Did you know outdoor living spaces like this one greatly increases your home's value and can bring you a 60% - 80% return on investment?! Does this video inspire you to tackle a project like this one?
Considering the lack of work during covid, I'm sure Tony was happy to have the work. I married a brick/stone mason's daughter. Her entire childhood is made up of lean and fat years.
Love it .I have been a stonemason for 35 years yes I would have done somethings differently but the end result is very nice and more important your happy with it . Most likely the reason behind the wide range in price is because of different way of doing it .
This outdoor fireplace turned out incredible! Loved hearing all those pro tips, too-definitely some things I wouldn’t have thought of. Also Tony is a great person. If I ever tackle a project like this in Bakersfield, I’ll probably give Fireplaces Of Bakersfield a shout for some extra guidance!
Great job Tony! I like the rake you had on the back of the fire box. Those radius's look great as well. From one mason to another, you did a hell of a job!
Thank you for sharing your outdoor fireplace project. Well done! I hope to have one built in the near future. Need to get through the kitchen remodel first. LOL
Wonderful outcome, exactly what we are hoping to achieve. I love the mason built look with mortar tucked joints over the stacked stone kits. Thank you for sharing your experience with such detail.
I had this fireplace photo saved and had no idea it was yours and that there was a youtube video! How exciting. I really want to do something like this!
Cheers for the Video clip! Apologies for butting in, I am interested in your opinion. Have you considered - Panilliaan Immaterial Prevalence (probably on Google)? It is a good exclusive guide for protecting your family from danger without the headache. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my buddy after many years got astronomical success with it.
Good idea about "lowering the opening" to the firebox at the last minute. It probably wouldn't have been a problem for such a massive chimney that draws well, but if there is going to be a smoke problem with a fireplace, many stem from the top (entrance) being too high. Lowering 4 or 5 inches increases draft, and of course, makes it that much harder for any smoke to get out.
Still enjoying your hard work? Great project. For the stone veneer you selected from Horizon, what stone and color did you choose? Is that 19th Century in Sedona color? Thanks.
Yes, we still love the outdoor fireplace and use it nightly when the weather is cooler! We used Horizon Stone 19th Century Canyon Ridge. Hope that helps!
What did you use to wrap and secure the string lights through the chimney cap? I'd like to do something similar but I'm concerned about the heat melting the light wire at the top of the chimney. Great work!
They came out beautiful. You should get a cast iron heat deflector they come in all kinds of Decorative styles which will radiate the heat forward giving you more warmth
Im a carpenter myself and i have always admired the bricklayers skills, i tried blocking a doorway with bricks once, thank god it was to be covered, not pretty at all 🤣
Correct. You’re at risk for pneumoconiosis, an irreversible, progressive, fatal restrictive lung disease when you inhale fine particles such as cement dust.
@@michaelz6870 I agree! My local brick & stone yard gave me a couple of catalogs to look through and then ordered a few samples for me to see in person. I ended up choosing Horizon Stone 19th Century Canyon Ridge because it complemented our house so well: www.horizon-stone.com/19thcentury/
Awesome project, and it was designed well to look very good. There is only one slight problem on how the seating and hearth were veneered. The horizontal slab stone should overhang the vertical veneer stone, rather than the vertical stone being in front of the horizontal hearth stone. As it is installed, there is a water penetration joint at that intersection. I understand it is not part of your house, so water intrusion is not a huge concern, but eventually, the water intrusion will damage the mortar holding the vertical veneer stone, and repairs will be necessary, especially after any wet freeze - thaw cycles. Maybe this occurred due to the size of the hearth stone that was used not being wide enough, so something to plan for to avoid this situation.
I heard John Malecki reference you as a maker he greatly admires in Alex Mazhukhin's podcast, and thought I'd look you up and check out your content. I agree with him; I'd love to see more content from you on youtube! Keep up the amazing work, Jen, and well done.
Scrolling through TH-cam looking for DIY Fire Place... As I’m watching, I’m thinking this dude looks familiar... It’s freaking Adam! Glad you guys are doing well.
It would be so much fun to learn how to do all of that work myself rather than hiring someone. It would require a lot of tools, patience, and time, but it would feel so good knowing it was made with your own hands.
Looks great. Anyone near the dry concrete mix needs to wear a mask. The dust is caustic. In my area the serious pro's dig the footing several feet deep.

I would have considered placing a capped gas pipe stub in case you ever decide to use gas.
That concrete made me cry.
What is the manufacturers name , color and stone type. I want that exact stone ahaha
Looks great
I’d think it would be easily a 100% return on investment.
Everyone needs a Tony!
Considering the lack of work during covid, I'm sure Tony was happy to have the work. I married a brick/stone mason's daughter. Her entire childhood is made up of lean and fat years.
Looks amazing and works as a privacy wall from neighbors! The best thing is that it was accomplished as a family project.
The end result is really nice and I know i would be really proud to have this in my garden.
Thank you.
This video is so well done!!
Easy to watch.
Perfect amount of detail.
Beautiful.
I am impressed! You and Tony did a great job

agreed, 40 years myself. It looks nice and you live in a warm climate, so freezing isn't a big issue for you.
Agreed
Good job Jen & Co! Done well.
Tony did FANTASTIC!
OBSESSED with this!
Great looking fireplace. Everyone should be wearing a mask when cutting those stones.
That is a master-level outdoor fireplace. Very awesome!!

Hey Jen - what did you guys use to white wash the stone? Looks amazing

Looks beautiful I mean you
Nice inspiration. Thank you for the detail on tips and tricks that make the build easier for cleanup & is also useful to the build.
Glad it was helpful!

Thanks! We installed this string light hanging kit and it works awesome! amzn.to/4dStklo
Great video!!
good job tony

Great idea, thanks!
What does that look like? I googled it but only cooking pieces came up.
Very cool
wow that's super nice!
looks amazing!
Im a carpenter myself and i have always admired the bricklayers skills, i tried blocking a doorway with bricks once, thank god it was to be covered, not pretty at all 🤣
keep practicing, masons and carpenters use the same skills, I know, I do both.
Awesome project. i would like to make an outdoor fireplace. It looks better than a fire pit lol.
👋Hi,.. They obviously paid a mint on this addition but it was well worth it.
The value of their home went up ten fold .
Great job & video !
Very nice job
Wear respirators and gloves when working with cement dust.
Correct. You’re at risk for pneumoconiosis, an irreversible, progressive, fatal restrictive lung disease when you inhale fine particles such as cement dust.
Lol relax it's not that big of a deal unless you do this daily. Have you ever worked a day in your life?
Love this, what a great idea. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
@@JenWoodhouse1 Hey Jen, can you provide the manufacturer for the stone? For a cultured product, it looks amazing!

Also, since they filled the center with soil, when it gets wet and freezes, it will push the face out.

@@ChrisCre8tor LOL, or foolish if I messed it up haha.
Looks great.👍 Everything turned out Great.
Beautiful!
Great work!!! I love my firepit. Here in Northeast Ohio it gets a ton of use. 😀
Gorgeous!
Can I get the measurments of the fire box inside and outside, and also the top thiner part please
Looks great. Anyone near the dry concrete mix needs to wear a mask. The dust is caustic. In my area the serious pro's dig the footing several feet deep.
Thanks for the info!
that is the wetest concrete i ever saw. weakens it rebar is criticlal dont ever mix that wet
That wasn't concrete, that's slurry mix!
Love it. Going to build something similar in our backyard.
Looks amazing, Jen! I'm inspired to do some hardscaping projects this summer.
Love love love this project, it turned out so beautiful.
Thanks Amy! ♥️
excellent work.
Amazing 🤩
Nice!
Amazing!
Beautiful
Wow!! Absolutely brilliant!!... you obviously must be a good cook to make your husband happy enough to go through all that work for you !
Beautiful! I definitely want something like this one day :)
Thank you for the video. Looks amazing and will look to do the same in the fall.
"I'm always cold" LOL!
Love the fireplace, it looks amazing! We are getting a price on one, but it will be all white brick. Great video. I felt like i was watching HGTV lol
I'll take it! Thanks for the kind words!
How did your project go? What was your investment id you don't mind me asking....thanks!
