I want to reface an old tan brick fireplace. (Painting is not an option). Has anybody out there have a good suggestion? I was thinking about a "faux" fieldstone facia. Any comments or suggestions would be helpful. Thank you!

I am currently in the midst of refacing a stone fireplace. I have chosen cultured stone. I think you might be interested in it to. You can find out more about it at their website(culturedstone.com)
There is also a similar product called eldorado stone.
Good Luck!

Thanks for your reply. I visited the website and found a dealer in my area. I'm stopping there tonight after work! Thanks again!

I'm curious about what you thought about the cultured stone. Do you think it will work for your project?

I haven't made it over to the local supplier yet, but from what I can tell from the products on the web site, I think it will definitely fit the bill. Thanks-
