Vintage Brown/Red Faux Brick

WOW! I had struggled finding the right "faux brick" look - wallpaper too shiny, no texture; interlocking panels showed seams, or repeat pattern was painfully obvious, etc. THESE ARE PERFECT! The color is a creamy white and the texture is like a chalky stone. They do flex a little but will snap when bent too far. They feel like a blend of clay with a fine soft fiber embedded in them, only visible when you break them. Cutting them with a box cutter is a breeze - score and snap. You can easily cut out any shape - it carves away easily. They are thin and lightweight. I used adhesive caulking - put a squiggle down the back and put on the wall, then adjusted position as necessary. I did not paint them or use grout but there's enough depth if you wanted to do grout you could. I was just looking for some subtle texture that looked like real brick veneer at a lower cost. Very happy with the product.

I read some reviews that said this product breaks easy and is hard to work with. I definitely disagree. I was extremely easy to work with and I did not break one piece. It is thin and care needs to be taken but I had no problem at all getting it to work for me. It looks very realistic and added a plus to the new fireplace I'm putting in. I will be buying again!!! Thanks for a great product at a great price!!!!

Love the old brick accent. We live in a home that was built in 1918. We wanted to expose the brick from an old wood burning stove, however, we discovered it was not as wide as we hoped. These brick veneers were just the ticket. Very easy to install and was even better than we imagined.

These brick veneers look great. I did the brown/red bricks. I used mortar to attach them to the walls and then the mortar to do a German Schmear style. I absolutely love how they turned out. They are easy to work with and to cut and they look authentic!

I purchased these to resurface an electric fireplace surround. My first box, I LOVED and it looks amazing, so easy to work with. The second box I ordered to finish my project was absolute junk. I’m so disappointed I wasted my money and don’t want to bother to go through the trouble of a return. They are practically crumbling, stuck together and falling apart as you separate them.

These were a fraction of the price of real brick facing and everyone that has seen them thinks they are real. I used thinset to attach and 1/8" spacers for even placement. I waited a week then applied white grout using a round cake decorating tip and disposable icing bag. Cutting was very easy using a straight edge and utility knife. Make sure you have extra blades because the clay will dull them.

I used these faux bricks to create three accent walls in my home, and couldn’t be happier! They were easy to cut, simple to install, and look like real brick. They add the perfect amount of warmth and charm to my space —highly recommend! Install Tips: -Prime your walls -Have a 1 ft and 3 ft level on deck -Don’t overthink it -Trust the process -You only need a dab of thin set mortar on each end and the center to apply the bricks -Mix mortar to a peanut butter consistency (1.5 cups water to 6-7 cups of mortar worked great for me) -Add water to large plastic bucket first and add mortar gradually as you mix -Use a drill mixing paddle to mix -Use a grout bag to apply mortar between bricks when finished -Wear gloves -Have fun! I did start with a laser level but after three rows in living room I started using a 3ft level which was a game changer for me. I didn’t use spacers, I just eyeballed it and used my fingers for spacing. It worked for me. I finished mine with a German Schmear and am so in love!

I can't speak for longevity yet since I just put these up. They are flexible but firm, which I needed for an uneven retaining wall I didn't want to grind down. I used PL500 landscape adhesive and it stuck without slipping. I tried liquid nails and a few other brands of landscape adhesive, none of it held up like PL500. I started with spacers but these are too thin so I gave up and just eyeballed it. A level kept the lines (mostly) straight. I got red and white to vary the color base. I had always planned on painting to try to match my existing brick. Paint and stain adhere beautifully. I think I will seal when I'm done since water and sun beat down here. I used MorFlex sanded caulk as mortar and it feel/looks like the real thing. You could use regular mortar as well. These bricks made it real easy to level out this lumpy humpy wall. It would have cost $2k++ to use pre-made panels and way easier (to me) than thin brick. The 14 sq ft listed is without mortar so you get a little more coverage when you think about that. Not a perfect job on my end but I'm very happy with it so far!!!

Aún no lo he puesto, pero llego muy bien, no son blandos, están un poco rígidos, se ven de buena calidad y buen efecto de apariencia de ladrillo. Ya comentaré después mi experiencia con la instalación.

This Faux Brick, is amazing! Used it for our fireplace. Product is easy to use and looks just like real brick. I highly recommend this product.

Easy to work

A little bit fragile, but they are easy to work with and look good. I glued them on with PL fast grab and supported with pins while it dried. I used the same glue as mortar because it’s in a travel trailer.
