HI, I’m looking for suppliers In the SF Bay area for non standard type of bricks. The local lumber yards and Home Depots have the standard clay bricks and the retro rustic looking ones where they tumble them in lime but I’m looking for more fancy styles, not sure what yet. I want to shop around. I’m thinking of styles that look more natural like brownstone or sandstone types that were used on turn of the century styles archicture (I’m thinking of styles I’ve seen in Brooklyn as well as our own Stanford University Quad). May be granite or field stone. I not having any luck looking for these styles and though I realize that the above mentioned types may not be available any more, I’ll take a look at approximations or close matches. Any one have any Ideas for The Bay Area for suppliers.
Thanks

charles, if you can't find it at the box stores, or at lumber yards (see brick, block and stone suppliers) and have a computer, why not search it out using google or the other search engines? Here's from the first page to pop up. You'll have to glean the brick places from the other things.

Thanks much. I guess I don't have the hang of this internet thing quite as yet.
Is that domestic or imported. Larger or Ale?
charles, I'm sorry if I was gruff, I am certainly no brain with this stuff either, but since you're offering...........View Image a local brew to you, Anchor Steam?__________________________________________
