This book is Awesome! I love the Lean-To-Shed the most (page 98). The plan ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxe9yi0sulKgsp0VJJCIrLWWkvVqcU7LFR is to attach it to the back of my brick house. I also like how they walk you through the many different steps of construction, which is important for the less experienced like me.
As a 15-year brick pro that could not have been done better. Brick does absorb water but in your installation, it was perfectly dealt with. You could have spent the extra money to buy the trays thin brick sit in to keep them straight but it looked like you did well. Perfect and maybe a little overkill on the water management but I don't think you can overkill water issues. That was the perfect choice in the jointers. Fantastic job from a guy that knows. Well done.
Bryan you made my day. I take pride in the videos I produce and did plenty of research on this project before taking it on since it wanted to make sure I showed everyone the proper steps. Thanks so much for watching and sharing. Truly appreciate the support.
@@dans8935 I agree! He put the labor and time in to get this to us. Posting your work on UA-cam, is something I have no inclination to do. And certainly ol boy Dustin, who complained, would never have the stones to do because someone might hurt his feelings.
As a mason for 16 years, you did a pretty good job for not doing it as a profession. I do the grout bag a different method but whatever way works is good. Keep up the quality content.
I use a trowel and tuck pointer if doing a small area but I would do the same method as him on this much pointing up. I just fold the grout bag different. I fill the bag the fold in half then roll it down towards the bottom. It works well.
@@nuttysquirrel8816 it's not going to be significantly stronger than an LP smartsiding or 3/4" wood sided wall. If at all. The mortar joints would be a weak point on the brick wall and that wonder board is really quite weak as far as puncture resistance. You might gain a little bit of r value with the brick wall.

Not a bad job at all. 1. First things first. For the love of God throw that flat trowel out of sight. 😆 and use your margin! 2. Always! Tool head joints followed by bed joints. Brush and repeat. 3. Brick tape story accordingly, snap every other story mark. (Every other course) lay to snapped lines. Then fill remaining courses with eyeball for level between already level courses. 4 .Hubbard jointer! Made of magnesium to pull moisture out (like flatwork) for smooth finish. 5. Cut tip of grout bad bigger! 6. Good job bud. Better than some apprentices
@@634shy I've installed it outside countless times. If your worried about moisture use an extra layer of building paper and add thin set to your mortar. And install a weep screed at the bottom
Interesting video. My father built a brick house when I was 4-5 and I had forgotten the mortar bag till you used it! I'm almost 69 now and have most of his old tools even though most aren't really useable and even if they were, I wouldn't be able to use them. You did a great job, looks beautiful! 👍
Some of that was overkill, however I'm all about overkill. Every project on my house I make sure If it can have extra protection without causing a problem then it gets it. My yard gets flooded and it floods my crawlspace. The previous owners solutions was just a tiny sump pump in the crawlspace. It barely keeps the water from touching the floor joist. I installed gutters, french drains foundation drains, and resurfaced the yard to shed water. All of my drains are now tied to the city storm drains system and the last thing I need to do is replace the damaged siding that's why I'm here. You did a great job and very informative thank you.
I am amazed at the difference it has now and before, thanks to you I learned how to do the same at my house, everything looks very prosional and clean, you did a very good job.
Uh-maze-ing!!!! Hands down top notch. I have wanted to do this to my house for so long and I’m grateful to have this video pop up in my feed randomly. Thanks for the pointers mate!
Looks great, man!!! The curb appeal just took a 180° for the better! Even though I'm more of a natural stone fan, this works very well! We did a great natural stone wall around and above the fireplace to the ceiling, at my buddies parents house while they were on vacation. It paid off in spades just to see their faces when I hey saw it. They've always wanted to have it done but contractors were too much $$$. We saved thousands by free material, other than pegs and mortar and doing it ourselves. We've been stocking up on stone for a long time so we had it when we were ready. Free is my favorite 4 letter "F word"...!!!
This is gorgeous. I've always wanted a brick house as it looks timeless and having this brick veneer is a great solution. I keep seeing the manufactured stone veneer, which is ok, but thankfully, I found that brick veneer is possible. I'm subscribed.
I was a little sceptical at the beginning while expecting things to criticise. This video turned out to be very informative as well as simply satisfying to watch. Bravo young man, Bravo.
I just had to subscribe! Your filming, editing, personality, skills and knowledge are awesome. Unbelievably great videos! You don't even need to be interested in construction to love them! 🔨
Looks sooo amazing! Really! It’s more appreciated after watching all of the time and work that you put into it. The great part is that you put that extra time and caution into making sure that you don’t have any water condensation. Moist!! Lol yeah I don’t love that word but I definitely wouldn’t comment if anyone said it and tell them that they shouldn’t. I just that was hilarious that you brought it up and I hear so many people around me said that they don’t like it. So funny. Great job I really do love the look. How satisfying.
YESSSSSS Keith! I'm so glad someone got that reference haha! That episode was amazing and I think I'm going to make up some shirts with True-Level on them. Thanks so much for watching and your continued support.
Thank you for this! When we did an addition years ago, budget prevented us from doing this, and we have this hideous drivot instead (that I’m certain is too thin because you can see the outline of every single cinder block). Doing this is a must to give our garage area the finished look it needs. Our home is also that beautiful blue gray with white carriage style doors, so I know it will be beautiful! (I don’t suppose you ever do this for others?)
Looks doable for possibly myself and husband! We have moved to home that’s all vinyl siding coming from our previous home that had a front exterior in nice brick. Even if we don’t do it- lol- I learned so much from your video and I totally am the same when it comes to leveling everything or it will just bother me even if I’m the only one that notices. 😂
I was always wondering how to deal with the non masonry walls, and learned through watching this about the cement board. Will definitely have to watch several more times before attempting this on my house. I live on Massachusetts/New Hampshire border, so getting the moisture barrier and drip edge is crucial to a safe and secure house. And I did get the Rick and Morty reference.
Thanks for posting this. I need to do a small section of brick underneath a basketball goal because I keep tearing up my vinyl siding. I tried to shop for brick but didn't even know most of the terms for the supplies I needed to locate. Now, I know a lot more about it.
Great tip about adding liquid first. Proper mix techniques, materials and tools are the first and very important step to getting a quality finished product.
The brick looks great and the style of the garage doors go particularly well with it. 21:10 good choice for closing music; I always loved the 1967 version, the the remix sounds pretty good as well.
Nice job. One area of concern is that the mortar that you are using does not bond to the red guard at all. You should be troweling on a polymer modified thinset onto the wall then adhering the bricks to it. Other than that fantastic job. Especially on the prep work.
Thank you for this video. I'm getting ready to replace vinyl siding with Flexebrick and this showed me how much more involved brick veneer is and some thing to watch out for in the installation of the flexebrick.
I didn't catch the reasoning behind the cement board being used outdoors. Was this just to flatten the transition? Also in the veneer world, working from the top down is common. Less chance of a mess on the stones and bricks below
I just use a bit of rubber hose as when I lose it I just cut off another bit to do the pointing . I've been using this method for yonks and never have a problem .
Very informative and a well done presentation. Now to tackle a brick veneer job I have been putting off to do on a outside wall on my covered deck. Thanks
Great job, looking to do this for a couple of steps on the side of our porch. Thanks for all the info you provided and great video. I think true level might be the horizon? It becomes obvious when looking at it from a cockpit.

18:45. This old sewer worker actually taught my cousin a building mason the brush thing. He would let the mortar dry and use acid the next day to clean up the joints.
Fantastic! I was wondering how I could do it so perfectly and ensure there would be no water infiltration! Excellent! Thank you! I will be so ready to replace my 63 year-old house bottom painted wood siding on the garage with brick to match the other brick around the front of the house. 😉👍🏽

Tuck pointing, using a hawk and jointer I’m guessing. Much and cleaner but the grout bags do the trick as well.
I use a trowel and tuck pointer if doing a small area but I would do the same method as him on this much pointing up. I just fold the grout bag different. I fill the bag the fold in half then roll it down towards the bottom. It works well.

Does thin brick make walls stronger?

1st time viewer, new subscriber. You did an outstanding job. Beautiful!
That brick veneer looks amazing! Now it's time to replace the blue siding.
I did a kitchen backdrop like that. Got zbrick. Same concept but they come glued to a net in 2sq/ft rectangles. Much easier vs laying single bricks.
Nice! I've seen that as well and would love to try it out on a back splash for sure. Thanks for watching and hope you enjoyed the video.
