Look around in demolition yards. Read advertisements in papers, people very often sell for fraction of price or giveaway exactly this type of old bricks, and other great building material left over from other projects or from cleaning up. There are always few firebrick replacements to be seen here you just have to watch it. You can buy 200 of them even for 20 or 30 bucks in total and have lucky day. By the way these old bricks can be easily cleaned with hammer and brush because in the past brickies didn’t add much cement into mortar if any. Tables with firebricks physical properties.

Where is the closest place I can get refractory cement from as I live in York Western Australia.

Did you check under ‘Refractories’ suppliers in phone book, or ‘Heat Resistant’ material?
I will ask Mark if he doesn’t know a place there around you. Have you located firebricks?

Hi Colin, Firebricks in WA are a hard thing to source but I do know of a place that does supply them, The Potters Market 56 Stockdale Rd O’Connor,Tel No 93376888.I cant tell you how much they charge per brick but I do know in comparrison to prices paid in other states from refractory suppliers direct they are a bit more expensive.When I built my oven 3 years ago I used normal solid bricks ” Austral Collie ” which is a cream solid .My oven is as good today as when I built it, Hope that helps Mark

PS They also can supply your fireclay needs

Hi Colin,
Yes the midland clay bricks Mark mentioned that he used for building his oven in Western Australia are almost identical to clay firebricks from Ipswich, they contain grog in the body as well. You can use them. Then there are solid clay bricks from Midlands somewhere, they are the same, can get the contact details if you needed. Maybe far from York?

supplies in USA ; if you live in or near Maryland, you can get Mt. Savage “Medium Duty” fireclay bricks (43.1% alumina content) at Potomac Valley Brick and Supply Company. They come in yellow or red. I got mine at the Rockville, MD location (3 Derwood Circle), for $1.33/brick. They also sell the fireclay mortar in pre-mixed tubs. The bricks I bought there differ in dimensions (height) from the Australian ones (2.5 inches vs. 3 inches).
Thanks to Rado for all the help!!!

I have looked locally in Western Australia – Perth:
Potter’s Market at $3.95 per brick;
Ian Mears at $3.88 per brick (smaller than normal 230x115x60);
Veolia Refractories $7.80 per brick;
Eastern States (prices including shipping cost to WA):
Darley Refractories at $6.57 per brick;
Claypave works at $4.77 per brick;
Shipping makes it very expensive to get firebricks to Perth unless you order larger quantity of course.
I have found someone who has a small quantity of leftover firebricks with 45% alumina content and is selling it for $0.50 per brick. I am a bit worried about the higher alumina content and its higher heat conductivity causing bread to burn at the bottom.
Fondu cement ($40) is much more expensive than Portland cement ($6), but as you say, if I want to use it -it is just a small slab. I believe I will need about 4 bags of cement.

Today I bought 7 bags of Vermiculite from “The Perlite & Vermiculite Factory” at address “Lot 802 Cutler Rd, Jandakot 6164, Western Australia” phone number 08 9417 8377. The price was $15 cash per 100L bag. This was very cheap compared to some Perth hydroponics shops who sell vermiculite in the 100L bag for $40.
Best regards
