Brickstone Masonry

The Brickstone Story

In 1947 Taft Vordenbaum, Sr. founded Brickstone International in San Antonio. Brickstone is a patented masonry siding that can achieve the look of almost any stone or brick. In 1959 Mr. Vordenbaum’s son in law, David Bomba, joined the business, and in 1961 opened Brickstone of South Texas in Corpus Christi. Throughout the 60’s and 70’s Mr. Bomba installed Brickstone on over 1000 homes in the Coastal Bend. In 1970, category 5 hurricane Ceila struck Corpus Christi. In the aftermath, over 5000 brick homes were damaged or destroyed. Brickstone was the only siding product that did not incur a single loss. This distinction created our slogan throughout the 70’s and 80’s… “Ceila Tested & Proven!”

In 2002, Martin Bomba and his wife, Debbie, purchased the business from his father David. And, in 2010, Martin and Debbie purchased Brickstone International from Martin’s Uncle’s Taft Vordenbaum, Jr. and Jack Harris and Aunt Marguerite Harris.

Today, Martin & Debbie Bomba continue the Brickstone legacy. For over 60 years and three generations, Brickstone is still family owned and operated and Brickstone is still the absolute best siding product you can have installed on your home.

The Patented Process

Brickstone is a patented masonry siding that can be applied over virtually any wall and on any type of foundation. Unlike brick or stone, Brickstone can be applied to homes with slab or pier and beam foundations without the need for additional footings. Brickstone is even perfect for manufactured homes as a skirting or on the full home. Brickstone is applied wet in a patented four step process and can near match almost any stone or brick. Brickstone is full masonry and is more durable than any other siding product.Brickstone is hand applied, hand textured, and hand sculpted to achieve the perfect finish that you desire.

Step 1: Vapor Barrier & Lath
A vapor barrier backed galvanized metal lath is applies to the wall. This can be applied over almost any existing siding without the need for costly removal and disposal. An optional ¾” polystyrene insulation can be added for additional energy efficiency.

Step 2: Fiber reinforced Scratch Coat
A “scratch” coat of Portland plaster (sand, cement, gypsum, water) is applied. This is reinforced with a monofilament fiber called Stealth Fiber. This strengthens the plaster and helps minimize cracking.

Step 3: Brown Coat / Joint Coat
A “brown” coat of Portland plaster is applied in the desired color of the joint (grout) that will be seen between the stone or brick. This can be one of three shades regular, medium, or light.

Step 4: Patented BRICKSTONE finish
The final step of the process is the finish. This step is applied in the desired base color (typically limestone on stone finishes). After application, a variety of techniques are used to texture the finish. The finish is then sculpted to resemble the desired type of stone or brick desired by customer.

Step 5 (if required): Permanent Stain
If the finished stone or brick requires more than just the base color, other permanent concrete stains colors are applied stone by stone or brick by brick to achieve the desired result.
