This is how we made BRAND NEW BRICK fit into this established neighborhood. @usbrick

If white brick is on your radar, read these 6 things that no one really talks about (but they should!)👇 1️⃣ Natural White Brick (like Belle Meade) means no painting or repainting - ever. Our color is baked on, meaning it won’t peel off or need paint overtime.👩‍🎨 2️⃣ The undertones of a white brick come from the natural clay body color. Belle Meade (shown here) has a neutral tan body whereas Magnolia brick has a brown body, and Avalon has red. 3️⃣ For the MOST cohesive overall white brick exterior, go with an ivory or white mortar. (Ivory usually creates the brightest overall appearance - more on this 🔗 in our stories today!) 4️⃣ Red clay from construction sites can quickly stain the bottom of a brick house, but your landscaping will likely hide it.🌳 If you want to prevent this entirely, lay down straw or plastic beforehand! 5️⃣ Construction or moisture stains are bound to happen with any material, but they’re super easy to combat and remove with brick. A pro masonry cleaner during or after install will do the trick! 6️⃣ White brick looks darker after it rains - don’t panic! It returns to normal as soon as it dries.💨✔️ Miss anything you’ve been curious about? We’re all ears ~ drop your questions below!

Foundation is being laid at our Lexington project. Saddle Run brick from @usbrick with Savannah Ivory mortar

In downtown Charleston where historic homes sit shoulder to shoulder, an empty parcel of land is almost unheard of. Yet for decades, a sliver of unoccupied space remained in Radcliffeborough, one of the city’s most established historic neighborhoods.⚜️ Due to its non-conforming 30’ x 100’ footprint and strict zoning and preservation regulations, it was largely avoided until Boyd Architects took on the challenge in 2025. They looked to the formal Charleston Single House, pulling key elements from the classic structure to create a modern interpretation that now sits comfortably between its historic neighbors.🏡 The Radcliffe House is clad in Belle Meade brick, laid in horizontal and vertical running bond patterns to create subtle shadow play across the home. Around the openings, Flemish bonds with recessed headers serve as a nod to the historic shutters commonly seen in the area.

Save these tips for when you’re tasked with making exterior selections! 1. Before breaking ground, determine what your material options are.🧱 Ask your builder or supplier what’s available because understanding what’s feasible upfront WILL save you from falling in love with something that may not be available. 2. Sampling takes time, but it’s worth it!🎨 Builders often work on a tight schedule so it’s always wise to plan ahead. Visit a showroom and ask for addresses that use the materials you’re considering. This is often the fastest way to narrow down a handful of options. 3. Request site panels for your final picks‼️ Once you’ve narrowed it to 1-2 combos, ask for sample panels built on your lot. You’ll see exactly how the brick and mortar look together in your lighting, on your property.
