Q: Is brick staining cheaper than painting?

• <div><p>Initially, brick staining is not cheaper than painting. However, while it has a higher up-front cost, it may be more cost-effective in the long run. Brick stain can last for 20 years or longer, compared to paint, which usually starts to peel away in three to five years.</p></div>

Q: Can you enlarge windows in a brick house?

• <div><p>Yes, you can enlarge windows in a brick house. Your masonry contractor will need to cut away exterior brick to make space for the larger window, and you may also need to consult a structural engineer to make sure the window is properly supported inside the frame of the house.</p></div>

Q: Can I attach shutters to brick without drilling?

• <div><p>No, it&rsquo;s not recommended to attach shutters to brick without drilling. Brick is dense and built to last, so adhesives and shortcut methods don&rsquo;t usually cut it. Even heavy-duty glue struggles to hold up over time&mdash;especially against wind, moisture, and temperature changes. Most <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-attach-shutters-to-vinyl-siding.htm">no-drill options are made for materials like vinyl</a> or wood, not solid masonry. Skipping the drill might seem easier, but it puts your shutters&mdash;and anything below them&mdash;at risk. For a secure, lasting install, drilling is the way to go. It takes more effort up front, but the result is safer and more reliable. </p></div>

Q: How often should I clean my home’s brick?

• <div><p>You should clean your home&rsquo;s brick once per year. This applies to exterior brick, but also to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-clean-brick-fireplace.htm">cleaning brick fireplaces</a>. Create a homemade cleaning solution with equal parts vinegar and water. Use a soft-bristle brush to scrub the solution into the face of your brick and remove dirt, algae, and stains. Cleaning will protect brick from damage and boost your home&rsquo;s curb appeal.</p></div>

Q: Is brick staining a good idea?

• <div><p>Yes, staining your home&rsquo;s brick is a great idea if you&rsquo;re looking to freshen up its appearance. It&rsquo;s also helpful for preserving your bricks so they don&rsquo;t crack or chip over time. Finally, staining your bricks is a perfect DIY project, as most handy homeowners can do the project in a few days. </p></div>

"Titan did a magnificent job on my property during the past week. I needed the following done: Grading work on my 3 acre property and three different types of rocks delivered. I also needed additional black dirt brought in to make it perfect. From start to finish the communication was excellent with Will. He let me know what time they would get to my job and everything that was going on during the work process. This is something that a lot of contractors just fail to do in my past experiences. They provide top notch equipment, with many different attachments for various types of jobs during the entire process. This ensures that the job is done correctly, the first time! Lastly, customer service could not be better. They (Will and Tim) stayed with the job until I was completely satisfied. Always keeping a great attitude no matter how many questions I asked. Even going the extra nine yards finishing the job better than I expected. "
