How can I reface my fireplace inexpensively?

• <div><p>The most inexpensive option is to paint the brick facing of your existing fireplace. You can create an interesting design with the right color of paint, as long as the brick is in good shape. Sometimes, simply <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-clean-brick-fireplace.htm">cleaning the brick fireplace</a> makes a big difference in the way it looks. Otherwise, covering an existing stone, brick, or masonry fireplace facing with stucco or concrete is an inexpensive option versus tearing out the existing material and refacing the fireplace.</p></div>

Q: Can you apply limewash with a roller?

• <div><p>No, you can't apply limewash with a roller and expect good results. Limewash is as much a technique as it is a type of paint, and a freehand application with a brush is part of that technique. Hand brushing a large area can be tiring, but limewash goes on easily and only requires thin coats to be effective. </p></div>

Q: What does hearth look like?

• <div><p>A hearth often looks like a tile or brick floor that juts out from and surrounds your fireplace. A hearth can be made of stone, brick, ceramic, or any other fireproof material. Brick offers a classic and traditional vibe, whereas a hearth made of marble or ceramic may lean more toward modern aesthetics. The most common depth of a hearth is 20 inches.</p></div>

Q: What can be salvaged after smoke damage?

• <div><p>Hard materials like glass, metal, and hardwood floors, washable fabrics, and undamaged electrical appliances can often be salvaged after a fire, although it depends on the extent of the damage. For washable fabrics, make sure to use a phosphate mix during the washing process to extract the smoke smell. There are a few <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-to-throw-away-after-smoke-damage.htm">things you should throw away after a fire</a>, like canned foods and cosmetics, even if they don&rsquo;t look like they&rsquo;re damaged. </p></div>

Q: What kind of paint do you use to whitewash brick?

• <div><p>When it comes to painting your bricks, you&rsquo;ve got a few options. Traditionally, lime wash (a mix of aged, burned, and crushed lime and water) was used to whitewash brick or stone. You can also find premixed brick whitewash paint that cuts out a few steps and lets you get started faster. However, for the best results, we recommend using a DIY whitewash (white acrylic paint mixed with water).</p></div>

Noah was quick and efficient. The job was well done and the area was left clean. He was very patient and let me write down directions (to add to the manual) as he took time to show me how to start up and run the new generator.
