What is the maximum height a freestanding brick wall can reach?

A freestanding brick wall that's one brick thick can typically reach six to eight feet high. If you need a taller wall, you'll need to include a second layer of bricks and a reinforced footing to ensure stability and comply with building codes. Your bricklayer will be able to make recommendations based on your project’s specifics.

Do brick walls add value to a home?

Yes, brick walls can have a positive impact on your home’s value by enhancing its visual appeal and security. Brick walls are an attractive feature for many homebuyers. They offer an elegant upgrade to your property's exterior and increase privacy for your yard, which can boost your home's marketability and resale value.

Are brick walls more expensive than concrete walls?

Yes, brick walls are generally more expensive than concrete walls due to higher material and labor costs. Installing a brick wall costs between $10 and $45 per square foot, with labor charges of $70 to $110 per hour. In contrast, concrete block walls cost $10 to $20 per square foot. The increased craftsmanship and time required for brickwork contribute to the higher price.

At Allshire Building LLC, we pride our company on reliability, communication, integrity and quality work. We are experts in our trade and will do our best to keep you as educated as we can on your particular project. We look forward to earning your business!

"I recommend Allshire highly and without reservation. Russ, John, and all their crews were professional and we felt comfortable throughout the process. Our bathroom was fully gutted and rebuilt (with same footprint) - the end result was fantastic and I believe the value was very high. Just to make others aware - we had a fair amount of back and forth with the inspectors from our township and had several hardware items delivered to our house that were broken so they had to be re-ordered - so job took longer than we (and Allshire) expected. That said, the company has many positive attributes: 1) communication is solid 2) attitude is positive and professional 3) final workmanship very high 4) pricing very reasonable 5) overall demeanor is friendly and flexible which is what we wanted. We will call them again when we get ready to remodel our kitchen. Allshire is a good company because it is made of good people."

Within the past 20 years there has been a dramatic change in brick-style texture and size, and all of these things are considered when choosing the best match for your home.

"I was impressed with this company from The first time they came out to quote the job because I was immediately handed a folder that contained their license and proof of insurance. I accepted the bid and, while we got off to a few false starts, the work was completed in April 2025. The crew that came out was professional, efficient, and very respectful of my property. The chimney and tuck point repair work that they completed was professionally done and you could tell that they took great pride in Their work from the pictures that they showed me of the completed job. I would recommend this company to anyone needing brickwork restoration and would use them again!"

"This company was hired to grind out three old stumps that had been left by tree services that didn`t stump grinder and remove some trees behind and next to my garage. The crew damaged my fence when they dropped part of the tree on it and did not apologize. I had to pay someone to repair the fence. The main tree I wanted removed was on the lot line, and they accessed it from my neighbor's yard, leaving debris there. They also removed smaller trees behind my garage. I was told they couldn't bring a stump grinder for them because it was too close to concrete, but they would cut the stumps flush to the ground. To allow stump out to be applied. However, the residual stumps are already putting out new shoots. They told me that day. The day they cut the trees down, they told me they would send the stump grinder out on a later date. I was told to hold $150. From the payment. That I would give them when they brought the stump grinder out. They are denying that they have any responsibility for doing the stump grinding that was part of the original project. Now, I need to hire somebody else to grind the stumps."

Sun Home Improvement is family owned and operated for over 30 years! We start and complete our jobs on time and use only our own professional trained installers. Additional email - info@sunhomemi.com Additional phone number - (734) 354-9988

"From start to finish the job was completed with attention to detail, on budget and on time. The trim installers (Chris and Danny) were fantastic. They took their time and cared for the project like it was their own house. It was a big project. I had all outside exposed wood covered in trim and/or vinyl soffit. I can't thank Sun Home enough. During the gutter installtion a small piece of the trim was dented and it wasn't a huge problem but the job was done so well that I asked for it to be replaced. This happended, by the way, when a second crew, not Chris and Danny installed the gutters. On final inspection I showed Dave ( saleperson and delightful man) and he said give him a few days and they would take care of it. Like clockwork, he sent Chris back out and took care of it. To Chris, Danny, Rob and Dave, I thank you all for a well-done project from start to finish. I highly recommend Sun Home!!"
