Brick slips are an excellent option for those who want to renovate a facade. These thin bricks make it possible to give your facade a new look without losing space or having to give up the brick appearance of the house.
But how exactly does renovating a facade with brick slips work? And what do these brick slips cost? You can read about it below.
What Exactly are Brick Slips?
If you choose to address the facade during renovation works, you have a choice of several types of facade cladding. In addition to render or decorative plaster, brick slips are also often used. Brick slips are ideal for those who want to give the facade a makeover but don’t want to change the typical brick appearance.
Brick slips are thin bricks that you cannot distinguish from real, wide bricks. They are only two centimeters thick. The advantage: a new facade, against the old facade, hardly takes up any space. This way, you may not need to move the windows and the facade takes up less space.
Why Choose a Facade Renovation with Brick Slips?
Brick slips are popular for those renovating the facade. The main reason why renovators choose this is to renovate without changing the look and style of the house . But there are even more advantages. They are particularly strong and excellently resistant to rain, hail, and snow. You will also barely lose any space, making the renovation less intrusive.
Brick Slips are Available in all Colors and Textures
Moreover, the range is very extensive. Regardless of the style in which your house is built, you will always find a suitable type of brick slip. You can order any kind of brick you can imagine as a brick slip. A rustic brick or a sleek, black, low brick, it’s all possible. Natural stone, concrete, and even synthetic facade claddings are also among the possibilities.
Tip: Combine with Facade Insulation
If you decide to renovate the facade, we strongly recommend you to consider facade insulation as well. Facade insulation is applied directly to the old facade. We then cover this insulation layer with the slips. The facade renovation will take up more space, but you will save significantly on your energy bill. About 30 percent of the heat generated in your home escapes through the facade. Thanks to facade insulation, combined with brick slips, you will see your energy bill decrease significantly.

Moreover, each type of brick slip has a different price tag. We’d be happy to provide you with more information about the various possibilities.
