Q: Can I cut used or reclaimed bricks?

• <div><p>Yes, but used or reclaimed bricks can be more brittle, cracked, or uneven than new bricks, so they&rsquo;re harder to cut cleanly by hand. For that reason, you should take extra care when scoring and striking, and expect a higher chance of breakage. If a brick feels especially fragile, score deeper before attempting to split it.</p></div>

Q: Are brick houses more durable?

• <div><p>Modern brick homes have a brick facade over standard framing and sheathing, so the brick offers minimal added structural stability. A home with traditional brick construction is more durable than a stick-built home, as the double-layer brick walls and rebar resist higher lateral wind loads and support heavier loads up top, as well.</p></div>

Q: Does painted brick need to be sealed?

• <div><p>Painted exterior brick does not usually need sealing. Brick is a porous material, so you don&rsquo;t want to apply a sealant that could trap moisture inside the bricks and cause erosion and structural damage. The risk of moisture-induced damage after sealing is higher in colder climates where trapped moisture can expand if it freezes. On the other hand, it makes sense to seal really old brick or kitchen backsplashes, where moisture from cooking can weaken the brick.</p></div>

Q: How much does a thousand bricks cost?

• <div><p>The exact cost of bricks depends on the type and size of the bricks you use for your project. Generally, standard clay bricks cost between $350 and $850 for a thousand bricks, or an average of $550. Brick veneer costs around the same for materials but is easier to install than solid bricks, so you&rsquo;ll save on labor by choosing this option. </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>
