adding brick to my home

My home has stucco from the gound up to about 3-4feet off the ground. From there on up there is aluminum sidding. Can i add brick over the stucco on the bottom? The stucco looks old and instead of repainting it it might be worth the increase in value to do that. Any thoughts?

You can do it.

How you do it depends on what you have for stucco now. Check out to see if you have traditional 3 step stucco with wire or just a thin mixture of cement, sand and possibly lime.

In either case you will have to provide support for the brick.
