- Follow us through on this transformation as we STAIN this old red brick home white. Not paint, stain!
All wood surfaces were properly prepped primed and painted to match the Creamy White color and then added in the contrast with the Tricorn Black!
In the end the house is now up to date with todays modern looks!
Thanks for watching!

House looks crispy and clean. I think the dog likes it too!
That looks amazing. Covered up the hideous outdated red brick. Amazing how much of a difference a coat of paint can make. We had a house that was Garfield orange brick. Painted it a gray color and redid trim in white, with a support change on the front porch. Had so many people stop when i was outside to compliment how nice it looked.
This was an amazing transformation
I would love to see a photo before and after please. This idea of painting my ugly bricks is growing on me!
@swissmaid sold that one 15mos ago, unfortunately. We unloaded our primary and one of our rentals in order to move into one almost 3x the size directly on the lake. 1900sqft wasn't big enough, plus I really enjoy the water. I can tell you we did it 3yrs before moving, and it held up perfectly. Just have to power wash the house and do any tuck pointing prior and, of course, use the right paint and roller, the roller needs a long nap. Sherwin Williams is our go-to for paint always, inside and out. You should absolutely do it! I think Sherwin also has consultants that will alter a photo to show you what it will sort of look like when it's painted. Good luck!!
Looks Fantastic!!!!!
Wow, what a great outcome..
😍 excelente trabajo, I Like it 😉❤️
Gorgeous ❤❤❤❤
INCREDIBLE tranformation and I love the black window frames, and wood beams in the front of home. That "all- white-look" creates uniformity between the brick and siding, but I thought the siding could be painted a light greyish-blue? That may have been less uniform in appearance though?
Looking very nice
Can you tell me exactly what STAIN you used for this project? It looks great! Going to be doing my house soon and would love my brick to turn out like yours.
You guys get an excellent job I wish I had the money to hire you.
Nice job 👍
Respect 🙏
That was one awesome job 🎉❤
Just got painting the exterior of a house and the prep work was the longest! Painting is the easy part lol
Beautiful
excellent process and work ❤❤❤❤😁😁🙏🙏🙏🙏 how much do u charge? do u do texas houses nw austin?
I street shot of the finished house would have been nice.
When you opened the trailer and everything was brand new and ultra clean says zero experience! Fake it till u make it as usual !!
orr.. he just keeps his stuff organized... what a dumbb fkn comment
so damn nice, I could imagine you used DTM for the metal down spouts
I like the before, more.
What up bro what type of paint you end up using for the rest of the house that wasn’t brick and the trim and doors? Turn out fire btw.
Did you paint the gutters? If so, what material were they? And what brand of brick dye did you use?
Smart. Stain is the only way to go. The brick will absorb it. Paint, especially on a fireplace will peel after a short time.
Man you get the nice jobs…easy access no landscaping
How much coverage are you getting out of the H&C Colortop?
From experience the soffit will never come clean as the water drips decades of dirt back down and it migrates all over the surface. It is a vent that is supposed to draw air in and through the top vent so it makes sense.
White brick will become dirty. Painting prevents the brick from venting, breathing. Got it.
@@anitadrink5255 not sure if your being sarcastic. Mt point is the soffit is very hard to clean if not impossible. This guy painted the soffit which needs to be spotless for a lasting paint job. . It will kick off dirt onto brick but brick would be pressure washed last so not an issue that way.
@@siskens470 No, I believe you. I was just re-stating it another way for others to read. I agree.
How much would a work like this cost?
Prep work when painting is the most important part of your project..
Usually you should prime bricks first, something like loxon or something
We used tinted loxon to paint our brick. That stuff is like armor.
What brand of black paint did you use for the windows?
I am thinking of doing the same thing to mine. Red brick looks old!
As the brick structure breathes and air does not pass through, the moisture and dampness of mold and insulation will eventually begin to breed pests.
What product did you use for the gutters?
28 yrs experience with my own painting company. Don’t paint brick. It will take years but will fail. You stain brick so it can breath.
Check out Keim masonry mineral paint
Can you use stain in a paint gun?
You are going to see every place where he wiped the excess caulking on the rough wood after he paints it.
What about, over time, when the paint starts to wear out and peel off? How do you fix that?
If you paint it correctly and with the right paint you won't really have any more issues than if the house were wood.
They used a brick stain, which absorbs into the brick and lasts better than paint since it doesn't have as many moisture problems.
@@scotthaney6901 Oh ok, thank you. I’ve seen older houses that have been painted (with what looks like regular paint) and over the years the paints starts peeling off and then you’re left with a peeling, flaking mess.
@@traceycrawford9938 The paint most people use seals the brick and won't let it breathe, so moisture causes it to peel. The stain lets the brick breathe, though, which minimizes issues like that. Colortop, Romabio, and. few others make the stains that can be used.
@@scotthaney6901 Thanks for that information 👍. Sounds like the newer products and techniques are much better than ‘back in the day’ lol
Maybe stupid question but do you pressure wash and paint the same day?
We allow 24hrs minimum before we do any work after pressure washing.
What kind of camera are yall using ?
Wow! You guys even installed new front porch posts…
What wood is that?
Any recommendations for painting brick in FL yo avoid issues due to summer rains?
Can I ask how much you charged for this job?
Now every 6-8 years it will need a repaint
🤩
White brick 😝 Looks new but looked better natural
What tip are you using on the paint gun? For the white and black?
413 or 415 Titian HEA
Did you prime this house first?
No he didn’t .
The brick was beautiful. Don't know why anyone would want to paint it....
My thought exactly. Painting over that brick is a crime. And good luck getting the bricks repainted when it starts peeling
Stain shouldn't peel since it's absorbed into the brick and not a layer on top like paint would be.@@ericfischer8295
@@ericfischer8295it’s stained not painted
Thats ver worse because it means you can never remove the coloring@@arturobeckett4452
The same day?
What colors are the exterior?
tricorn black 6258 and creamy 7012 both from sherwin Williams
@@ybarra_paintingthe creamy color is the wood paint or the brick stain ? Please help
Both
what color is that white
SW Creamy
The white looks nice but I think the red brick was PERFECT. Especially after it was pressure washed.
Not trying to be mean about it, but have any of you ever seen a brick house has been painted just a couple of years later it is not a pretty sight, and then you have to think about the temperature of where you live and how it will handle the elements think twice maybe think more than twice, plus trends die
The brick was stained. Homes that look bad after a couple a years are prepped and painted incorrectly. Black and white is timeless.
Check out Keim Masonry mineral paint.
So now RED BRICK is outdated? Wow!
Do u paint or did u stain the brick?
This is a stain from H&C
Good job on prep and painting. However, I don't like houses with painting on brick and never buy one.
You should've stained that brick. Brick needs to breathe and retain moisture. Paint only suffocates brick and will need maintenance touchups every changing season
They used a stain...they commented...
Omg, beautiful job. To bad the animal activists are worried about the brick. Wonder how they found your channel. 😅😊
It looks so bad without the contrast in colour of the mortar. Ruined the house.
Why don’t you just buy a 5 gallon bucket of paint?
This video convinced me not to lime wash my bricks or stain them white. That looks absolutely awful.
Why do you ff the video?
U painted the ac too 😂
NEVER DO THIS, just don't this will rott your home at best
Sounds like you’re still stuck in the 20th century. Products and technology are different
@@261982brandon sounds like you haven't watched a painted brick structure for more then a year
@@raabaddler5802 well my house is going on three years in AZ, and it's still the shiniest house on the block.
@@MechInvent AZ? the only reason you have a home still is it doesn't rain commonly and when it does it bakes off fast, you may want to move to some place with a water table that can support life like Colorado or east of of the Mississippi, hope you have a easy time of relocating
@@raabaddler5802 the brick was stained, not painted. BIG difference. No wood ever suffered stain or paint for that matter and I saw very little wood being stained or painted.
NEVER paint brick! It needs to breathe. Don't do it
Hence the importance of using Romabio.
Name one time this has ever been an actual issue. Everyone complaining about people painting brick and have no evidence to prove it’s a problem.
@@nowayjose20 it’s real but takes years.
@@nowayjose20 Actually it's basic science. Brick is porous and needs to breathe. Painting it does not allow for the proper flow of air regarding how moisture interacts with it.
@@spg5658 Painting brick does not seal it enough the create any sort of pressure in the material. Sure, if you dipped every brick in molten rubber, it would have some reaction over time.
Before was much better. Sorry😂😂😂
Wasting money. The coating is at least 5 times thinner than regular paint and everything, mold, moisture or sun will eat it up 5 times faster. 2-3 seasons and say goodbye to good looks. I have been painting for 42 years.
YUCK!
Bricks have to be allowed to breath, never paint, only stain, brushed on one brick at a time.
