Brick tinting All manner of questions and solutions to problems and issues surrounding the subject of brickwork, blockwork and stonework

My house had an extension some years ago and the upper floor brickwork does not match (lighter although same brick) the lower floor.

Does anyone know if there are any products available to tint the lighter bricks which I could apply myself.

You could try aquaseal,it will coat the bricks with a long lasting silicone film

[marty]

Would this darken the bricks ?

[welsh brickie]

It will slightly darken the bricks and mortar,it might need a couple of coats

I realise this is an old discussion but want to put out here that you can have your brick masonry and mortar any colour you like.
Bebbingtons are the oldest contract brick tinting business in the UK.
Indeed George Bebbington invented the process back in 1968.
