Frequently Asked Questions

How many bricks do I need for my pattern?
Our design team will calculate the exact brick count based on your chosen pattern and installation size — just share your available space, and we’ll handle the math.

Can I combine multiple patterns in one installation?
Yes — many organizations mix patterns, like a herringbone walkway leading into a circular donor plaza, to create visual variety within a single project.

Do different patterns cost more than others?
Pattern choice itself doesn’t change the price of your bricks — cost depends mainly on brick size, quantity, and any custom cuts needed for more intricate layouts like circular designs.

Can I see my pattern before committing to an order?
Yes — our design team provides a custom layout mockup so you can see exactly how your chosen pattern will look before your organization finalizes the project.

What’s the best pattern for a small space, like a single walkway?
Running bond is usually the easiest and most cost-effective choice for smaller or narrower installations, since it requires the fewest custom cuts.

Can I add a pattern to an existing walkway or wall?
In many cases, yes — our team can work with your existing space to recommend a pattern that fits, whether you’re starting from scratch or adding onto something already there.

In addition to the installation layout, our designers will work with you to select the size, shape and color of your specific fundraising bricks or tiles. Our diverse offering of brick and tile styles, colors, and sizes will help ensure that your brick or tile represent your organization’s personality.
