Things to keep in mind:
- Painted brick is a permanent change. It will never get back to the natural brick exterior it once was after painting it. You want to be sure this is a look you want before committing to the project.
- Painted brick can peel due to moisture and water damage – you will likely need to repaint the exterior every 7-10 years to keep it updated and maintained.
- You may need to clean the exterior more often with painted brick – painted brick will start to accumulate dirt and mildew over time, an occasional power washing may be needed to keep the exterior clean.
