Use this page when the brick on your home is visibly cracked, loose, displaced, or failing around mortar joints. It is especially useful for inspection repair lists, foundation-related cracks, brick mailbox damage, and exterior repairs that need to look clean from the street.
A masonry provider should confirm whether the issue is cosmetic, moisture-related, foundation-related, or tied to drainage. Good repair work is not just replacing a few bricks. It includes matching brick and mortar, protecting nearby surfaces, and explaining what may cause the damage to return.
Common questions
A qualified masonry contractor should look at crack direction, mortar condition, drainage, nearby settlement, brick match, and whether foundation movement should be evaluated before cosmetic repair begins.
Yes, but many repair providers prefer to wait until the foundation work has settled and the home is stable. The right timing depends on the foundation company recommendations, crack severity, and whether the brick is structural or cosmetic.
Often, yes. A provider may use existing brick, local brick yards, tinting, mortar sampling, and test panels to get a close match. Exact matches are harder on older or discontinued brick.
