Lakshmi Darga Fal G Brick Industry

Our yard is Lakshmi Darga Fal G Brick Industry, and you can find us at 4-46-203 on Sankavaram Road in Kathipudi. We spend most of our days out in the sun dealing with the brick-making machines. It's a loud place most of the time because of the equipment running. We’ve been at this location for a good while, so most neighbors are used to the noise. Making these bricks takes a lot of water and earth, and we're always trying to get the mix right. It’s not always easy when the rain starts coming down unexpectedly. We just cover everything up and wait for it to pass. My cousin and a few local guys help me out with the daily chores. We don't really do much advertising or anything. Usually, people just drive down Sankavaram Road and see the stacks of bricks piled up near the gate. Sometimes the orders are big, and other times it's just someone needing a few dozen for a small repair. We treat every day about the same. It's just about getting the work done before the sun goes down. There’s no fancy lobby or air conditioning here. Just the shed and the open area where the bricks sit out to dry. It's a simple life, and we like being part of the Kathipudi community this way. We just keep our heads down and worry about the next batch of bricks we have to fire up.
