You might not think twice about concrete blocks, but here’s the truth – they’re one of the most versatile and hard-working materials on-site.
And if you’re a TAG member, you’re in luck. National Masonry, a TAG Preferred Supplier, has a prepaid deal just for you – making it easier (and cheaper) to get what you need for your next job.
So, what’s the deal with concrete blocks?
They’re not just grey lumps of concrete. They’re strong, reliable, and made to last – perfect for building houses, schools, commercial projects, and retaining walls. Whether you’re working on external load-bearing walls or something decorative, concrete blocks are a smart choice.
National Masonry blocks are:
- Lightweight but high strength
- Easy to lay (modular sizing)
- Reinforced with steel and grout for serious structural support
- Made from cement, sand, recycled materials and more – formed under high pressure
More Than Just One Type
You’ve got options – heaps of them. Think different shapes, sizes, colours, textures and finishes. From basic grey to designer-style blocks, there’s a look and feel for every kind of build.
Want a clean, modern look? Go for polished or smooth finish blocks.
Chasing a bold, rugged style? Split-face or shot-blast might be the go.
Why tradies rate concrete blocks
- Strong and durable
- Weather, fire and termite resistant
- Great insulation – keeps buildings cooler in summer and warmer in winter
- Blocks noise better than most materials
- Low maintenance and low install costs
- Tough enough for cyclones, especially in tropical QLD
- Suitable for load-bearing and non-load-bearing jobs
- Won’t rust, rot or grow mould
- Can be left natural, rendered, or painted – depending on the look you’re after
What’s the cost?
They’re solid value. Yes, they might cost a bit more up front than brick or timber, but they last way longer and need less upkeep. Over time, they’ll save you money – and the job gets done faster too.
