Good to know
It's critical to understand what you are looking to achieve with your exterior renovation. Painting and staining are both effective services when it comes to breathing new life into tired, old surfaces.
Below, we explore just a few things you need to consider when it comes to staining and painting exterior masonry. We always stress the importance of consulting a professional to ensure your results last for many years to come.
Exterior brick painting requires maintenance every 3-5 years due to issues like adhesion failures from efflorescence. In contrast, brick staining is permanent - the stain absorbs into the brick, forming a chemical bond that tints the color without requiring ongoing maintenance.
Brick is a porous surface that must be able to breathe and release moisture. Painting traps moisture, leading to blistering, chipping, and potential water damage over time. Our breathable brick stain allows the brick to release moisture properly.
Paint simply coats the brick's surface in a non-breathable film. Our stain penetrates deep and forms an actual chemical bond with the masonry through a petrification process, permanently locking in the colour.
While paint creates a flat finish that hides the brick's natural texture, our slightly translucent stain enhances and highlights the inherent texture. You can feel the actual brick, not just paint.
