How to install a window into a brick wall is a difficult project to complete.
Once permits are secured, our master masons take over. Cutting a precise opening in a brick wall is no small feat.
The first step is you do not just cut a opening into the brick wall. Our masons expertly cut through the brick forming a tiger tooth pattern. As the brick is removed from the cut in the wall is saved, oftentimes the face brick of your home may not be available. Once the brick is removed we will install a 3/8″ x3″x4″ steel a lintel embedded on either side by at least 4 inches. This is to support the load to your house or business. This will ensure the load is sufficient to carry the weight above the opening. If your home or business is Masonary constructed block and brick, we will use two lintels. If your house is framed and has only face brick a secondary would beam will be installed on the interior to support the load. This will require removal of the drywall in the interior of the property. Once the lintel has been inspected by Northern Virginia building officials, we can move to the next step. Our professionals will match not only the color of the mortar, but the way it is jointed. Finding the right mortar color will assure that if someone looks at the window they will never know that the work had been done. At this point, we will take the brick retained and fill in tiger tooth cuts that have been made in your wall. The brick will be laid in the fashion whereas the joints have been struck to replicate the original mortar in the home. Then Opening is perfect for the new window. After the brick work is completed, we install a thermal vinyl replacement window or wood window, depending on the client’s building design.
