Add Pizzazz to your Home’s Exterior

It’s Time to Paint Again

Once again, mother nature has done her due diligence and is forcing you to address the failing paint on the exterior of your home. You’re not looking forward to spreading drop cloths, setting up ladders, or chipping away at the dried paint. The thought of sweat, spiders, bees, and spilled paint is making your stomach turn. Consider lessening the blow by installing exterior brick veneer.

Who?

Brick veneer is user-friendly. If you’re the sort of person who is handy with your hands, installing it yourself should be relatively easy. Brick veneer installs very much like vinyl siding. If on the other hand, you would hire a plumber to replace a toilet seat, hiring a contractor will be necessary.  

First Impressions

Brick veneer is designed to be used as an accent on your home. It has been said that you only get one chance to make a first impression. Why not make that impression on guests with a grand entry into your home? Instead of peeling paint and dirty footprints from a jumping dog, greet visitors with a rich, deep brick texture that never needs paint and hides any imperfections of the wall.

The Garage

Your garage takes extreme abuse. From bouncing balls to vehicle exhaust, your garage is often the first thing people see when they visit your home. For every rebound off the wall, a ball mark remains. Dirt from every driveway car wash, barbeque, and rummage sale clings to the closest wall. Grease splatter from the moving parts and track of your overhead door only add to the problem. Why not spruce up your garage to match the entryway of your home? Exterior brick veneer around the overhead door and halfway up the wall can add dramatic beauty to a garage. Matching the veneer of the entry is an absolute necessity if the garage is attached to the house.

Outbuildings

Do you have a detached garage on the other end of your lot? It’s common in rural settings to have a steel pole barn or steel shed away from the house, but still within easy viewing distance. What about a chicken coop, or a large children’s playhouse? These outbuildings are perfect settings for exterior brick veneer. On a steel building that does not require siding for protection against the elements, brick veneer installs quickly and easily, saving the owner money while beautifying their property.
