Frequently Asked Questions

Can Bexhill Red be used in highly exposed or coastal environments?

Yes — its **F2 durability rating** means the brick is suitable for external use even under harsh conditions. In coastal or more extreme locations, careful detailing (flashing, cavity design, weep holes, quality mortar) becomes especially important for long-term performance.

How much variation will there be in the red tone across the wall?

The finish intentionally includes some tonal variation. To avoid visible “colour banding,” it’s best practice to **mix bricks from several packs** during installation so that variation spreads evenly across the wall.

Is a 15 % absorption rate risky in terms of damp over time?

No — **? 15 % absorption** is within common limits for facing bricks. The wall’s resistance to moisture depends far more on correct installation (cavities, flashings, drainage, mortar) than the absorption figure alone.
