Frequently Asked Questions

Is Hamsey Mixed Stock suitable for exposed or coastal conditions?

Yes — with its **F2 durability rating**, it’s designed for external exposure, including frost cycles. In coastal or particularly demanding environments, good detailing (cavity design, flashings, drainage, quality mortar) becomes even more essential to preserve performance.

How noticeable is the tone variation across the wall?

Because it’s a **mixed stock brick**, you will see gentle variation in red and accent tones. To prevent clustering or “colour bands,” it’s best to **mix bricks from multiple packs** while laying so the variation distributes naturally.

Does the 12 % absorption make the brick vulnerable to moisture problems?

A **? 12 % absorption** rate is quite reasonable for facing bricks. While absorption is one factor, the wall’s resilience to damp depends more on correct construction—adequate cavity, flashing, weep holes, and proper mortar are more critical.
