Transform your Brick & Stone with the Timeless, Old World Art of German Schmear!
Why should you turn your old brick & stone into a beautiful German Schmear masterpiece?
• It’s HEALTHY for your porous surfaces, allowing your brick/stone to breathe and expel water. This is a must in our East Texas climate to prevent water buildup and mold.
• It is maintenance-free and never has to be redone down the road (unlike lime wash and paint).
• Customizable coverage that allows the beauty and character of brick and stone to still show through while achieving the timeless old-world look that’s been “in style” for 1000’s years.
• Remodeling your old brick and stone with Timeless German Schmear adds value to your home.
Here's how we help turn your old brick & stone into Old World Art!
1. Choose a Style:
It’s important that our work matches your vision. We will go over our coverage styles with you (light, medium, or heavy) before we get started. German Schmear mortar is white and your overall look is determined by how much mortar coverage you want on your brick or stone. Customization is our specialty.
2. Cover & Prep:
The schmearing process can be messy so our crew meticulously covers the areas around our workspace to ensure the mortar only goes where it’s supposed to.
3. Coverage:
Our crews are trained to apply the correct amount of specialty mortar that fits the style of German Schmear you have chosen. With that said, every home is different and weather, types, and color of brick or stone, and location of your project are some factors that can affect the final product. The process is not an assembly line, rather it’s an artistic journey. We fill every grout line, cover cracks, and go over the face of each brick or stone to get the final result.
4. Dry Time:
Depending on the current temperature, the dry time can be as short as a few hours up to a full day or two. You will notice that the mortar goes on a beige or even grayish tone but once dry it will turn to a beautiful white.
5. Clean Up:
After we are finished, we will take extra care to clean up all of our mess, plastic, and materials and haul away any trash. We will also clean up any drops of mortar so it looks like we were never there. We even sweep, vacuum, and mop can’t beat that!

Karah H. - Tyler, Texas
"Let me tell y’all about our experience with Jessica. From the first contact, she was responsive, very prompt, and very knowledgeable. Our fireplace is large, she showed up in the morning as scheduled- we left the house- she sanded the gloss, and had the job completed by that day! I highly recommend anyone that who dislikes looking at their natural brick contact her and see what she has to offer. I guarantee you won’t be disappointed!"
