"Residents who have expressed concerns about the appearance of a new school wall in Putney will have spotted that action has now been taken to make the wall blend into its surroundings more easily."

Dyebrick products were chosen to 'age' the new wall to produce a more sympathetic appearance more suited to the surrounding period properties.

Dale Dempsey, who has been tinting bricks for over 30 years, carried out the work on behalf of Wandsworth Council. The process is known as Soot Washing, (or 'sooting').

Dyebrick have two products for this ageing process, one called 'Soot Wash' and a less intense product called 'Brick-Age'. It was the Brick-Age product that was used for this project.

Although the majority of this work was carried out a few months ago, the finishing touches are being carried out this week.

Fantastic results can be achieved with Dyebrick Brick Stain Kits... all you need is artistic flair......and a little patience!

Lisa and Darren share a dream of converting a coach house in East Sussex into a unique family home, under the watchful eye of George Clarke, Channel 4's Restoration Man.

Dyebrick was used to great effect when a solution was required to disguise some obvious repair work that could be seen for miles!

The old Horton Kirby paper mill chimney in Dartford Kent was refurbished by Churchill Steeplejacks as part of a new residential development by Fairview Homes.

The brick chimney standing at 75m tall was also slightly reduced in height by a Churchills. Once the chimney had been reduced to the required height the summit was be capped off, and a new lightning protection system was installed.

Dyebrick 'Brick-Age' was used for some of the new brick-up areas at the base and 'Charcoal' and 'Khaki' Brick Tinting Kits were used for tinting the old crack repair.

Tommy's television series 'Tommy's Fix Your House For Free?' is being run again on Discovery Realtime.

The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation reconstructed Richard Charlton’s 18th-century coffeehouse—which, is the only authentic 18th-century coffeehouse in the United States. the grand opening is on Friday, November 20, 4:00 p.m.

Dyebrick products were used on the cosmetic renovation to the foundation walls.

Brick mason Ray Canetti stained the bricks sympathetically to create an authetic and natural recreation of how the Coffeehouse would have looked when first built.

Dyebrick is specified for use in conservation projects, as the physical properties of the masonry are not altered. For more information about the Coffee House renovation click here.
