Does brick increase home value?

• <div><p>Brick can increase the value of your home depending on the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-are-most-common-masonry-materials.htm">type of masonry materials</a> used. Homes generally have a higher resale value when they have brick siding, and brick is also easier to maintain (and lasts longer) than other <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pros-and-cons-different-house-siding.htm">types of siding</a>, which can motivate buyers to make an offer.</p><p>Just keep in mind, however, that although brick can up the asking price when you sell your house, the cost to brick a house is also more expensive than other typical siding costs—so you’ll invest more in the project.</p></div>

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: Who repairs brick mailboxes?

• <div><p>Typically, a brick mason will repair a brick mailbox. They can provide an estimate for repairs, which may include sourcing replacement brick, mortar, and other materials. If your brick mailbox has been completely destroyed, you should check with your local building code enforcement office to confirm that a brick mailbox is allowed in your location as some areas do not allow brick mailboxes because of the potential hazard for drivers who may hit them. </p></div>

Q: What cleans creosote from brick?

• <div><p>The best way to clean creosote from brick is to hire a professional chimney sweep. However, you can use a creosote log to remove excess buildup between cleanings. You can also clean minor creosote buildup using dish soap or vinegar mixed with water.</p></div>

Q: What does discolored brick mean?

• <div><p>Discoloration ondifferent <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-bricks.htm">types of brick</a> can range from harmless to red flag. For example, efflorescence that is caused by a buildup of water-soluble white salt is considered harmless. However, green or greenish-yellow stains are caused by salts that are harmful to brick. Staining can also be caused by rust, corrosion, lime run, soot, algae, or moss. </p></div>
