Q: Is it worth keeping old bricks?

• <div><p>If your old bricks are in decent condition and you have the space to store them where they&rsquo;ll be protected from the elements, keeping old bricks is often worthwhile. You&rsquo;d spend anywhere from $70 to a few hundred dollars to have them removed from your property, in which case you won&rsquo;t be able to use them for future projects. Holding on to old bricks in good condition means you can use them later for other DIY projects, potentially saving yourself some money on disposal and new materials down the road.</p></div>

Q: What is the dimension of an average brick?

• <div><p>A traditional rectangular brick that is used for siding, brick walks, and pathways is 8 inches long by 4 inches wide. If you are shopping for fire bricks, the standard dimension is typically 9 inches long by 4.5 inches wide. </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: Is stone veneer less expensive than stone?

• <div><p>Stone veneer siding is approximately four times less expensive than stone because it's made of concrete and aggregates instead of natural stone. But veneer looks like real stone, is easier to install, and acts as a great, durable siding option. </p></div>

Pazcualâ s workers do a good job, work hard in all temperatures. We really appreciate their work ethic. Communication is sometimes not prompt and billing is not detailed at times. Pascual and his team did a very nice job on a new stone plantar and patio grill platform.

Piedmont did a great job. They were able to remove the dark streaks on the white gutters, remove rust streaks on the siding, helped moved some plants around, very professional, thoughtful and explained everything they were doing. Also went above and beyond by washing the stone facing and porch.
