What is Solid Masonry Block?

Durable and versatile, the solid block possesses the same properties as the concrete block, only its cavities are filled with concrete. Concrete blocks are primarily used as a building material in the construction of walls. The majority of concrete blocks have one or more hollow cavities with smooth sides or with a design. Blocks are stacked on top of or beside each other and held together with Type S concrete mortar to form the required length and height of the wall. Blocks come in a variety of sizes, blended colours, and finishes. Check out our selection of standard, lightweight, architectural, and profile series blocks today.
