Let’s be real: weep holes are a necessary evil.
No one’s pumped about them, but they’re essential for keeping moisture out and airflow in, and more importantly, they’re compliance-critical.
And when they aren’t the right size for compliance or end up filled with mortar and not cleaned properly, you’re risking call-backs which means wasted time, money, and damage to your reputation.
Being in the bricklaying game ourselves, we know how easy it is for weep holes to fall through the cracks, especially when you’re juggling multiple sites or running a crew. You’re not on every wall, all the time. One dodgy weep hole can mean a costly return trip and a few awkward phone calls. Inconsistent looking weep holes can also devalue a good wall.
That’s why we built the WeepEase™ Tool. It takes the pain out of a job no one enjoys but every bricklayer has to do.
A Simple Fix for a Real Problem
Traditionally, cleaning weep holes means poking with a Dutch jointer and hoping that the perp was the right size. It’s messy, inconsistent, and easy to overlook.
Worst case? You finish the wall, the mortar’s set, and you’re left chipping it out. Or worse, you’re called back, and you’ve got the Arbortech saw out and just wasted a couple of hours in travel and time.
The WeepEase™ Tool was designed to make this part of the job quicker, cleaner, and more consistent:
✅ Clears mortar with one easy motion
✅ Creates weep holes to the correct compliance size
✅ Reusable and tough enough to live in your toolbox
✅ Saves time, money, and stress
This isn’t a gimmick. It’s a solution to a common jobsite issue that every bricklayer has faced at some point.
Save Time. Avoid Callbacks. Keep the Inspector Off Your Back
Save time cleaning weep holes. Avoid callbacks from builders and inspectors. Get your weep holes looking perfect.
WeepEase™ doesn’t just tidy up the process, it systemises it. If everyone on your crew uses it, you know every wall has consistent, clean, compliant weep holes. No second-guessing. No chasing walls after hours.
On average, WeepEase™ can save over 30 percent of the time spent on weep holes, especially on bigger jobs. If it helps you avoid even one call-back, it has already paid for itself several times over.
It Pays for Itself FAST
Whether you’re laying a few hundred bricks or knocking out full facades, a box of WeepEase™ tools will pay itself off in one job. It becomes part of your system, a small change that makes a big difference to your workflow and outcomes.
How It Works
Using the WeepEase™ Tool is as easy as it gets:
- Step 1: Insert the Tool
Clear mortar so the tool sits on the DPC flashing. Insert it with the DAT logo facing up, handle out.
- Step 2: Lay Bricks
Lay bricks as usual. The tool stays in place.
- Step 3: Let Mortar Set
Wait until the mortar is set or close to set before removing. Don’t pull it out when the mortar is wet or too early, or you risk disturbing your brickwork.
- Step 4: Remove the Tool
Shimmy up and down to loosen and pull straight out.
- Step 5: Clean and Reuse
Rinse and return to the toolbox. Ready for the next job.
Each tool is shaped to give you the correct clearance every time, without having to measure or guess.
