This guy has me so inspired. I’m going to paint my brick. I only have brick in the front of my house. I love how he lists out all the steps and Lowes gives the shopping list. I’ve always hated my brick. It's not pretty brick. I'm so inspired and excited to do this project.
Nobody is forcing you to paint your brick. If you don't want to, then don't. The video was meant to be educational for people who do want to paint their brick house.
Get a life
I'm preparing to paint my brick house myself. I actually considered having the paint stripped because the original brick houses in my neighborhood are absolutely beautiful. While prepping my house I discovered that my house has been painted several times so...paint it is. Thanks for sharing this video I'm spraying my house but I'm doing it all by myself!!! I'm so proud.
Lotta of people crying about painting brick....It’s a cheap alternative for home owners to give there Home some beautiful curbside appeal.
Y’all need to chill out.
Agreed but I trust no job on a brick house that doesn't include priming in itself. This job won't stand the test of time. Signed your friendly painter....
Someone painted my house's bricks in white... now it's nearly impossible to remove it even with a stripper. I hope people are aware of this before painting. It takes so much work that I'm reconsidering giving up and just repainting with a color that seems like brick
@@MSDjMichaelSlash We are.
AMAZING!! No matter what they think, why watch a painting brick video if they “will never do that” 😖😖😖
Great job!!!
Thank you for this video. My husband and I are wanting to paint our brick house but were worried about how to go about doing it. This was extremely helpful.
The holes at the bottom of a brick house are called "weep holes" and you should not plug them. they are there to allow moisture to escape from inside the brickwork.
My original brick color was unappealing, therefore, I chose to paint it some 21 years ago. Due to natural weathering, it’s time for a new color. Attempting to paint it is a challenge, but this video was extremely helpful.
What I appreciate about Lowes is the diversity in their ads. While businesses only do it because it’s trending now Lowes is like “this is nothing new for us, nice for you to join in.” 👍😀 continue to be ahead of the game. I see you! 👀
what's the big deal? Diversity? who cares its how to video. You Demorats
lee h It matters as its shows that everyone can do the DIYs. I’m in full support of diversity in everything. Politics don’t have anything to do with it. I just love when people break the stereotype molds. I’m not sure why you’re so hostile towards me because of my comment but anywho, I hope you have a great day. 😄👍
@@Kittypie1000 It show everyone can do the DIYs? That like a racist comment.
lee h Racist?! Smh You’re just fishing for unnecessary drama. You must be bored....Well, this is my exit! 👋 bye
@lowes Keep it up and continue to show diversity in your videos. ♥️ #Alwaysahappycustomer
Home Depot is way behind in everything. Much of their IT department is probably pushing retirement age.
Dude awesome tutorial thanks for the tips. Keep up the good work!
Sometimes, you just want a change!
That brick is in beautiful shape. Wouldn’t think of painting it.😀 I definitely need a mortar tutorial for my house!😂
Good job Ricky!
Great tips, especially the roller selection and paint / primer paint.
Super work I like it
Damn G this guy has style, nice job.
So much negativity. If you don’t like painted brick then why watch a house made of bricks being painted?
My thoughts exactly
There can be multiple reasons, the usual three are....
1) People don't always read what a link says before clicking it and that can happen a lot to people who are subscribed to a channel or just view channel suggestions or it may have been part of a automatic feed with this just being the next on the list...
2) People won't always know they don't like something until they see it, as people can be open to ideas but still react strongly when it turns out to be something they don't like...
3) People can have very different and strong opinions that will conflict with others to the point of being controversial enough to want to argue over it.
Painting wood or brick are prime examples of controversial topics, especially, as they can overlap environmental, health, and naturalist concerns. It doesn't help that painting brick can't be undone and would require replacing the brick to get the original look back, which could be a problem for future owners or even the same owner if they later decide they hate it...
Mind, trends and styles can come and go in popularity cycles over the years. Few things are always in style and again people are diverse and may prefer very different things and it can become a issue when it's something that can't be easily changed...
So it can be viewed as feedback to the content provider to let them know not to make more of this kind of video... versus unsubscribing and boycotting the channel over one video...
I agree with some of the comments the brickwork in this video looked like it was in excellent condition and it's been spoilt with paint
To learn mainly. I want to stain but it's a good idea to see the process for painting as well.
Sounds like people don’t wanna make money 😂😂
Nice! I'm definitely buy that roller! Nothing seems to get into the grout lines. I'm applying 2 coats of primer with a light brushing in between.
Think I may whip out my sprayer for the final color coats...
Well done. Thank you for posting.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I heard that painting brick is bad because the paint traps moisture. Brick staining is better.
listen im all for a nice standard brick house when the brick is beautiful, but not all brick houses are "cut from the same brick" (style of house, landscape, yard size, house age and size) . Some, like this one, deserved to be painted. Especially because of how much natural trees and bushes so close to the home, which in my opinion can make basic brick homes look older, rundown, and dusty. But now it stands out beautifully with that subtle color against the areas around it with out being overwhelming (straight white with black trim) or boring (aka agreeable grey). If you dont like painted brick then dont do it, but dont hate on people who are trying to personalize their home to make it more appealing to them. Its not always about stupid resale value either, some of us want a beautiful forever home that we love, which might mean painting the brick.
Love the new color!!!!
Shouldnt one take off extra’s like
mailbox and such first? This way you can clean the brick under them before painting?
Paint a dark color w sprayer or 3/4 roller if u want dark mortar lines...then roll w a 3/8 nap which will only color the bricks. One tone is drab
What to do, if you are painting a different color - over painted brick? Just paint right over?
Thank you bro. Helps a lot.
Make sure not to cover weep holes!
First thing I thought!! That first hole looked like a weep hole!
How do you know if it's a weep hole??
@@hazeleyez9144 they are usually along the bottom of the wall, top of the wall or right under the window sill.
I wish my brick looked like yours before it was painted. Unfortunately someone painted over it with a terrible color. No going back. So now I have to repaint it.
Amazing ♥️
Excellent Video!
I thought painting brick was a no no. Because brick is porous, (it’s clay) and clay absorbs water… and bricks need to breathe, so painting them basically suffocates the bricks pores, trapping any moisture inside, which can cause the integrity of the brick to fail down the road. Which is why they have products such as limestone paint, which is specifically designed to be applied to porous materials such as brick. Allowing it to release moisture as designed without causing structural defects to the brick over time.
Whenever I see a brick house painted it sets off alarms in my head & I’m wondering what are they hiding? You often see painted brick homes on poorly done flips.
Think about homes that may have been tuckpointed because of a problem and none of it matches the original. Painting will not be cloaking a problem; rather, it will be making the home more presentable.
I def wanna do this!
Looks great✌🏾️
Bout to paint my brick. It's a little cold outside suppose to reach 60 degrees.
Need to pressure wash the brick and porch. How long should I wait after washing. Is it to cold? Should I clean with hot water? Painting brick eggshell white, it should be a sinigloss? Oh! using same paint on 4, 10ft wood post. Brown porch paint shouldn't be to many questions. But while making this I notice it very windy, that could be a problem. Lots of leaves in fall.
I think in this case the house looks much better painted. Perhaps painting the door and shutters would have been an easier and maintenance free alternative. BTW one of the shutters looks like it was not installed correctly.
Nice technique. Arguable about the end result..... But i guess the tastes are not for debate.
Not all brick is beautiful. Obviously, if your house is lucky enough to be made of good-looking brick, don't paint it. But, if you have that cheap, ugly-as-all-get-out brick (like I do), there's no reason not to paint it. Question: do I want a breathable paint or not? There seems to be different opinions on this.
if painting the brick for the first time, how often would the house need to be painted going forward? is this something id have to do each year now that its been painted?
I painted my brick 22 years ago. The color changed over the last 10 years. My grey is taking in a green tone. But, the paint itself stayed intact. I’m sure the color change was due to the brand I chose at that time.
great video
hi. very nice video. what colour u used?
People keep hating on painted bricks. How about limewash, is that better for the brick? I'm one of those people who want lighter brick and these comments make me scared.
I'm the same. Wanting to change similar brick colour to a lighter colour but uncertain about how to go about it now
It’s a great way to do it everything is correct except the part we’re you start painting if you like to do it correct between two people spraying and one back rolling because in between each brick your going to have to brush not even 1.5 inch roll will get in there and primer is the most important part of paint brick. Good work overall.
The house looks awesome, What swatch is the dark color for the trim and door?
good
Great video with nice editing! I'd recommend putting just a bit more time into the "before and after section." I believe that would help inspire people to take action and make the changes they've been considering. Nice work!
My first question is why would you want to paint the 🧱 🏠..having a clean 🧱 🏠 with a nice clean yard would be ideal
I would fix those issues even if I didn’t paint
How do you stain a brick house? Where do you buy the stain?
Can somebody tel me what color that paint iz please!
Is the paint permeable?
Painting brick.. just wow.
Any other disc golfers notice the OTB skins GK pro music at 2:25
The house was beautiful the way it was.
It was ugly. Exposed brick like this on a basic house is dated.
Paint isn't always a good thing. At my old house the prior owner painted the light colored siding to make it dark. The extra heat absorbed from the dark color completely warped the siding. Had to replace it all.
What is the brick house is already painted? Do I need to remove the old paint first?
Nope, just paint over it
Now, needs a new walkway.
Only 2 gallons?
❤
Do I need permit to paint my house bricks?
No permit just make sure your community is not HOA
I've been told by a certified builder that it's best to use paints that allow moisture penetration through the paint into the brick. This encourages the paint job to last longer and resist cracking and peeling over the course of time, nothing last forever however I wouldn't recommend this paint for this job. LOWE'S is just trying to get you to come back every 2 years.
Thanks for sharing. I'm planning to paint my house this summer. What type of paint allows moisture penetration? This actually makes a lot of sense to me.
@@POOCHIESCLOSET I have never done it before but if you want your money's worth I would research that before going out shopping.
@@POOCHIESCLOSET from what I’m researching, stain is better. However, you cannot apply a stain to a surface that has already been painted or sealed
What’s the color code of this paint color ?
Stone mason gray
When did we get to a point where you cant give, much less have, an opinion?
You should use solid stain for bricks not paint.
Doesn’t brick need to breath? That’s it’s whole benefit. It seems people who paint brick houses are often flipping houses.
Dont paint brick, Limewash it if you want to change the color of your house. Products like Romabio absorb into the brick and won't create a barrier on top of the brick and wont chip or peel off!
Rookie move with painting tray! Anyone who paints for a living would use at least a 2.5 or 5-gallon bucket to hold his paint; that way, it is easier to pick up and move, less fuss, less mess,
and it can hold more paint.
Thank you chocolate Bob Vila!
It needs a vibrant color somewhere. Maybe the light fixture, mailbox & shutters.
Do your research latex paint is terrible for brick. Brick needs to breathe. That being said I love the look of some painted brick.
You are 💯 correct
Now its more modern. I thought it was a haunted house. But now its a beauty. 😊
Anyone notice the shutters ? Lol
Step 1: Don't cover up the beautiful brick on your house.
Tk
Simple fat lime wash would have been better. Synthetic paint on brickwork is a death nail.
That beautiful brick being covered up is so sad. Brick requires little to no maintenance while on the other hand if you paint brick it will chip, peel, fade and get dirty. Please don’t paint anymore bricks this is just a designer fad like green carpet from the 60’s 😂😭
Not to mention the poisonous, wasteful paint or moisture issues created by adding tight layers to previously stabile systems
The comment l was looking for.👍🏻
Agree
Not if you limewash the brick
Just use stain. Please dont paint. Morons.
Please don't paint brick! If the brick is over 60 years old the paint will destroy the bricks over time by sealing in moisture.
My son has the ugliest brick house.
Nothing to lose paint it!!
It looked better before
0% chance that two gallons properly coated that house. No forking way
Looks like he painted only the front of the house. Maybe the other sides are stucco or something.
I just purchased 14 gallons of paint for the front and back of my house. It is part siding.
The original brick looked much better than the cheap painted one afterwards .....
When I see painted brick, I automatically think the homeowner is trying to hide something.
Sometimes the homeowner can't help it if someone painted the brick before.
No
nice but it looked to much better before
Too dark
Don’t. That’s how.
I like this contractor, he is better than Ben
Painted brick defeats its purpose and beauty. It makes it look like a cheap trap house rental in a ghetto
Agreed!
Yes
I think this house looks better painted.
howe house looks better before....😂
Not a good look. Sorry
That was an OK video but make it more realistic. Our host didn’t have a single speck of paint on his hands or clothing. I don’t know about you but I’d be covered after a job like that.
Painted the whole house, but didn't fix or clean the crooked front step. It sticks out like a sore thumb with a nicely painted thumbnail. Awful.
Probably because the video was about painting brick.
It looks like a jail
It looks nice! That color brick was 😝. N to me it does look ghetto.
Brick will last hundreds of years. You will never successfuly remove the paint.
Truth
How to paint a brick house?
You don't.
Cinder blocks yeah. But never bricks.
no more brick painting. omg.
Never paint your brick!! Always stain it
This is very sad 😢
TIP #1: you don’t.
