Hello! My name is Anthony. I'm a new homeowner (relatively) and am new to this forum. I recently started a project to remodel my front porch, which you can see in the link at the end of the post. The porch was originally covered in a horrendous green carpet and I'm planning on cladding the concrete surface in brick pavers and brick veneer for the face.
Now that you have some background, now for my questions. How do I handle where the brick pavers meet the house? Do I need to cut the metal siding up to the height that the brick pavers will eventually be at (around 3/4 - 1") so that the pavers are touching the house? If so, what is the best way to cut it? Also, what is the best way to get the brick veneers adhered to the face of the slab? I was thinking about going the cementboard versus the scratchcoat route.
If I'm missing any information, please feel free to let me know and I will do my best to answer. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
