No, Brick it does not offer installation services. We believe it would be unethical to compete with the contractors and professionals who are our valued customers. That said, we have deep roots in the masonry contracting field, and our panel system was initially developed for our use. Before we ever sold it, we installed it ourselves, which is how we know it works. Our products are contractor-tested and proven in real-world applications.
While Brick It does work with a network of resellers, most do not stock our products regularly and often place orders or request samples from us only as needed. In most cases, your order will ship from the same facility, regardless of whether it’s put through a distributor or directly with us.
Since you’ve already found us and are visiting our website, the most efficient and cost-effective option is to order directly from Brick It. This eliminates unnecessary intermediaries, reduces potential delays, and gives you full access to our product line, support, and online tools.
The Brick It System was invented by Ron Trezza in the early 1980s. A local cladding contractor with an accounting background and a former football player, alongside the legendary Jim Brown, Ron was inspired to create the system after repeatedly experiencing frustrations with traditional thin brick installations. He developed a working prototype, filed for patents and trademarks, and officially brought the Brick It thin brick panel system to market in 1985.
Ron Trezza was a true innovator in the industry. He remained dedicated to improving building practices until his passing in 2025.
Brick’s vision is to lead the thin brick industry by providing clear answers, reliable solutions, and greater access to high-quality products for customers at every level, from homeowners to contractors and architects. We are also investing in proprietary e-commerce technology explicitly designed for the construction industry. This includes advanced logistics tools that simplify shipping for heavy, dense materials by optimizing LTL and truckload freight solutions, bringing innovation to a traditionally underserved segment of the online commerce industry.
While we’re happy to assist with system-specific component calculations, Brick It does not perform full material take-offs from construction documents. We view it as a conflict of interest to both determine the required quantities and sell the materials for the same project.
Instead, we ask customers to provide basic project information, such as total square footage and linear footage of outside corners. With that, we can accurately assist in calculating quantities for installation systems and accessories.
Determining base material quantities remains the responsibility of the person or party financially accountable for the project, typically the contractor or estimator.
Yes. Brick It features a showroom located in Long Island, New York, where customers can explore a wide selection of thin brick, thin stone, stucco products, and installation systems in person. For those unable to visit, our website offers a highly detailed and informative experience, so comprehensive that even in-person visitors often use it for browsing, planning, and finalizing their selections.
Brick It was established in 1985, when founder Ron Trezza developed the first prototype of the Brick It installation system and filed for a patent. Since then, the company has grown into a trusted industry leader in thin brick innovation, manufacturing, and distribution.
Our Thin Brick Showroom and phone support are available Monday through Friday, from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM.
Our walk-in Contractor’s Store opens earlier and operates Monday through Friday, from 7:00 AM to 4:30 PM.
Brick It stands out as a nationwide leader in thin brick solutions, offering a level of service and product integration that is unmatched in the industry. While small selections of thin brick may be available through general masonry supply yards, these sources often lack the inventory depth, specialization, and turnaround time that today's projects demand.
What sets Brick It apart is our end-to-end offering: a vast selection of thin brick, professional brick cutting services, proprietary installation systems, and advanced logistics tailored specifically to thin brick applications. We are also the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) for many of the products we sell and distribute, including our mounting systems, which gives us unmatched control over quality and availability.
Most importantly, we are not just a reseller. We specialize in thin brick. Unlike general suppliers focused on bulk masonry materials like sand, cement, and standard brick, thin brick is our core business. We even searched internationally and have yet to find a comparable operation offering this level of integration.
Brick It has been proudly serving customers and supplying innovative brick installation systems for nearly 50 years.
