Andrew, thank you for taking time to watch our "Brick vs Vinyl" video! While we do not claim that nothing can damage brick, we do stand by the safety of brick compared to alternative claddings, like vinyl, and brick's ability to withstand common weather events such as hail demonstrated in the video. The integrity of the impact test on different common residential wall systems can also be viewed in more detail here: ruclips.net/video/fDk0QKEc02Q/видео.htmlsi=Bs7Hir6BJxTGlFpB And if you have time, please take a moment to view this local news story where lumber pierced into neighboring homes (not built with brick) due to high winds here: ruclips.net/video/YmeEzYjb-bk/видео.htmlsi=IKgdFHbD4EmKbb6v If we can help answer further questions about the durability, safety, longevity and resiliency of brick, please contact us or the Brick Industry Association.

Although it is possible it is not typically recommended as this may prove to be more costly to leave the siding in place. There are many factors involved and additional considerations must be taken into account when bricking over an existing cladding. For detailed information on adding brick to existing construction please refer to the Brick Industry Association’s Technical Note on this here www.gobrick.com/docs/default-source/read-research-documents/technicalnotes/tn-28a-2020-03.pdf?sfvrsn=2 If we can be of assistance in your project, please feel free to contact us here and we will be happy to connect you with a representative 😊 generalshale.com/contact/

@@GeneralShaleBrick - Cool! Thanks!

@@malakiamen is your house wall wooden?

@@lionheart9725 - I have wood siding on my house.

😂

Hi, Brenda! We will check on this for you and reply back shortly! Thanks for commenting! 😊

Brenda, we have not heard back from the homeowner but you can find a lot about the details of their build here: instagram.com/keeverfarmhouse/ 😊

Brenda, the white siding came that way and was from CertainTeed 😊

Hello, Astrin! The application method used to achieve a white brick can and will cause fading over time. As mentioned at :33 - :41 , our bricks are manufactured with their white color whereas customers may also elect to apply paint after install. Applying paint after install will not deliver the lifespan of a true manufactured white brick and overtime will fade and require it to be painted again to retain the same white color it once had. We hope this information is helpful and please do not hesitate to reach out if we can help further! - GS

@@GeneralShaleBrick But, if white brick fades, isn't the end result still white? I used to work in warranty claims for vinyl siding (I needed a job, okay? Don't judge me.) and I don't think I ever received a call from a customer upset that their white siding had faded. I think I'd remember that. I mean, I remember the customer who covered their stone house with vinyl siding, and was upset because the result wasn't flat and level, and the Affair of the Cypress Guttering. 😉

What do you mean where you live ? Like your neighborhood or your city ? And what do you think about the cost ?

@@seanmcbrearty1365 I live somewhere in the Western-European region, almost the whole country uses set building technique. We recently bought a house ourselves, it's expensive regardless of the build materials. You've to be with two, it's almost impossible to buy anything on your own over here. We found a couple of new wooden buildings in our search, they where either identically priced or actually more expensive per square meter in comparison with their brick counterparts. We settled for a 14 year old 210 sq meter (2260 sq ft) brick building, it's about one monthly wage for the next 20 years on mortgage. The previous owner needed the money due to a divorce, so it's actually on the cheaper side given the size and good state of the building. Brick homes tend to rise in value over time here, so most people see it as an long term investment. Wooden homes are less trusted, thus their price increase slower and less over time. For comparison, my parents house has quadrupled in value, over the past 30 years... Money on a banking account is meanwhile rotting away, due to inflation...

@@timmy7201 Just give it up, you live in the UK. The brits love their brick houses.Wood is "less trusted" because It's at mercy of the elements in a whole different way. Brick is a reliable material but I despise when people try to sell it off as maintenance free. It's not. The mortar needs to be kept up and if it rains on the fascade and live in a cold climate you'll inevitable have stones burst.

@@Teutathis Not living in the UK, but a nearby country across the channel. You're correct that brick buildings do need some maintenance, yet it's far less than an actual wooden house. Based on my parents their house, the only real mandatory maintenance they've done in the past 30 years was to replace their roofing tiles with new ones and swap out some (wooden) window frames for PVC ones, all additional changes (such as added insulation, some new electrical wiring, new floor tiles, etc... ) where technically optional.

@@Teutathis I live in Canada, vast majority of houses have brick veneer (in my city). The eves are large and you need to maintain your roof but it way outlasts siding.
