The brick aesthetic and style is a popular choice when it comes to remodeling a home. It gives a sense of warmth and creates a cozy ambiance for the environment. We all know exposed brick is attractive, however, not everyone wants/needs a plain red brick wall for their home. If you choose to remodel with brick, you have to make sure it matches the existing aesthetic of your furniture and space. This means you have to get specialty brick with the right texture and the right color. This can be hard to do with traditional brick. This is why you need to go faux when looking for that specialty brick.
Why Traditional Bricks are Hard to Customize
If you want to use traditional brick, there are often only limited options to choose from in terms of colors and designs. This is because bricks are often standardized and it becomes very costly if you want to have your own specialized brick design and colors. Even if you buy the traditional red brick and paint over it, there becomes a slew of problems you need to worry about. Problems such as extra cleaning maintenance and running the risk of moisture chipping and cracking are just some of the issues. To avoid this, you will notice that most people will often choose faux to reduce their cost and make it easier to achieve their design of choice.
Is there a difference between Faux and Traditional Brick?
When faux and traditional brick are used in remodeling situations, they tend to achieve the same goal of creating a beautiful appearance. Faux just happens to be easier to install, more cost effective and easier to customize. Some think that just because it is faux, it looks like a fake brick. However, this is far from the truth. Faux Brick has come a long way. It looks just like the real thing especially when you consider Urestone’s Faux Brick Series. From up close and far away, it is hard to tell the difference between the two. The only difference and time you should use traditional brick would be if you need it for structural support.
