Just stumbled upon your videos me and my wife are doing the same thing. 55 acres currently renovating the 1960s ranch house that was here, and working towards a custom build on the other side of our pond. As for the brick you made the right choice!

[@theElderberryFarmer]

The style of the house dictates what kind of mortar finish looks best. I think you were wise to decide in advance what look you wanted to achieve and then stay on top of what's being done to ensure your look is realized. Take care and God Bless - and Merry Christmas!

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

There's been a lot of things not conveyed to the people actually doing the work! Merry Christmas!

[@billelsener6192]

Nice catch on getting the brick work to look how you want I. I like both styles. May you both have a very Blessed Christmas.

[@KedTaczynski]

The imperfect mortar looks lovely.

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

We like it... really goes well with the rest of the design. Thanks for watching!

[@dannygavin5860]

Merry Christmas to you both

[@PhilMarshall-b4k]

I did grapevine mordor joints.

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

Have to look that up!

[@donaldcurtis9229]

Grapevine joint is very nice that swoop look or whatever he's got it's terrible

[@donaldcurtis9229]

You mean they couldn't tell the face from the back on the brick that's incompetency

[@donaldcurtis9229]

That's called a precite meeting

[@frankpfeifer3769]

ich mag euren Stil ! es trifft genau meinen Geschmack...schaut gut aus mit den Ziegeln ! Frohes Fest und liebe Grüße aus Deutschland

[@georgewest2096]

I like what they did first myself. I have laid a lot of brick and to me the ones you like are just sloppy. Even 400 year old Churches have clean brick joints so I don't think it is age relayed. Having said all that, it is your house and should be what you want, not what I like and that is what makes it your home. So of course you are right for you.

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

Everyone has their own style.

[@craigmitchell5628]

Me too

[@briansmith4588]

I love the more rustic look, modern is too clean & nice

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

We like it too!

[@brendahogue5487]

May the lord bless and protect you and your wife. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you as well!

[@jamesparham1467]

Merry Christmas Happy New Year to you and your family and thank you for the video

[@earlyriser8998]

Just buillt our new farm house. We caught 500 things that were wrong We lived on location and walked though the house morning and evening every day for 18 months.

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

18 months.....man, that's a long time of stress! Thanks for watching.

[@kevinbrewer2141]

I like the traditional or struck joints. It's probably because I'm a Mason. There are many different types of joints and designs in brick. I've never laid brick on side like that .Looks good.

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

these guys knew one joint.....we had to "teach" them this!

[@richardbrookins5406]

When building or having a house built you must stay on top of the build to make sure you get what you want not what they want you to have.

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

Lotta truth in that statement!

[@44busted]

Never thought about it before but it really looks great. Good choice. I like it much better.

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

We're glad they re-did it!

[@Outdoorsy368]

My in-laws were having a house built, my father in-law showed up every day and more times than he should've had to he found problems. Its like the contractors didn't know how to read prints or worse didn't care. It was a nightmare for them. Yours looks like its coming along beautifully, cooler heads prevail!!

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

It's frustrating. They just want to cover it all up with pretty sheetrock and trim. Thanks for watching!

[@Outdoorsy368]

​@PineyGroveHomestead he came home one day and they had cut out a basement window exactly where the print said not to. After a bit of "discussing" it got filled in to his specifications!!!

[@AdamDeal-KF0PRI]

its a semi circle step!😊 and the brick work turned out great even on the columns!

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

It sure is! Deb translated later!

[@AdamDeal-KF0PRI]

@PineyGroveHomestead lol ok!

[@bradfigiel2203]

A swoopy stoop done in the same brick on its side with a concrete border would look magnificent. Originally not a fan of smear but the finished result looks good.

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

We outlined the swoopy stoop yesterday.....should be installed in a week!

[@srsatlaf4730]

I like the smear mortar finish.

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

Thanks! It's all coming together.

[@donaldcurtis9229]

You mean to tell me they couldn't tell the face from the back amazing that's incompetence to me

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

Not sure why the did the first course that way....weird.

[@williamhunter-d1i]

different measurements on each side? trying to get the last course to work out

[@tpack670]

We built a custom in 2017 and it was very stressful. The brick the delivered was exactly what we asked for based on what our builder said was on another house that he built that we liked very much. The problem was he was incorrect on the name of the brick. My wife showed up when they had half the house bricked and called me to say it was not the brick that we liked. Luckily, we liked the brick more than our original choice. They also delivered the wrong stone but had to pick it up and bring correct stone. Swore I would never build another house. I turned 66 two days ago and I`m still working on that anger issue myself (my wife might say otherwise). Nothing wrong with taking up for yourself and making things right though. Some people will run over you if you let them.

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

I don't know anyone that has enjoyed the process! Thanks for watching!

[@rayfrawley8736]

A “swoopy stoop” a half circle step.

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

Winner Winner!

[@elliepedigo3390]

Love the bricks

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

Thank you! We're loving the choice.

[@Southalabamaoutdoors]

I would have used a darker mortar myself. And you have got to calm down things will go wrong especially on the interior, light switches will not make sense ( location)) to you once you see them installed. I hope you chose 36" or taller bathroom cabinets because once you have them where your not bending down to wash face brush teeth, you don't know what your missing..makes a huge difference.. Also don't cheap out on toilets and toilet heights.. Get quality water faucets ( kitchen and bathroom) I hope electrician ran wires to corner eaves for floodlights that you'll want. If you have an office I put twice as many outlets or double outlets in my walls in it..4 plugs) not 2.. Cause you'll need charging batteries for cameras, electronics etc. Also if you've thought about adding an epoxy coating in garage do it before you move in cheaper and easier to get done.

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

I think we got most of those thing....it's hard to think of everything!

[@dannygavin5860]

I would went with regular motar

[@hpw59]

wow...they had to tear out the brick because of the first row which will be covered by landscaping? That is a hard pill to swallow? Still watching so hopefully it all turns out okay👍

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

They got it the second time!

[@hpw59]

@@PineyGroveHomestead I stand corrected after watching rest of video..and I like the look

[@rhondaquinn649]

It’s great that you discovered the brick error while it was being installed. It may have been a lot harder to get corrected later. I love the look you chose. I understood what a swoopy stoop was, but I am a girl, so….🤣😂🤣 Merry Christmas!!!

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

@@rhondaquinn649 Merry Christmas!

[@donaldcurtis9229]

I see your problem you hired a Spanish crew

[@williamhunter-d1i]

dude your going to cover that up, need slope from the house anyways

[@barracade24]

It call a roll lock.

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

You are correct!

[@rockandrattleretreat5830]

So, you are Piney Grove and you had to buy Pine Straw?????

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

The GC ain't about to go gather it up from our pines!

[@EdwardWebb-z4x]

It can all be fixed, noo since getting all upset about it. They fixed it no cost to you.

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

No labor costs, but we will get charged for all wasted material!

[@DFord-rv3nz]

Hire American

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

Good luck with that!

[@DFord-rv3nz]

@PineyGroveHomestead spoken like a true slave owner. Good for you
