Brick Veneer Installation in Nashville, TN
Brick veneer is a single layer of brick attached to a wall's structural frame, not a load-bearing wythe. It gives a home the look and feel of full brick without the foundation load or cost. Most Nashville homeowners use it to upgrade a wood-sided exterior, add character to a fireplace wall, or tie a new addition into an existing brick facade. Done right, it lasts decades and weathers Nashville's freeze-thaw cycles without cracking loose.

When to Call
When You Need Brick Veneer Installation
- Your wood-sided 1990s home looks dated and you want a permanent brick exterior.
- A new garage addition needs to match the original brick on your Green Hills home.
- You want a brick accent wall behind a living room fireplace without a full rebuild.
- Storm damage stripped your existing veneer and the substrate underneath needs addressing.
How It Works
Our Process for Brick Veneer Installation
- 1
Wall Assessment
We inspect the existing substrate, check for moisture intrusion, and confirm the framing can support the veneer load properly.
- 2
Weather Barrier and Metal Ties
A moisture barrier goes on first, then corrugated metal ties anchor the veneer to the frame at code-required intervals.
- 3
Brick Setting
We lay courses in running bond using Type S mortar, keeping joints consistent and building in weep holes at the base course.
- 4
Tooling and Cleanup
Joints are tooled before the mortar sets fully, excess cleaned off, and the finished face inspected for voids or alignment issues.
Nashville Context
Why this matters in Nashville
Nashville's humidity drives moisture behind improperly installed veneer, and we see that failure regularly on East Nashville renovations done without adequate flashing. Getting the drainage cavity and weep holes right the first time prevents serious wall rot down the road.
Straight Talk
About pricing & scope
Scope depends on the wall's existing condition, the brick unit you select, and whether substrate repairs are needed before we start. Curved walls, arched openings, or tight access points add time.
