For the past decade or so, we've seen whitewashing brick as a trend. While a white painted brick house is stylish for a few years, it quickly becomes a nightmare for your brick's lifespan as well as your your home's resale value.
Take this home for example. When the homeowners decided to whitewash their brick, I can imagine that they did their research. Unfortunately, there are hundreds and thousands of articles out there that told them there were no downsides to painting their house.
Not only does the house look like a disaster now, the paint is also ruining the actual brick. To remove paint from brick is very costly, but once the sealant has suffocated the brick and trapped moisture in the wall, you're looking at some serious structural damage, and damage that cannot be undone. Learn more from the experts on why you shouldn't paint brick.
