How to Install Thin Brick Like A PRO!

Check out this other Thin Brick Video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZqLFk6Voe85qebMsi=WOpT0JJFBUz6rV6N

[@Dahaas2003]

Hands-down one of the very best DIY videos I've ever watched. This is EXACTLY what I was hoping to find on KZbin. Clear Photography (picture is worth 1,000 words), all major questions addressed pre-emptively, and even the cost data at the end. SO well done. Thank you!!

Yep,,,this guy was on point. I just finished my wall spot on because of him.

[@Fireplug-i9b]

Love this guy's videos.Absolutely no BS and a complete absence of ear-splitting Techno.Watching the way he just gets to the essentials without interminable,and completely unnecessary,details has encouraged me to take on several projects that I probably would not have done.Keep up the excellent work.

[@HomeProHero]

Thx for watching and I appreciate the comments! Take care!

[@matthewpeterson3329]

THANK YOU ! ! ! This video, nor anything half as comprehensive, existed a year ago when I started planning a lounge in our house. This is exactly what I want to do in our lounge. The only reason I didn't pull the trigger was because there were no DIY videos available at the time, and the professionals can be tight lipped about installation (they want you to contract them for the job). This video basically confirms what I expected... but now I won't have to wonder if I am making a mistake and ruining expensive material. AWESOME !

Glad the video helped! Good luck with your project and it looks harder than it really is! HPH

Excellent video! I am preparing for a very small project using this material. Now I have a plan in place to make it happen. Thank you!

[@HomeProHero]

I started with a small backsplash. Liked it so put in the room in the video and my bathroom. Really easy to do!

[@Mike-wc1ns]

Installation guides say to use a scratch coat of thin set and then a bonding coat on the brick itself; however, it seems a lot of people are using the really advanced adhesives (liquid nails, loctite, etc) and having great results without the hassle. I've prepped two walls in my basement and plan to use the same approach. Looks great!

[@HomeProHero]

Thanks for the comment! It can be done either way as you noted but the cleanup is a heck of a lot easier with the adhesives! That grout really tightens everything up! Good luck with your projects the look is awesome!

[@davidzwicker9988]

Adhesives allow for super easy start/stops than dealing with mixed thinset.

[@neilharrison2471]

Hi Did you do the brick slip installation ? What adhesive did you use ? Thanks.

[@hardlymotivates2593]

Indoors I’d say the adhesive is fine. I used these outside on a BBQ and I just the thinset

[@lindawinchell7346]

Looks awesome! I purchased three full boxes of facing brick at the good Will. Seven dollars a box. I'm going to use them until I run out around my sink area. If I don't care for the reddish look, I'm going to give them a white wash with chalk paint and then seal all of it. I loved your video. Very well explained. Thank you

[@mcdunn2010]

Excellent video! Can’t wait to tackle it myself. What did you do once you got to the ceiling? Mortar between ceiling and the top brick? I’m considering doing nickel gap ceilings. Would you recommend doing the ceiling first then the wall?

[@HomeProHero]

Thx for watching! I just used masking tape on the ceiling and used the same mortar between the ceiling and the last row of brick - clean look. Yep you want to do that ceiling first and that's what I did in the home office I have videos of. By putting the ceiling in first the brick will keep the ceiling from being unsupported, maybe sagging, on the edge where it meets the brick. The transition will be cleaner between the two if the ceiling is installed first. Take care!

[@zachpennington4401]

This is a great reference video. We had a brick wall professionally installed, but I’m now doing another one myself. This really helped me. The grouting is the part I’m not looking forward too. But I used adhesive mix and was concerned about consistency and got it right first time which took the stress away. Much more expensive brick slips in the UK 🇬🇧

I'm doing an interior wall in my home. Right now, it's just covered with a coat of paint. Do you have any tips for prepping that? Should I just strip the paint and let loose?

Do you think I can adhere the brick to the tile, or would I have to remove the tile first. I can’t seem to find answers to this question anywhere. Thank you!!!

[@HomeProHero]

Lol I have a thin brick video coming out on Sunday when I apply it to a fireplace! Regarding ur tile I would stick one brick and wait 24hrs to see how it sticks. If it's hard to get off it's a go. If it comes off easily tear off the tile. I think it will stick to the tile! Thx for watching

[@TishaRicks-h6b]

Thank you for this very thorough video! I've been wanting to find a video like this. NICE WORK! IT LOOKS BEAUTIFUL! ❤❤ I have a question for you. I would like to have those type of bricks put on the bottom of my cinder block foundation around the outside of my house, but the previous owner painted the cinder blocks. Is there anything additional that I will have to do to the comcrete cinder blocks being they're painted to make sure the bricks stick to the concrete cinder blocks?

[@HomeProHero]

Thanks for watching! I'm not sure if you will need to strip the pain of the cinder blocks. I would get a thin brick and adhere it the block. give it a few days and see how hard it is to pull off. If it comes off easy I would contact a paint store about a stripper to remove the paint. I bet you won't have to strip the paint and i think that thin brick is a perfect application for your idea! Thanks HPH

How did your fireplace sleeping tuen out? I’d love to hear how you did it.

[@chrismccord4475]

Great video. I'm doing this for a fireplace surround, but since it has corners would you start on the corners first or would you start from the center point and work your way out to the corners and cut them as needed?

[@HomeProHero]

Thats a good question! Thanks for watching. I'm guessing you are using the corner bricks provided by the manuafacture. If it was me I would start in the middle and work my way out to the corner pieces. Then cut the bricks between the corner and the last full brick in each row. I think the center of the fireplace is the most visual area for most people and you can hide those cuts at the corners better. Hope this helps and thin brink is a great application for your fireplace! HPH

[@ravey1981]

Fantastic video. Assume I can use a sand/cement mix to point them up rather than the premixed that you used?

[@HomeProHero]

Thanks for watching! I think everything is expensive here too :) I think you could for sure use the exact same process. Likely look great too! The thin brick and mortar is the exact same material you see with real brick installs. Using that landscaping Liquid Nails should do a good job holding the thin bricks tight to the concrete foundation. I have used that LN on exterior landscaping blocks and it work great and held.

[@markdinunzio9918]

Great video! Just about to tackle a similar project putting thin brick on a cinder block wall. The only difference is my thin brick has ridges on the back and not flat so need to make sure the adhesive covers both areas of the brick. Will the adhesive still stick even though the cinder wall is painted? I presume it’s so strong it’ll stick to anything! Thanks!

[@HomeProHero]

Thanks for watching! I'm pretty sure it will stick but what i would do is what it did in the video. Stick one on the cider block wall, let it dry for a day or two, than try to break or pry it off. If its tough to get off its a go! Its a great product! Good luck!

Will this method work for exterior walls on a stucco house?

[@HomeProHero]

I would say yes as long as you use the same liquid nails I used in this video because its mason to mason and rated for exterior use. I would test one thin brick, stick it on a hidden area, and try to pry it off in a few days. If it’s tough to get off I would do it. The only concern should be the glue because the brick and mortar are the real deal that you see outside everywhere. Hope this helps!

[@CVStressPA]

Is the mortar more workable than sanded grout? The people at Mapei strongly recommended applying a sealer on the brick prior to grouting to protect the brick from staining. Have you had this issue at all or does the mortar not cause staining the way grout could?

[@HomeProHero]

The mortar is pretty firm when it's applied. If it begins to leave the channel and drip on the face of the bricks it's too wet. It dried extremely fast because the bricks are sucking out the water. I would be more concerned if the bricks are sealed they won't suck the water out of the mortar maybe causing a weak bond between the brick and mortar. I would only seal the bricks once the mortar is applied and tooled and maybe only if it was a backsplash in a kitchen. Thx for watching!

If the thin brick is being installed in a bathroom reno over purple sheet rock, does the sheet rock need to be prepped as in mudded, taped, etc? Thanks!

[@HomeProHero]

If it were up to me, I probably wouldn't bother unless I already had the tape and mud on hand. Once you apply the brick to the wall and mortar it, it creates a strong seal that is both secure and water-resistant. Thanks

OK, thank you so much. That’s kind of what I was thinking too why I bother taping the mud and then going to all that trouble when I’m gonna put brick over thank you and what a great video you created. I certainly appreciate it. I watched every second of it and learned so much.

I have 20 ft tall dry wall ... will the wall support the weight of the brick?

[@HomeProHero]

I don't see why not. It's not heavy at all. I just posted a new thin brick video on installing on drywall - check it out

[@GeneralShaleBrick]

Awesome project and what a transformation you made with Thin Brick!

[@HomeProHero]

Thanks! Have you seen the total transformation? It's a great space!

[@GeneralShaleBrick]

@@HomeProHero We have not! Feel free to post a link and we will check it out!

[@LAkb24LA]

Will that adhesive stick the brick to textured and painted drywall?

[@HomeProHero]

I would use regular heavy duty liquid nails. Test a piece apply it to the wall. Check the next day and if you really have to pull or pry it off you are good! I think it will work fine!

Is it ok just to glue it to standard drywall? No cement board needed?

[@HomeProHero]

For sure I have done that all over my house. Just use regular liquid nails not the landscape stuff I used in this video. I just put out another thin brick video where I applied it to drywall check that out. Thx for watching

[@lolawalsh9187]

What kind of strips? Love your video.

[@HomeProHero]

Thank you! The wood strips can be anything. I think I just found some 3/4 wood in the garage and ripped it down to size. The cheaper the better it ended up as fire starter after that project! Make sure u subscribe for more got some really neat stuff coming!

[@jingles791]

I am currently working on a thinbrick wall with brickweb. I have never done anything like this before and had a hard time getting my bricks to break correctly. I scored a deep line in them before trying to break with a hammer and they were still not breaking in the right spots and wasting bricks.

A handheld grinder with a mason disc cuts perfect everytime! Little dusty but its perfect! I use one in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZqLFk6Voe85qebM

[@Galliano3625]

Great video ! Thank you !

[@HomeProHero]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@dustinpollock-cp8ww]

What did you use for spacers?

[@HomeProHero]

I just used some scrap wood that cut down to 3/8 by 3/8. Anything will work that is 3/8 inch. Take care
