Hi Everyone,

I'm trying to help my parents with some house maintenance. They have a 30+ year old mostly brick house. I would like to replace or repair a damaged brick. The damaged brick is directly under a window. Also, the brick trim-work under this window was done with the short-end of the brick facing out. One of these bricks has a pretty deep chip in it (3 or 4 inches). This chip runs the width and length of the entire end of the brick. In other words, this chipped brick really stands out. How can I repair or replace this damaged brick?

Any and all suggestions, tips, direction greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
