The Benefits Of Using A
Brick Or Flagstone Fireplace
Comfort
One of the most beneficial factors of having a fireplace installed with winter right around the corner is the unmistakable warmth that a fireplace can bring to any home.
Whether you have been running errands all day and want to warm up or if your children are finally ready to come inside after a cold day, nothing soothes the soul better than a fireplace.
Styling
A key feature when working with natural materials like stone or brick is their ability to conform to any design you desire with multiple variations of the materials and color schemes.
The different designs that can be achieved with stone and brick are called bonds and when working with brick you can achieve bonds like stacked bonds, herringbone, basketweave, running bond and more!
Durability
A massive advantage of using brick or stone in the construction of your fireplace is that these materials are extremely durable and in some cases, can last as long as or longer than your home!
This is because stone and brick don’t take damage from heat over time and can be cleaned of soot or dust with ease, just make sure to ask your contractor how.
Stain Resistance
If you have a home with children, you know just how easy it is for random stains to come out of the blue. That is why we offer sealers for our brick and flagstone fireplaces.
With a sealer in place, your natural materials will be protected from stains from liquids but also from soot or ash that may accumulate on its surface.
Maintenance
When working with brick fireplaces, you will find that they don’t need much maintenance to upkeep and in most cases, bricks can go without painting or other treatments and last upwards of 50 years with ease!
As for flagstone fireplaces, we recommend the use of a sealer to keep stains off the stone but if a stain does occur, a solution of water and muriatic acid can be used to clean it.
Labor Costs
If you choose to work with a natural stone like flagstone, be prepared to wait a little longer and pay a little more than when working with brick as stone is heavier and harder to install.
With brick, you will experience a faster and more affordable installation process as basic designs can be accomplished with relative ease, more intricate designs may take longer and cost more.

No matter how you look at these fireplaces, one thing is for sure, they will add an element to your home that not many have at an affordable price! On average, homeowners have spent around 3,000 dollars on outdoor fireplaces but they often receive that back; if not more, when they sell the home.
