Rubbed and Gauged Specials

We use authentic TLB Red Rubber brick earth in crafting our rubbed and gauged specials. Lambs is the sole manufacturer of TLB Red Rubbers. These fine soft clay bricks have been used across London and the South since the 1700s. Our rubbed and gauged specials are approved for use on listed buildings, and can be shaped to your specifications or to precisely match any originals. Rubbed bricks are soft bricks that are cut, carved or rubbed to shape. They are usually installed with very narrow joints and are often used to make gauged brick arches. We carry stocks of uncut rubbers to enable us to deliver orders for rubbed and gauged specials in days rather than months. Before producing the specials you need, we prefer to visit your site to see how and where they will be used. Our handmade soft red rubbers are ideal for intricate brick carvings too.
