Delaware Brick Company, established in 1946, has a rich history rooted in brick manufacturing and distribution. Founded by John G. Schauber in New Castle, Delaware, the company initially focused on producing its own bricks while also distributing products from other manufacturers in the region. Over the decades, Delaware Brick strategically expanded its reach, opening sales offices in key locations like Wilmington and Dover during the 1950s and 1960s, which significantly enhanced its presence in the commercial market.
In 1979, the company shifted its focus away from manufacturing to representing major brick and stone producers from across the United States. By securing exclusive rights to these products, Delaware Brick was able to further develop its business in Maryland, strengthening its foothold in both the commercial and residential sectors. Notably, in 1994, it launched a sales division in Chestertown, Maryland, showcasing its commitment to meeting diverse customer needs.
Delaware Brick now operates four yards, allowing it to serve a wide geographic area from Delaware County in Pennsylvania throughout the State of Delaware and into the Eastern Shore of Maryland. Their extensive product offerings include natural stone, masonry supplies, and custom installations such as kitchens and countertops. By leveraging deep industry knowledge and experience, the company prides itself on not just selling products but collaborating with architects, builders, and homeowners to achieve aesthetic and functional goals.
Whether for commercial or residential projects, Delaware Brick remains dedicated to delivering quality materials and exceptional service, transforming spaces with elegance and enduring beauty.
