Brick Removal

Our current house has brick a few feet up in the front of our house. Over the years the bricks have been slowly leaning forward falling away from the house. We decided as long as we were siding the house it was a good time to remove the bricks. We didn't want to do it too soon before they started the siding because we would then leave the house exposed to the elements. We asked the builders to give me a little notice so I could get it done so as not to slow up their progress. As it turns out the notice they gave me was a busy week and weekend so all I had was Saturday morning until Saturday 3 pm to remove them, about 7 hours. With a small jack hammer and the help of Janelle's dad we accomplished it at 3 pm. The front of the house was a mess with bricks laying everywhere because we didn't have time to organize, we just did demolition. Of course it snowed that night so everything was buried, leaving clean up a challenge.
