Good morning all. There are 2holes in the façade of our home. Each about 1" dia. And an inch+ deep. Full brick façade. What should I use to fill and color match.

Thanks. --107.77.xxx.xx

If there is any spare brick left over, try crushing it to power and mixing it with a mortar to get the same shade.

Otherwise, try concealing it by installing an exterior object over the top. Example: I had a spot where half a brick was missing. Filled the hole with regular mortar and installed a flag pole bracket. Can't tell unless you're right next to it.

Frank,why do you think they drilled them,had to be a reason! Get something ornamental the same size.Otherwise fill the holes with regular caulking over a period of time.Then when the holes are filled,tint them with something from the masonry supply house,that they use to tint cement...........charlie................... --32.214.xxx.xx
