 Re: 4 courses up... and a big question
Cracks between bricks, not within the bricks is nothing. Yes, mortar those areas, clean them after a few minutes, but do only a couple bricks at a time or you will be further frustrated. As for the inverted V, you will need to photo a spot so that proper advice can be given. With the inverted V, Ken has posted ways to handle it, I believe after his 7th course? Let's say you have the V, eyeball the gap and bevel the top to bottom of each brick connecting them. Example is .25 gap at bottom needs to have .125 shaved from each top corner wall. Again, check out Ken's gallery for further clarification too. Lastly, photo these issues for us to better help you. |
