"Everdry Waterproofing literally saved our house. We discovered mold and water leakage, plus the footer was starting to sink at one corner. I love the all-encompassing waterproofing system Everdry uses: they fixed the holes in the 100 year-old masonry, dug the drainage trenches, and put everything back the way I wanted it. I can rest at night knowing that the our foundation is restored and my personal items stored in the basement are mold free and dry. I actually can use the space as an office now, it's that comfortable. Less bugs, no more mice, no more mold!!! MF Goshen, IN"

We have also used them for all our household maintenance, everything from shingling our roof and fixing leaks to constructing steps and handrails. I would recommend them to everyone. They are courteous and polite, do an excellent job and clean the area before they leave. A Christian family owned business. I give 5 stars"

Removing paint from brick can have both aesthetic and practical value. Some people prefer the timeless look of bare brick, making it worthwhile to remove old paint layers. Brick also lasts longer when unpainted, as paint traps moisture, causing the brick to deteriorate more quickly. If your brick walls are already in bad shape, stripping the paint off might do more harm than good.
You can hang holiday lights on brick without drilling by using hot glue, outdoor tape, or brick clips for your project. There are plenty of alternatives to consider, so consult a professional Christmas light installer to discuss the best options to preserve your brick exterior.
Brick spalling—which refers to the crumbly, flaky, or pitted appearance that can develop over time—is caused by a few different conditions. These include:
Climates with constant freeze-thaw cycles
Use of non-breathable sealants
High-pressure water cleaning
Improper installation
While you can’t do anything about the weather, you can preserve your bricks by cleaning them with soapy water and a good old-fashioned scrubbing. Pressure washers may be satisfying to use, but they can eventually wear away the surface of your bricks. If you don’t have advanced-level DIY skills in masonry, you can hire a reputable masonry contractor in your area for your project.
You can purchase from many brick manufacturers and distributors via their websites, where you can also get estimates based on the quantity you need. You’ll find bricks at your local home improvement stores as well, though they won’t have as much of a variety to choose from. As for antique bricks, secondary selling websites like eBay can be a great resource.
Choose from an abundance of natural and synthetic options when perfecting your hardscape design. Stone veneer costs a bit less, holds up against the tests of time and weather, and also works best in curves and complex walls.
Natural stone, however, provides an organic look to a lawn while providing just as much strength as veneer. Don't forget you can chat with your mason about other common wall materials like brick, cinderblock, and concrete.
