Make yourselves an outdoor bbq with the brick!

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!

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.

@carolebillue357 3 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.

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!!

Looks really good! I agree use the brick for an outdoor grill area.

@eugenetrollip751 3 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.

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

@billiehuskins8129 3 ай бұрын

@waynedavenport3919 3 ай бұрын

Cody u did a phenomenal job for ur first time. U guys has diffently made a beautiful home. ❤️✌️

@bobflores 3 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.

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!!❤️😘

@jaysmith3399 3 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!!!!😘

@cheriemcdonald57 3 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 3 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.☺️)

@stephaniedeegan853 3 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 3 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!!!!

Cody you made such a mess! 😮. Seriously kidding 😂 but Summer is right, your beating yourself up. As you yourself said, it's your first time doing that particular type of thing and you both did learn something, to wet both parts down. Perkins Builder Brothers use lexel, Cajun Country Living use liquid nails so you certainly went the harder option and it looks fantastic. Love the colour of the stone and it ties in very nicely with stone hearth. ❤ Prays for Nitro, he looks a bit unsteady 🙏❤️🐕 thanks for sharing

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.
