    Do you mean you cemented over the weep holes in the brick around your house? Those gaps in the brick mortar are necessary for proper drainage. Brick is porous so it will absorb water and then accumulate behind the bricks unless the weep holes are there to allow the water to drain.

      This is where the cement chipped off at the top of the garage door and the inside of the brick was exposed from below. Not a weep hole.
