Breeze Block Maintenance Guide

Clay Imports Breeze Blocks are composed of natural terracotta. Though breeze blocks are durable, depending on your application, maintenance is recommended to ensure that your installation looks great for years to come.

Maintenance is especially helpful with outdoor applications, specifically installations that are exposed to harsh sunlight, freeze/thaw conditions and rainwater. Regular cleaning and inspecting of your wall can help in the upkeep of the look and integrity of your breeze blocks in addition to avoiding costly maintenance in the future.
