Painting brick changes the whole look of a house, and it is a job that has to be done right the first time. We clean and repair the brick and mortar, prime with a masonry primer, and apply coatings made for brick so the finish holds up to sun and weather.
What's Included
- ✓ Washing and cleaning of brick and mortar joints
- ✓ Mortar crack and gap repair before coating
- ✓ Masonry primer and breathable masonry topcoats
- ✓ Exterior brick, fireplaces, and interior brick walls
How our brick painting process works
Inspect the brick
We check for moisture, failing mortar, and anything that should be fixed first.
Clean and dry
The surface is washed and given time to dry out fully.
Repair mortar
Cracks and gaps in joints are filled.
Prime
A masonry primer is applied to seal the brick.
Finish coats
Masonry paint, limewash, or stain is applied and worked into the joints.
What has to happen before brick is painted
Brick is porous and so is the mortar between it. Dust, efflorescence (the white powder that works out of masonry), and mildew all have to come off, and the wall has to dry completely, before primer goes on. Cracked or missing mortar is repaired first, because paint will not bridge an open joint.
A masonry primer seals the surface and gives the topcoat something to grip. Skipping it is the most common reason painted brick peels.
Paint, limewash, and stain: the options for brick
Paint gives a solid, uniform color and the most dramatic change. Limewash soaks into the brick for a soft, weathered look that lets some of the brick show through. Masonry stain changes the color while leaving the texture and variation of the brick visible.
Each ages differently and each suits a different style of house. We can show you how they compare on your own brick before you decide.
What affects the cost of brick painting
The wall area and the height of the house set the baseline. Rough or deeply raked brick takes more material and time than smooth brick. Mortar repairs, heavy cleaning, and the number of windows, doors, and trim to mask all add to the work involved.

Is painting brick a good idea?
It can be, on sound, dry brick. Painted brick does need upkeep over time, and it is difficult to reverse, so we talk through the trade-offs before you commit.
Can you paint a brick fireplace?
Yes. Interior brick fireplaces are cleaned of soot, primed, and painted for a clean, updated look.
Does painted brick need more maintenance?
More than bare brick, yes. Painted brick should be looked at periodically and touched up or recoated when the finish starts to wear, especially on sun-facing walls.
Can painted brick be returned to bare brick?
Removing paint from brick is difficult and rarely perfect. That is worth weighing before you paint, and it is one reason some homeowners choose limewash or stain instead.
Should new brick be painted right away?
New masonry needs time to cure and dry before it is coated. We can check whether your brick is ready.
