Building a compound wall to surround your residential or commercial property is now cost-effective! The best way to do it is by using Toughie interlocking bricks.
Manufactured with soil, cement, and sand, Toughie interlocking bricks are moulded into a specific shape that allows them to lock together without using mortar. This reduces the need for skilled labour and reduces the cost of construction. As the bricks are also lightweight, they are easy to handle and transport.
The process of building a compound wall with Toughie interlocking bricks is relatively simple! First, cement mortar is laid on top of the foundation and then normal-fired bricks are then placed in one layer on this. Interlocking bricks are then placed on it with each brick being carefully positioned to lock into the ones around it & the wall is built up in this manner. Cement mortar is laid only in the first layer and the last layer of the compound wall.
The main advantage of utilising Toughie interlocking bricks in compound walls is that they are durable and long-lasting and they are resistant to termite infestation and heat. The bricks are also able to survive extreme weather conditions like heavy rain, strong winds, and high temperatures.
Interlocking bricks are also eco-friendly! They are made from locally sourced materials like soil which reduce the carbon footprint. The material of interlocking bricks and the method of construction is low cost and create minimal environmental impact. Nevertheless, it also provides comparable quality to conventional fired brick construction. Interlocking bricks also allow for good drainage, preventing waterlogging and erosion.
Adding aesthetic appeal to a compound wall is easy with interlocking bricks! They come in a variety of colors, sizes, and patterns, and this makes it effortless to blend the compound wall with the surrounding architecture.
To sum it up, using interlocking bricks to construct a compound wall is a low-cost, durable and eco-friendly alternative to traditional construction methods. Easy to install, they enhance the aesthetics of the property as well.
