CUSTOMERS COMMENTS -

Here's recent customers comments below and please view the brick project in the "customers projects" gallery

Stuart A, Felixstowe - 10th March 2021

I was looking for 2 matching Victorian doors to finish my house off and after much searching online I came across these guys. Sent them an email with dimensions and requirements and I got a message back the next morning with photos.. they matched exactly other doors I have. We agreed a price and they even arranged the courier delivery for me. Fantastic service and will no doubt be looking at what else they have and hope to take a trip to their site when restrictions allow. Thanks R&S, great job.

Hi,

A few months ago I bought 250 wire cut reds from you to make a patio. I just wanted to let you know how pleased I was with the bricks. They cleaned up really well and the patio looks very good.

The quality of the bricks was also excellent, in the end there was only one of the 250 I could not use - probably better than a pallet of new bricks

I've attached a couple of photos of the patio, also one of a wall we built last year using your multibricks.

I'll certainly come to Reclaim and Salvage again if I have another project.

Regards

D B, Geldeston.
