Creative Lead - Replicate Photograph

1483 Views 16 Replies 7 Participants Last post by  dom-mas
I have an opportunity to recreate a poolside fireplace for a professor. I am trained in Carpentry with little experience in masonry. This project requires elements of both disciplines. I am most weary about the legal requirements for a safe fireplace. I am also wondering if a stone veneer can be installed to look like the stone in the photograph as I think that would be easier, less expensive and not have me experimenting too much with the masonry. Thanks. Young Toronto Carpenter.

Pricing recommendations are against policy here, because there are way too many variables to make my price for such a job valid for your situation.

That photo actually looks like a veneer to me, but I'm not a mason. If you want to learn to do that sort of thing properly, I'd suggest that you subcontract that part of the work, and watch and learn. Any reputable mason will know how to build a proper fireplace, ro refer you to someone who does.
