Old Mill lands three-year supply deal with Century Communities

Old Mill Building Products has signed a three-year national supply agreement with Century Communities for thin brick, natural stone and two masonry installation systems. The deal is designed to cut installation time and labor costs across select homebuilding projects.

Why it matters: - Century Communities is a top-10 U.S. production homebuilder, so the agreement gives Old Mill Building Products access to a large, national customer base. - The deal ties product sales to installation efficiency, which can affect construction schedules and labor costs at scale. - For homebuilders facing material price pressure, systems that reduce labor and time can improve project economics even if they do not lower raw material costs.

What happened: - Old Mill Building Products announced a three-year national supply agreement with Century Communities, Inc. on September 22, 2026. - The agreement covers thin brick, natural stone, Brickwebb and the Panel+ Wall System. - Century Communities will use the products in select developments and product lines. - The supply arrangement is national in scope.

The details: - Century Communities selected Old Mill for its masonry offerings and for the chance to reduce installation time and labor costs. - Century Communities also chose natural stone from Old Mill, expanding exterior façade and architectural finish options. - Brickwebb mounts thin brick on mesh sheets so installers can place multiple bricks at once while keeping spacing consistent. - The Panel+ Wall System supports thin brick and compatible stone veneers. - Panel+ integrates continuous insulation, alignment guides and drainage features to reduce installation steps and labor demands. - Old Mill describes Panel+ as a leader in insulated masonry veneer wall systems. - The company said its products give Century Communities complementary options for achieving the intended appearance while supporting efficient construction. - The agreement includes coordinated support for design, specification, training and field execution. - That support is intended to help Century Communities move from material selection to installation with consistent results across participating communities. - Old Mill said the partnership reflects a shared focus on quality, efficiency and long-term partnership. - Old Mill CEO Tyler Webster said Century Communities is known for disciplined execution and national scale. - Webster said Old Mill’s systems were built to support builders that need repeatable results, dependable supply and consistent field performance.

Between the lines: - The agreement shows how masonry suppliers are competing on installation systems, not just materials. - For large builders, faster installation and lower labor needs can matter as much as the finished look. - Old Mill is positioning its product lineup as a way to preserve the appearance of brick and stone while making those materials easier to use in production housing. - The partnership also suggests Century Communities is standardizing some material choices across markets to improve execution.

What's next: - Old Mill and Century Communities will coordinate on design, specification, training and field support. - Participating Century Communities developments are expected to use Old Mill products as the agreement rolls out. - The companies did not disclose financial terms of the deal.

The bottom line: - Old Mill won a three-year national foothold with one of the country’s biggest homebuilders by selling both masonry materials and a way to install them more efficiently.
