Make yourselves an outdoor bbq with the brick!

@johnhill9381 Ай бұрын

It looks fantastic. Dont knock yourself out, nothing is ever perfect. You do the best you can and thats it.

@user-jy6jx1cz1q Ай бұрын

The stone looks great. It was so nice seeing Nitro up and wanting some attention. Continued prayers for all.

@laruedouglas7972 Ай бұрын

Yes you can use it for a BBQ or outlining your garden beds. Fireplace back looks great. Nitro thought you were laying something down for him. Prayers for you Nitro.

Nice look, doesn’t overwhelm the space. Having a mantle will also help protect the TV from heat rising directly under it.

@rongray4847 Ай бұрын

The wall behind your wood burning stove looks really good. I think it really finishes it off. Good work guys. 👍👍❤️❤️🇨🇦

I saw you both fixed the walls behind the fireplace, it is fantastic. Beautiful colors matched the fireplace. Happy moments for you both did complied your job great!

@dianadunham6691 Ай бұрын

I think it looks great. Jim and Lydia at CajunCountryLiving would have used liquid nails to attach the rock veneer, lol.

@carolebillue357 Ай бұрын

Funny, but correct! Another super good ‘must-have’ is Liquid Nails. We gleaned this great find from Perkins Builder Brothers. DUH.....I meant to say “LEXEL” 😏 not Liquid Nails....even though I’m sure that’s a good product, too.

@terencemerritt Ай бұрын

They sure would, and theirs has turned out awesome!

@ld5714 Ай бұрын

Hi Summer and Cody. The wall looks great! Just like with laying tile and smoothing the grout. If you use a spong or rag and keep it wet, you can clean up the lines and smooth out the stone mortar. It's dry now but take a putty knife and drag along to clean up the lines and a damp rag will take of a lot of the residue and then paint it. Keep up the good work, it looks great!!

@eugenetrollip751 Ай бұрын

Looks great! So good so see animals being loved - and Cody please use a mask when you cut that stuff! You'll thank me 20 years from now! So, the reason why your tiles are not sticking on the wall is because, being concrete tiles, it absorbs the moisture from the glue, so wetting it slightly before you glue it is the correct way of doing it.

@azurewolfe8505 Ай бұрын

It turned out amazing. I love it. You can build an outdoor fireplace or an oven using all the bricks. Just alternate between all the different colors.

You both did a great job! We used a wood trim around ours that gave it a finished look. So impressed with you and Cody’s skills and attention to detail. Maybe you could use the other bricks to make a small patio to put a grill on. Love your channel!!❤️😘

While I'm watching you lay out stone, I'm looking at this same spot, just a few years ago you were sanding welds. So impressed with what you've accomplished

A suggestion’ remove flooring behind fireplace and replace with stone.

@mattgirgenti3595 Ай бұрын

@joanlenhard82 Ай бұрын

beautiful fireplace build so happy to see a mantel and soon a steaple clock on top. at Christmas i cant wait to see two stockings hanging OFF THE MANTLE. OH HOW BEAUTIFUL. YOU COULD BUILD A SMALL WOOD BOX OUT OF BRICK AMD THEN A BIGGER ONE ON THE DECK TO KEEP WOOD DRY.

@stephaniedeegan853 Ай бұрын

I think your choice of stone work looks amazing with your stove. Great job!! And your edging with mortar is just fine. Working with cement has some ruff edges always. No problem! Hand sanding can help.😊❤

@dawnmuringer9286 Ай бұрын

❤looks beautiful...you both did an amazing job...you could always make a trim to go around the sides of the brick with your mantel being thicker and or wider across the top but even if you just sand and or touch up paint that would also be beautiful!!!! Glad nitro is doing somewhat better ,I know how rough this has been on you both emotionally and financially your KZfaq framily is praying for you all❤

@cheriemcdonald57 Ай бұрын

I LOVE the stone! Very good choice. As for the edges, when in doubt trim it out. lol Use some shoe mold or rope trim and paint it a dark gray and Home Depot makes colored grout in a caulk tube. It’s with the tiling grout. You could use a gray color in between the stone and shoe mold after and regular white caulk on the side of the shoe mold and the wall. Either way even if you do nothing it still looks great!! Good job

@carolebillue357 Ай бұрын

This is along the same lines as I was thinking! Either way….it’s exactly the finish that ‘lil cook stove needed! Great job, guys!!! (Glad Nitro seems better, too.☺️)

The black brick would make a nice border around your concrete pad at the end of your steps

@bobflores Ай бұрын

Since you're going to touch-up paint anyways, a damp sponge run along the fresh mortar will remove most of the you need to get off. A grey mortar collared stain on the wall will be left behind. Now that its dry it'll take a little more work to come clean enough to paint. Those paver blocks have lots of uses in the garden and yard. Walkways, patios, boarders and edging just to name a few. Thanks for the video.

@bebetjones5551 Ай бұрын

That really dressed it up and when you add the mantle it will be the finishing touch. Stone veneer is not easy to work with but you did a great job.

@jaysmith3399 Ай бұрын

Good morning! This is not a big deal, but I've heard a lot of people calling a wood stove a fireplace. It's a place for a fire, but it's not a fireplace. A fireplace is actually built in the wall and is connected to a chimney. It usually has some sort of fireproof bottom and uses a steel grate to put the wood on. Luv your channel!!!!😘

When you have finished your siding put it as a boarder around, helps stop mice

@bernicenix5925 Ай бұрын

@susancarlin593 Ай бұрын

Looks good!! You figured it out. Wet wall. Wet stone. Wet mortar. Mortar around the edge was the best fix. Could have used a good grout sponge to clean up the edge but you got it. If you don't wet the backer board it sucks all the moister out of the mud and the stone or tile won't stick. Nice work.
