Heli-Ties are a great product for detached brick facade

I was in the process of painting my house which included removing and replacing trim moulding around the house. After removing the trim boards around the brick facade in the front of the house, I realized I had a problem with the instability of the brick facade where it loose and could easily fall over. Researching solutions I came across this products. I called and explained my situation and was hooked up with the correct product. Needless to say, the brick facade is now secure to the frame of the house. I highly recommend this product. I realize there are some limitations, such as, if you have very old mortar to the point it is brittle this might not be the solution. But in my project these HELI-TIES worked out real well.
