall is a more permanent option and is less susceptible to rot or water damage.

Personalise your space

The beauty of a block-built wall is that it can be finished in a number of ways to suit the aesthetic of your outdoor space and garden style, and is ideal for when you need strength in a structure like in a load bearing wall for example.

A brick wall can be built using different bonds, contrasting bricks and finishes, or even with arches or recesses to create a truly personal feature wall in your garden or outdoor space.
