Dan, do you know the folks who will be pointing up your house ?  if it  
is possible to have someone watch to make sure they wet the bricks 
first. otherwise those dry bricks will suck the moisture  out of the 
cement  to fast and that  job will not last as long. I've got a Senior 
blind friend who will proudly tell you she  soaked every brick  that 
went into their house and garage. in 1951 as a blind Lady she mixed 
almost all the cement  and soaked and carried all the bricks to a  
pulley system her husband set up.. that house has no problems since 1951 
except some pointing was needed.  a guy gave her a great price and  my 
son tells me almost all the work done just two years ago looks like  a 
half assed job .  reason being is those bricks were never wet  down  
prior to the repair or pointing was done. that is just a fyi. Lee
