I would leave the brick . If you know what your doing you can put a large wire, like chicken wire, hook to the brick then start adding your cement add your stone to that. I would lay out several pieces then know wear to start , and piece them together different designs, does not have to be close together, it looks better with cement in between. My husband made a beautiful; stone wall with wire, cement and different color large stone , then built a water fall. Can use quick mix helps. So beatufiful. But if you do not know for sure ask for some help. Good Luck Pem

hire contractors but not just any one. See some of their previous work and approve or disapprove. make sure u tell them exactlly what u want. And don't let them take away any of the exterior fro the house. It's all money because they resale it.
