Damaged brick at ground level

RainbowLaura

Hi everyone,


This may be just my anxiety problem flaring up again, but I cleared out some old pots etc from the side of my house today and noticed some minor damage to two of the bricks:








Is this anything to worry about? The house is less than 20 years old. Would it be possible to patch them up to prevent further damage? They can't really be taken out and replaced, as one is partially below ground and they are also right down a very narrow gap between the house and some steps.


Any thoughts much appreciated.

My thoughts are to forget it.

You are worrying about nothing.

You mean them two small areas where the bricks are slightly chipped away?

They're just two slightly rough, slightly knocked bricks, those little missing bits make no difference, forget about them.

Thanks so much. You've both made me feel a lot better. Sometimes I think I was better off renting - not mentally ready for the responsibility of homeownership!!
