Tune in here for this June 7, 2025 episode of the Home Depot Home Improvement show on WBT with John Gordon and David Dovell.

On this edition of the program, John and Dave talk about a common but often overlooked issue in masonry homes: rusting steel lintels and the resulting brick separation. They explain how rust causes metal lintels to swell, pushing bricks apart and leading to structural problems. The hosts discuss potential fixes, including removing and replacing affected bricks, using rust-inhibiting products like Extendz or Flex Seal, and repainting lintels before installation. They stress the importance of preventative maintenance, such as treating and painting steel lintels to avoid costly repairs down the line.
