    Loving the lime wash!! Of course, red brick 🧱 looks super traditional and I prefer modern aesthetics!! You never realize why paying for these jobs are so expensive until you start the work yourself, so now that I know how much work goes into these jobs, their pricing is fair! 😅 But something is so satisfying about DIYing! Great work! 🤩🤩

    You always provide thorough instructions - providing people read and / or listen.
    I like brick too, but in certain applications. And like lyme wash for the exact reason you stated, it lets the bricks breathe unlike a conventional ",paint." Years down the line this will pay off in the long run as constant exposure will result in brick repairs and many times the original product is no longer available. With lyme washing it will not be a big deal. Repair then lyme wash and it will be just dandy.

    The ph of 12 is very anti mold growth! Mold remediation companies spray a 12 ph treatment on moldy wood and it restores it to brand new! The very first time we used it we were amazed!
    Full PPEs must be utilized and must not breath the fumes whenever using and pouring the product into a sprayer.

    I think you might be able to tint the wash with some powdered pigments, and I don't think it would harm the effects of the lime. My dad used to spray cow barns with lime to keep the flies down. It was his business when I was a kid. You could have any shade of white you wanted, lol! Your house looks great! The people who had our house before the ones who sold it to us, hated the orange brick too, but they had it re-bricked with white, so we're good that way.

    As a child my parents paid a carpenter to build & install a custom bookcase & desk. I loved it till it was stained that bright red brick color. As a child I expected a natural wood tone like walnut. The bright redwood color was like waving a red flag in front of a bull. I quietly thanked them & seethed silently. 50 years later it's the same horrid color, abrasive.
