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: 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>

Q: How do various elements influence the expense of repairing a non-gas pre-fabricated fireplace unit?

• <div><p>Costs depend on material damage, labor, replacement parts, and whether additional structural work is required.</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: How serious are cracks in the chimney?

• <div><p>Cracks in the chimney can be very serious, depending on their location and size. Even small cracks can become serious over time if left unrepaired. Cracks allow heat and moisture to deteriorate your chimney and harmful carbon monoxide gas to seep into your home. Small cracks can often be caulked, while large cracked sections may require full replacement.</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.

Seth came, and with two helpers, got rid of the tree limb quickly. They cleaned up nicely afterwards. My only quibble was that he didn't email me a receipt as he'd mentioned.
