- We're refacing our existing brick fireplace and in this video we're going to kick off our family room renovation series! Renovating the fireplace will be the first major project in this space. To start, we're framing a new metal stud wall with drywall and cement board over our existing fireplace.

I've been thinking of doing almost the same thing. Super helpful!
Glad this is helpful!! We couldn’t find much on this when we were researching! Good luck
I see a new LKS video, I CLICK. ❤
🖤🖤🖤 thanks for watching!
As always top notch! Can’t wait to see the end product! Do you mind sharing room dimensions without the bay window area? Thank you!
Thank you! And yes, the room is 17’-6” wide (at the fireplace wall) and 16’-0” long
@@thelksaddressThank you!
Can I use this around my wood burning fire place? Some one told me that framing around it could be a fire hazard. Please help
Wondering the same thing
Beautiful! What did software did you use to render the 3D image?
thank you! we use Enscape to render, it works with 3D modeling programs Sketchup & Revit
Did you guys hire a camera man?
I don’t know her name, but the girl in this video is super talented way to go the time lapsed visuals along with the no-frills explanation works perfectly. I didn’t get bored, and I actually watched a video all the way through nicely done.
No camera man, just me and my husband! Thank you so much! We really appreciate hearing feedback like this
What is the reason you used metal framing instead of wood w/ cement board?
It’s a wood burning fireplace so the material around the firebox needs to be non combustible (metal)
What aspects did you find most difficult about the actual construction with these materials (after the rigors of project planning!)?
Trying to keep everything square and level! Also trying to think about the best way to attach all of the metal studs together since we are more used to working with wood studs
Back braces to do framing? hahahahahaha
Hang a plumb line!
We definitely should have
