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.

Bricks for outdoor fire pit/grill

17 years ago

I am looking to build a brick fire pit/grill.

I have a stack of old red bricks from a chimney that was removed from the house.

I am assuming they will hold up to the weather, not sure about the intense heat. Or would I build from cinder blocks then face the outside with these red bricks?
