W. R. Taylor & Co. has been located in historic downtown Pensacola, Florida for over 100 Years. Our recently remodeled showroom is a state-of-the art brick studio boasting the largest selection of brick in Northwest Florida. Our showroom is also home to high-quality specialty products. Some of the specialty products you will find in our showroom are cultured stone, cast concrete, color mortars, pavers, and fireplace materials.
Our company has come a long way since 1900. It originally began as stables trading in horses, mules, harnesses, hay, feed, and wagons. Wagons were used for deliveries and two of the original wagon wheels still hang in the warehouse today.
Taylor Brick and Tile began in the early 1930′s. The brick were made in round beehive kilns in nearby Barth, Florida and sold from our downtown Pensacola location along with other hardware. Over the years, the horses, tack, and hardware were phased out and brick became our main product.
Our appreciation goes out to William R. Carlson for his recollection of W.R. Taylor & Company’s history, his contribution to this company, and to this page.
