Replace Second Story Siding With Brick

I want to make sure i do this right so it is properly sealed.
Replace second story siding with brick. This method works well for houses with basement foundations. Adding a brick facade will be expensive due to the fact that you will have to excavate your foundation and add some type of brick ledge to start from. Pouring a concrete brick ledge involves excavating around the foundation to depth of approximately 30 inches and pouring a 4 to 6 inch wide steel reinforced wall to support the new masonry siding. House siding costs 4 300 to 15 800 on average or between 3 to 11 per square foot depending on the home s size and materials used.
Isolated or small areas of damage can usually be repaired for a reasonable cost. The cost to replace siding adds 1 000 to 3 000 for removing the old siding. Our idea right now is to have the second story sides and back of the house done in vinyl but do the front of the first story in brick real. Defrancocontractors march 23 2018 10 57pm 4.
Vinyl siding can be removed from a house and brick put in its place. Before removing existing siding and replacing it with brick carefully consider whether or not the siding actually needs to be taken down. See first picture below the front bottom half of my house a faced with brick and the t1 11 is flush with it on the side of the house meeting with the brick on the front. The most important part of the job will be underground as a solid foundation must support the new brick.

Yes the proper detail is to fur out the siding over the face of the brick with at least a 4 overlap. My detail only shows how it should be capped and flashed if you do build it as shown. The cost to reside a 2 000 square foot home with vinyl is 7 100 on average.
How would you put on siding and transition from the siding on the second story around to the bottom of the overhang.
