BRICK MATCHING

At McGoverns, we firmly believe that a house should be a cohesive and harmonious whole, rather than a patchwork of mismatched materials. After all, who wants to live in a home with an extension that sticks out like a sore thumb? That's why we make brick matching a top priority in every project we undertake.

Our confidence in this approach comes from our extensive experience in the building trade, which spans an impressive 74 years. Over this time, we have developed a deep understanding of bricks and their properties, enabling us to expertly match them to any existing structure.

Moreover, we have a few secret weapons up our sleeves - namely, Grant, Paul, and Steve, who we affectionately refer to as our “brick encyclopaedias”.These individuals possess a wealth of knowledge and expertise in the realm of bricks, which they apply to every project we undertake. With their guidance, we are confident in our ability to deliver a finished product that is both visually stunning and structurally sound.

SAY HELLO TO THE BRICK ENCYCLOPAEDIAS

We at McGovern are proud to have a team of seasoned professionals who have dedicated their careers to the art of brick matching. Our team comprises three experts - Grant, Paul, and Steve - each with a vast knowledge of bricks and a passion for ensuring the perfect match for our clients.
