Q: What are the disadvantages of stone houses?

• <div><p>Unfortunately, there are many disadvantages to stone houses. They are slow to build and the materials are pricey, both of which balloon the total cost. Stone walls require a more robust foundation, which costs more to install. Running plumbing, electrical, and HVAC through a stone house is much more difficult too, so homeowners need to seriously consider if the aesthetic benefit is worth the cost of building with stone. One of the<a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/questions-ask-masonry-contractor.htm"> questions to ask a masonry contractor</a> is if a similar aesthetic can be achieved with another material. </p></div>

Q: Can you drill into brick with a regular drill?

• <div><p>You may not need a hammer drill if you&rsquo;re planning on drilling one or two very small diameter holes in brick. For holes with a diameter of 3/16-inch or less, a regular drill with a masonry bit can do the job. However, the bit will heat up quickly, and the process will take significantly longer than with a hammer drill. Prepare to cool your drill bit down in a bucket of water more often. </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>

Q: Are stone houses practical?

• <div><p>Stone houses used to be much more practical, but with the advent of stronger and cheaper materials like concrete, they aren&rsquo;t seen as much anymore. There are some parts of the world where it makes sense to build with stone, and they are usually next to a stone quarry. Stone is, however, very weather-resistant, which is why many homes near the sea and on mountains are still built with local stone. </p></div>

Q: Is it better to paint brick with a roller or brush?

• <div><p>A roller makes an excellent paint tool for brick. Using a roller can ensure the entire surface area gets painted evenly. If you choose a roller for painting brick, go for a thicker option, at least a half-inch. The key to using a roller while painting brick is making sure paint gets into the various crevices for even coverage.</p></div>
