Advice on tidying fireplace brickwork
Paul Gardner
7 years ago
Hello. We have an old open fireplace that is a little rough around the edges. In the long term we want to put a log burner in but in the short term we would really like to tidy/clean the brick work up. Ive attached an image. Basically we want to remove the bricks that stick out on at the sides so the wall is flush to the bottom rim, so there is a tidy L shape profile. Im a complete DIY novice so i was wondering if anyone knew how much of a big job this was, if its actually something i could do myself, or if anyone had ant other suggestions to what i have said. Thanks in advance.
