True Cost of Brick
Even though brick may cost on average about 4-6% more than using some exterior materials, in a very short time, this “expense” transforms itself into real savings.
Save On Maintenance
Brick never needs painting. It never rots, fades, peels or dents. Just think of the savings in paint, labor and head-aches this can mean.
Save On Fuel Bills
Brick is a proven insulator. It is slow to lose or absorb heat, which reduces the load on your heating and cooling system. A brick home stays warm when it’s cool and cool when it’s warm.
