brick with holes - filler
I have a bunch of extra bricks (actually leftover from the construction
of the house) that is used as a garden barrier. what I want to know if there is something that I can fill the 3 holes of each brick. I'd like to keep out the dirt, weeds and insects that fill up some of the holes. -- ---=««-Dilbert Firestorm-»»=--- Zizzle that Fire - it's Zizzle Time !!!!!!! |

I think you can use patio block gap filling specially treated sand. They are treated and it acts like epoxy, as well as week killer(choking them out). |

Normally bricks are laid on their backs with their face facing up when capping a wall, this way the holes are covered by the neighboring brick. |

That'd take a Whole Lotta Brick, for a border around a garden. I put this in the 'life is too short' category- OP should splurge and go buy some proper edging bricks for his garden. The money and time to fill all those holes will be a lot more than he thinks. Wash and stack the extra house brick in a corner of garage or basement or shed- never know when it will come in handy to repair or alter a wall. -- aem sends... |
