Unusual Brick

[John Evans]

5 year old brick veneer front. Any thoughts on the unusual brick facing? Some areas look like spalling issues, but no evidence of actual spalling.

Made that way. I don't see any problem whatsoever.

Ditto.

Seems like every third house around here has that type of brick veneer.

It's 'rustic', doncha see...

[Christopher Currins]

By design.

Thanks to all for the input

Came off the truck that way. Not my personal liking, but somebody bought it.

These are common bark face brick.
I do not like the tuck myself.
They were pointed to early. Not when the masonry is THUMB TIGHT.
That is why there is oozing or a liquid look to the tuck.
The masonry should have been died red or okra even Brazilian brown.
It would leave a softer look to the bark face or physical dimensions.
Good brick. Never heard of recall.
