How long do bricks last?

• <div><p>Most classic red bricks can last 20 to 40 years without major repairs or renovations. If brick is maintained, it can easily last 100 to 150 years. When weighing <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/brick-vs-brick-veneer.htm">brick vs. brick veneer</a>, homeowners are often surprised to learn that even thin veneers can be expected to last 50 to 100 years. </p></div>

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’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.</p></div>

Q: How many bricks do you need to build an outdoor pizza oven?

• <div><p>The size of your pizza oven will determine the number of bricks necessary to build it. So the bigger your pizza oven, the more fire bricks you&rsquo;ll need to purchase. Keep in mind that fire bricks cost about <b>$3</b> <b>each</b>. </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: What color should I paint my brick house?

• <div><p>There are tons of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-exterior-house-colors.htm">paint colors to choose from</a> for your brick house, but here are some great choices you should consider. Different shades of white can add a modern vibe. Instead of a bright white, try off-white or cream-white.</p><p>If you&rsquo;re not into the idea of a white house, then you might go the opposite route and go with a matte black tone. Black painted brick houses have their own contemporary aesthetic that might fit your vision.</p><p>Additionally, some great <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/barndominium-exterior-paint-colors.htm">barndominium colors</a> include gray, blue, and sage green.</p></div>

I contacted Jacob about re-grading and adding more gravel to my 180ft driveway. He graded it to get the potholes leveled out and brought in 15 ton of stone to add to it. Packed down great and we have not had any issues with standing water or ruts from driving on it with our cars. Will definitely...

I would have probably used him, except for the timing. The other company was able to do the work right away. He seemed honest and I liked his attitude. He was very responsive, punctual, and professional. I would use Hartman Brick & Stone in the future.
