"My home has a chimney that was unsafe to use (cracked masonry liner). I dreaded the time and cost of a tear down and replacement. I contacted "Shamrock Chimney" and scheduled an appointment with their lead technician "Tony". He suggested a less costly and safer alternative (steel liner and a resealing of the outer brickwork. The work was performed over a two-day period. I am fully satisfied with the results. One thing I really apricate is the communication during the project. The "front office" would let me know by either phone or email when the project would start, and then Tony and would give me updates. All and all the whole process went smoothly. Also, this was my first time with "Angi", I hope to use their services again in the future."

"To keep it brief they put in the piers under the foundation , great. they have an engineer bless what they did. Meantime my flashing which was supposed to be foxed was had problems which they partially addressed when I had them back but they ignore me and are always outta town when I call with problems (since they now have my money, it sems to me). They told me I needed only very little on the iinside of the chimnety but they don't do that kind of work. Turns out , best case is $800 on the inside but the chimney guys will not guarantee the work until I address the excessive sway (2 inches) in my chimney. Bedrock looked at it and they say...there is n excessive sway. Though they acknowledge that we may need some straps to be installed between the mortar totabilize the chimney, they don't get back to me to address anything. They say each time they will call in a few days and I wait a month and then I call them and get the same thing. So their big selling point that they will fix the problem even if it costs more than the estimate ....don't believe it because they just tell you that everything is great and you should be satisfied. Same with my low spot in my kitchen. When what they did , did not address the problem i complained about , it came out that they understood my concern as some other problem that also existed but that my problem was not structural. Unfortunataely their analysis of my problem was not so indepth before they were commisioned to do the work. Then they spent a day doing makeshift after thoughts to adress it and finally told me it's just the sub par way my floor was installed at construction. I should have been told that before they accepted that add on of thejob. Actually, I ight consider hiring them again if they weren't blowing me off about my disatisfaction with the job I spent $9200 for overall. As it stands I am hiring someone else to finish what they refuse to address. If they read this and handle up I will consider retracting this. Also , they worked on my hearth but the motar doesn't match and I had to tell the laborer they had do the masonry to push a brick in that he was gonna leave sticking waty out. Same guy that doesn't know how t do the flashing that they reassured me at the begining that they would fix. "

Yes, as long as the cut is clean and the brick remains structurally sound, you can reuse it. Reusing brick is especially common for landscaping, edging, and small masonry repairs. Just make sure to file down any sharp edges before handling or installing it.
The best tool for drilling into brick or mortar is a rotary hammer drill which is a large hammer drill with low rotation speed and high torque. Regular drills with a hammer function are also excellent tools for drilling into brick when the diameter of the hole is 1/2 inch or less. It might be possible to drill into brick with a standard drill if you’re only drilling a very small hole, but note that masonry work will put a lot of wear on a standard drill, and the tool may not be strong enough to get through brick.
No, you don’t need to soak the brick before cutting it by hand. In fact, cutting a wet brick can make it harder to see your score lines and may cause the chisel to slip. Soaking is sometimes used with power tools to reduce dust, but for hand-cutting, it’s best to work with dry bricks for better control and visibility.
A mason lays brick or stone together, sometimes with mortar in between the bricks and stones, and sometimes without mortar, also called a dry-stack or surface bonding. Examples of work masons do include:
Brick, stone, or cement block houses and buildings
You should use cement for a chimney crown. The purpose of the chimney crown is to protect the mortar below from water damage and the effects of weather. For this reason, chimney crowns should only be made using cement. When repairing a crown, use caulks and sealants designed for cement repair rather than mortar repair.
