Removing a damaged brick

Coming through concrete and filling holes and brick are not exactly easy pass but there are a number of tools available all to the qualified Mason, that will help him be up to the chalenge.   The simplest way to remove 1 damage trick is to drill a hole and work out word from the opening. This can be achieved by drilling a hole into the break with a rotary hammer or hammer drill. What's one hole has been drilled repeat the process until multiple holes have been drilled into the brick that you want to remove. At this point in time you can begin chiseling out the break with a chisel or hammer drill with a chisel bit. Make sure to chip away all the the mortar so that your replacement brick will fit in cleanly.  What's all the excess mortar and the bricks have been removed you are ready to install a new brick
