"I had a sinking concrete entryway replaced. I love working with Disciple Masonry. They are all around absolute pros. The job was excellent, and the guys were knowledgeable and professional. The entryway looks fantastic. If you need masonry work, these are the only people to call. I have also had them do repointing on my stone and chimney. I wouldn’t consider working with anyone else!"

"Eric runs a very efficient hardscape business. He and his crew went above and beyond with my retaining wall, bringing wood much thicker and sturdier than I expected, and even leveled the ground with gravel and sand and put my previously disheveled flag stones in perfect, level order. I was previously thinking of throwing them out, but now it now looks so amazing that I want to put mortar between the rocks to perfect the look!"

"They were professional and pleasant. The initial installation looked great, however after the first rain some bricks on the edges came loose. I called about a week ago and they said they’d be out to fix it. They have not come yet, nor do I have any idea when they might be coming. This is disappointing. I liked their work otherwise."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

You will repoint over a fraction of the old mortar, but you should scrape away 1/2 to 1 inch of mortar from the joints before repointing. Otherwise, the repointing is only masking the weakened mortar instead of actually replacing it, which could put your chimney at risk of bigger, more expensive damages later on.

Drilling into brick or mortar requires the use of a masonry drill bit. Masonry drill bits appear similar to standard drill bits except for the leading tip of the bit. The tip has a bulky carbide arrow-shaped end slightly larger than the rest of the bit shaft. Standard or high-speed drill bits designed for making holes in wood or metal don’t have the ruggedness or design shape you need to drill into brick. They may not go through the brick at all, and if they do, they’re more likely to overheat, crack, or dull before you finish drilling.

Brick spalling—which refers to the crumbly, flaky, or pitted appearance that can develop over time—is caused by a few different conditions. These include:

  • Climates with constant freeze-thaw cycles

  • Use of non-breathable sealants

  • High-pressure water cleaning

  • Improper installation

While you can’t do anything about the weather, you can preserve your bricks by cleaning them with soapy water and a good old-fashioned scrubbing. Pressure washers may be satisfying to use, but they can eventually wear away the surface of your bricks. If you don’t have advanced-level DIY skills in masonry, you can hire a reputable masonry contractor in your area for your project.

When it comes to how to paint a brick chimney, consider that standard paint can seal in moisture and cause serious chimney problems. Instead, use a vapor-permeable sealant. You’ll first scrub and sand the chimney; then, you can patch any gaps with caulk and apply the sealant. We recommend hiring a pro for this job since it entails working on the roof, which comes with a lot of necessary safety precautions.

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’ll save on labor by choosing this option.
