Checking for level
Installing the Bluestone Cap
Gas logs in Progress in the Living Room
My chimney guys are back and they have a nice dry day to finish things up! So far this morning they have install the bluestone cap on top of the chimney (this sits below the pretty new fancy caps), started installing the logs for the fireplace, and started scraping the painted stucco on the chimney. I picked a paint color for the chimney (portobello). The chimney should end up a little darker and a warm grey as opposed to the yellowish/tan color it is now.
Things left to do:
-Install the Fancy Chimney Caps
-Finish scraping the chimney to get it ready for paint
-Prime and Paint the Chimney (tomorrow)
-Finish installing the gas logs in the Living Room
-Remove Crane (next week)
-Replace Fence (next week)
Things left for me to do:
-Go back on the lift this afternoon to get measurements for the King’s Post (to see if I can pick up a piece of wood this afternoon)
-Tonight my neighbor/carpenter is suppose to come by to look at the King’s Post
-Pick out a new fireplace screen for the fireplace. I found a pretty good price on a custom one from Northline Express since none of the standard size screens come close to fitting our old fireplace. We are thinking of having it fit just inside the opening.
Update:
The guys are done with the chimney and the gas logs (except for the paint)!
Installing the Chimney Pots!
