If you are remodeling and want to use brick, brick veneer is a good option. Brick veneer is a single layer of brick attached to another surface. It can be applied either indoors or out, and is available in any look ranging from a traditional red brick appearance to a more countrified, rustic look.

The different patterns used to lay bricks are called bonds. The most common bonds are Flemish (or Dutch), Monk, English, American, and garden wall bonds.

Severe weather (SW) bricks are used for exterior construction in climates subject to wetness and below-freezing temperatures. Moderate weather (MW) bricks are for exterior use in dry climates with freezing temperatures.
