Q: Summing it up: Should I own a brick house?

• <div><p>If you want to make your home eco-friendly, enjoy low maintenance, and love the fact that its looks will take people&rsquo;s breath away (and not because they were trying to blow your house down), then a modern brick home is right for you. You can hire a mason to get the building process started for your brick home.</p><p>But if you&rsquo;re not fond of the color and don&rsquo;t want to deal with the process of repointing or other repairs, consider going with vinyl or wood. These materials offer a lower cost. While they tend to require more maintenance, they don&rsquo;t cost nearly the same as exterior brick house repair.</p></div>

Q: Should I drill into the brick or the mortar joints?

• <div><p>You should generally drill into the mortar joints when installing shutters on brick. Mortar is softer, which makes drilling easier and puts less strain on your tools. It also lowers the risk of cracking a brick&mdash;something that&rsquo;s a lot harder to fix. Mortar holds fasteners well enough for standard shutters, and if you ever need to patch the holes later, it&rsquo;s a much simpler job than dealing with damaged brick. Just keep in mind that if your mortar joints are too thin or the hardware calls for <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-anchors-for-brick.htm">brick anchoring</a>, you'll need to check the manufacturer&rsquo;s recommendations and adjust accordingly.</p></div>

Q: Do cracks in brick always mean foundation problems?

• <div><p>New constructions need time to &ldquo;settle&rdquo; and sometimes, small hairline cracks occur as a result. Larger horizontal or &ldquo;stair step&rdquo; cracks, however, are usually a sign of a deeper, more severe issue. It could indicate an issue with the soil beneath the home, a problem caused by an overgrown tree, or another problem.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between stucco and mortar?

• <div><p>Mortar, or masonry mortar, is mainly used in joints and as parging for stone, brick, or cement construction. Stucco is primarily a surface material used as wall coverings. For maintenance, masonry will need repointing or replacing as damage or land shifting occurs, whereas stucco will need patching or refinishing as it tends to crack over time along with other types of wear-and-tear.</p></div>

Q: How far should a brick mailbox be from the home?

• <div><p>The United States Postal Service (USPS) recommends placing a mailbox 6 inches to 8 inches back from the curb. If your lot is unusual, speak with town authorities or the local post office to determine the correct placement.</p></div>

"The concrete was removed and pavers were put in less than 3 days. They look great. Workers showed up early and worked constantly. They were very polite and answered any questions I had about the process. I knew exactly what to expect each day as the leader not only talked to me in person, but kept in touch via text."
