Brickwork for the aspiring pro
❌ If you don’t lay bricks straight, this is what happens.
Bad alignment, uneven joints, no level →the wall starts to move, crack… and eventually fails. Brickwork isn’t just about making it look good.It’s about doing it right from the start. One small mistake at the base = a big mess later. Learn it once.Fix it twice… or rebuild it.
