In this video, I'll show you how to get a cool vintage look inside your space by building a brick veneer wall using reclaimed old Chicago brick. I did this a little differently by cutting the brick in half, which cuts the amount of brick needed by 1/2, while giving you the exact same look of a full brick wall.
*NOTE: This was built on a concrete slab on grade. If your floor is elevated - like over a crawl space, on an upper floor, or you have a basement, you very likely will need to add some support to your floor or it may sag. This veneer weighs around 1,500 pounds so it is EXTREMELY HEAVY. Also, make sure to mechanically fasten the veneer brick to the wall structure behind them. I did this with screws into each stud every 18" vertically, which protrude approximately 1" into the mortar joint. You can see my solution at the 12.07 mark in the video. DO NOT rely solely on the tile adhesive to keep the bricks secured to the wall structure.
I spent around $400 for the brick. So with mortar and other minor expenses I probably spent around $500 (in 2014 dollars).
