We determined that we could repurpose the existing brick to be removed from the wall during the demolition phase and that the brick on hand could indeed be cut and re-toothed into the new opening.  We supplied a new vinyl replacement window which matched his other existing windows including the grid pattern for the muttons.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/quintacontractors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/IMG_3933-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"White framed window on a brick wall with a blue trash bin and a pile of dried leaves.\" class=\"wp-image-1512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/quintacontractors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/IMG_3933-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/quintacontractors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/IMG_3933-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We were able to match the existing interior trim and repainted the trim and wall inside to complete the project.
