We just purchased a brick home and now it's time to add some very needed outside light fixtures. I've got two questions:

1. What is the best method to cut away the brick to make room for a junction box.

2. Is the junction box then attached to the backer board?

(FYI- the brick is not veneer)

Any help would be appreciated!
