This week I finished a project that I’m excited to share with you!
The job involved breaking out some bricks that were popping out and replacing them with new ones and stamping a patio.
I ended up needing to replace about 200 bricks. As I began looking for the specific style brick to match the current ones I found that the specific type of they were quite rare now, so, after talking it over with the homeowner we decided to go with some similar looking bricks from Syracuse.
After most of the brick work was done I pulled up the flagstones on the patio area and poured a 2” overlay on both the patio and front steps. I stamped the overlay in Ashler slate pattern, with a brick border. Afterwords, I added a black secondary color and stained the brick border red. Choosing color is an artistic endeavor and can sometimes be quite a project but in the end we were able to find a red that was suitable.
Check out the photos and let me know what you think!
