My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

building a stone fireplace

22 years ago

I'm not sure if this is the correct forum to post this on, but we want to build a fireplace/grill. Our friends have one and we fell in love with it. They kind of explained to us how you do it but we still have a lot of questions. Does anyone know of a book on how to build with stone or eveb a good website? Pictures of the process step-by-step would be very helpful!
