Brick construction offers numerous benefits, including exceptional longevity, natural resistance to fire, and substantial durability against weather extremes. The thermal mass of brick helps regulate indoor temperatures, potentially reducing energy consumption. Brick homes often maintain their aesthetic appeal with minimal maintenance, and many buyers perceive them as premium properties, potentially supporting stronger resale values compared to homes built with other materials.
Brick veneer consists of a single layer of brick attached to a standard wood-framed wall, providing the aesthetic of brick without serving as the structural support. This approach costs between $3 and $20 per square foot, depending on the specific type. Structural brick construction uses brick as the actual load-bearing wall material, requiring more extensive materials and specialized construction techniques. Most contemporary "brick houses" utilize the veneer approach rather than true structural brick.
Adding brick siding to an existing home costs $72,000 for a 2,000-square-foot residence. Real brick siding ranges from $10 to $20 per square foot, while more budget-friendly alternatives include thin brick veneer ($3 to $10 per square foot) and faux brick panels ($6 to $13 per square foot). This renovation requires professional installation to ensure proper moisture barriers and structural attachment.
