Q: Can you use super glue to hang lights on brick?

• <div><p>Do not use super glue to hang lights on brick unless you want your lights up year-round. Hot glue is a better choice because it&rsquo;s easily removable with a small amount of rubbing alcohol. Super glue is very hard to remove, and you could tear off parts of the brick in the removal process.</p></div>

Q: What is considered the hearth of a fireplace?

• <div><p>A fireplace hearth is a fireproof flooring material that extends out from the base of the fireplace and into the room. Hearths can be made of brick, ceramic, marble, limestone, and more. A hearth serves the purpose of decreasing the fire risk in the area directly around the fireplace. If flying embers hit carpet or wood, they&rsquo;ll spark and create a fire. But if they hit something like tile or granite, they&rsquo;ll simply go out.</p></div>

Q: Can I attach shutters to brick without drilling?

• <div><p>No, it&rsquo;s not recommended to attach shutters to brick without drilling. Brick is dense and built to last, so adhesives and shortcut methods don&rsquo;t usually cut it. Even heavy-duty glue struggles to hold up over time&mdash;especially against wind, moisture, and temperature changes. Most <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-attach-shutters-to-vinyl-siding.htm">no-drill options are made for materials like vinyl</a> or wood, not solid masonry. Skipping the drill might seem easier, but it puts your shutters&mdash;and anything below them&mdash;at risk. For a secure, lasting install, drilling is the way to go. It takes more effort up front, but the result is safer and more reliable. </p></div>

Q: Are brick houses safer in an earthquake?

• <div><p>According to the <a href="https://www.earthquakecountry.org/step4/urmwalls/#:~:text=Houses%20built%20of%20unreinforced%20masonry,and%20the%20roof%20is%20critical.">Earthquake Country Alliance</a>&mdash;a public and private alliance in California that works to improve earthquake and tsunami readiness&mdash;reports that unreinforced masonry, such as stone, bricks, and hollow clay tiles, is more susceptible to earthquake damage. The mortar between bricks isn&rsquo;t as stable as other building materials and methods.</p></div>

Q: Where can I buy bricks?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;ll find bricks at your local home improvement stores as well, though they won&rsquo;t have as much of a variety to choose from. As for antique bricks, secondary selling websites like eBay can be a great resource.</p></div>
