Changing a brick fireplace into a stone fireplace?
January 28th, 2010
channigan3 questioned:
Hi there. We are interested in changing the look of our brick gas fireplace. We thought of simply painting the bricks to change the appearance, but we’ve chose that we want to transform it completely. That is, we want a stone fireplace. I’m hoping this is a possible task (especially with all of those faux stone products out there). I’m wondering if anyone has suggestions of what products or what company I could use in order to go forward with this project. Thanks for your time and for sharing your thoughts!

Mail this post Can I convert a gas fireplace back to a wood burning fireplace & is it expensive?
January 23rd, 2010
Kevin K questioned:
Originally a wood burning fireplace, was converted to natural gas about 7 years ago. All original fireplace still there including damper, chimney flue, and intake vents. My thought was to go back about 8 to 10 feet and cap the gas line, then remove gas line, burner and fake logs in fireplace. Lastly get a pro (plummer?) to inspect before I light a fire. Safe for a medium skill level handyman to do?

Mail this post How can I mount a plasma above the fireplace on a mount that I can lower to the proper viewing height?

Brian T questioned:
I want to mount a plasma TV above the fireplace, but that height is too high for viewing. I would like the plasma to be able to be lowered when watching TV and then be raised to above the fireplace when I want to use the fireplace. By the way, I am thinking about a 50″ plasma. Any thoughts?

Any thoughts? It need to articulate downwards and upwards, but I cannot find a mount that does that.
