Brick staining is not painting—it’s a completely different approach. And when done right by a team that understands the science, technique, and importance of detail, the results are stunning and long-lasting. With 519 Painters, you don’t just get a surface-level change—you get a premium service delivered by professionals who treat your home like it’s their own.
The Power of Professional Brick Staining: is beauty with breathability. Colour with character. Style that lasts.
Unlike paint, which coats the surface and traps moisture inside, brick stain is a breathable, mineral-based product that penetrates deep into the masonry. It works with the natural properties of brick rather than against them—meaning it won’t peel, flake, or trap water the way traditional paint can.
Our brick staining services allow homeowners across Southwestern Ontario to maintain the texture and performance of their brick while dramatically improving its appearance. Whether you're transforming outdated colours, blending old and new additions, or enhancing curb appeal before resale, brick staining offers a sophisticated solution that lasts for decades.
We use premium-quality mineral stains specifically formulated for porous masonry. These products don’t form a film on the surface. Instead, they bond with the substrate, allowing your brick to breathe, expand, and contract without cracking or fading prematurely.
And because we do this every day, we know what it takes to prep, test, and stain properly—ensuring a seamless, natural finish that protects your investment and elevates your home’s design.
Full-Home Exterior Brick Staining
Whether you’re dealing with outdated red brick, mismatched tones, or a facade that’s simply lost its charm, our full-home exterior brick staining service can transform the entire look of your property. We work with homeowners who want a modern refresh without the risks of painting or the cost of full replacement.
We begin by evaluating your home’s current brick condition, selecting the ideal stain formula, and preparing sample swatches for your review. Once approved, we clean and prep the entire surface and apply the stain in even, consistent passes—taking care to highlight the natural depth and pattern of the brick. The final result is a rich, updated finish that maintains texture while dramatically improving visual appeal.
Partial or Feature Wall Staining
Sometimes, a full-home brick stain isn’t necessary. For clients who want to highlight or tone down a specific area—like a front entrance, porch wall, fireplace, or garage surround—we offer localized brick staining solutions that blend or enhance your space without altering everything.
This option is ideal for tying together new additions with older sections or creating a visual focal point using darker or lighter stain variations. We pay close attention to colour matching, absorption rate, and finish consistency so the finished product feels seamless, not piecemeal.
Brick Staining for Additions & Repairs
When a new addition or repaired section doesn’t match your existing brick, it can throw off the visual flow of your entire home. Brick staining allows us to blend new and old brickwork for a cohesive, intentional appearance.
We carefully test stain absorption on both materials, creating a unified colour tone while respecting the natural variation of the surface. This solution is ideal for additions, window infills, or spot repairs where traditional matching options fall short.
Interior Brick Staining
Brick isn’t just for the outside. We also stain interior brick walls, fireplaces, accent walls, and pillars. Whether you want to tone down a too-red fireplace or modernize a rustic feature wall, interior brick staining provides a clean, breathable way to achieve the perfect colour without losing charm or texture.
Our water-based stain products are low-odour and safe for interior use, with a range of earthy, modern, and classic hues to choose from. We help you select a colour that complements your flooring, cabinetry, and interior palette—and we execute it with clean masking and surgical precision.
Colour Consultation & Sample Testing
Every home is unique—and so is every brick. Before we apply any stain, we perform on-site colour consultations and live sample testing to make sure you love the final tone. Stain can look different depending on how porous or textured your brick is, and we account for that by testing multiple coats and dry times on an inconspicuous section before beginning full application.
With our design team’s guidance, you’ll confidently choose a stain colour that suits your home’s style, landscape, and resale goals—whether you want earthy and neutral or bold and modern.
Protective Sealants & Long-Term Warranties
While brick stain itself is highly durable, certain conditions—such as north-facing walls, high traffic areas, or exposure to heavy rain—may benefit from an added sealant for extra longevity. We offer breathable, water-repellent sealants that work in harmony with our mineral-based stains to further protect your home from freeze-thaw cycles and organic growth.
We back every brick staining project with a comprehensive warranty and maintenance support. Because we believe in doing things right—and making results last.

Brick Staining FAQs
Brick stain penetrates and bonds with the brick, maintaining its breathability. Paint, on the other hand, forms a film that traps moisture and can lead to peeling, cracking, or even structural damage over time. Brick stain looks more natural, lasts longer, and allows your masonry to perform the way it’s meant to.
