Mason Mark McCullough helps a homeowner give her concrete fireplace a facelift. When the homeowners moved in they found a fireplace made out of concrete block without any other finish. While a wood mantle and paint has been added since then, Mark has been called in to upgrade the fireplace even more with some masonry.

This ruclips.net/user/postUgkxATHBlMJwipGgVWseuAFKvDQ_5R4_lywo unit was an easy install and turned out amazing. The dimensions were exact! I took a chance and built the wall prior to receiving the unit which arrived sooner than expected and it fit right in the space I constructed. The heat output is perfect for the space we needed and made the room exactly how we envisioned it to turn out. I am happy to answer any questions to the best of my ability. Thank you for the awesome product just in time for the holidays.
Mark looks like a mason - tough and craggy - like my old boss. Don't know why but even with all the newer folks succeeding and keeping the TOH dream alive, they will never be able to replace the legends - Tommy, Norm, Roger, Richard, Steve, and Kevin. That group of guys just had magic together!
Nice job by both of them. Mark is a good teacher, also allows the homeowner to truly get involved.
Looks 1000% better and the look in her eyes she had fun doing it. She might be looking into doing more projects like this in the future.
I wouldn't mind being her handy man
Floor-gasm.
I like Mark. He's a good teacher. Also does great work.
I love doing ledge stone and other veneers they are a blast and always look amazing if you know what you are doing
thanks for showing the finished product
Mark is the man. I always get nervous when he starts but it finishes up great. And she had natural talent back buttering those pieces. Either she's artistic or a great baker or both.
Think she has artistic flair. But she was definitely bitten by the diy bug. Just look at how her eyes shined when she smiled she enjoyed the hell out of that project.
I'd let her butter my piece if you know what I mean cause I don't.
Def a good baker. She’s a woman
I enjoy watching these shows it’s relaxing
Wow, Shelby's new host material. She's adorable
Yes she is!
Definitely dude, I didn’t listen to a word mark said after she got on screen😂
Another good job by Mark.
Wow holy crap.. that is amazing work.. these masonry videos are top notch.. the materials are awesome, looks 1000 times better
another nice product to consider is a Real Rock Veneer it is a natural stone that is sawed into a non weight product you can even get corners just like he showed in the beginning
Wow. He really remodeled that. It looks really good.
Wow. Great job!
Excellent job 👍
That's great, this will help me when I try to vaneer my exterior block chimney with river stone.
Very nice. Good job!
Fantastic
lucky husband. She's a keeper
Cool content
goddamnit shelby is beautiful and they did an awesome job on that fire place
Flannel game is strong with these 2
She is adorable and super charming!
Can I just use PL glue for the same stone over brick? Didn’t want to do to much work
Winner winner!
@@Kevin-mp5of.....when who walked all atwitter
I was wondering if there has ever been a bloopers show for this old house and then the poor girl dropped the mud on her first attempt. She did great after that.
She's gorgeous!
Some manufactured stone doesn't pull water all that great.
Shelby is just a doll.
What kind of cement you used For the stucco ?
🔥
I have been doing so much research on what’s the safest paint to use on a gas fireplace surround. My surround and hearth are black tile I want to paint them white and do a stencil pattern. I have not found anyone who gives good info I’ve seen chalk paint, latex, spray paint so I’m really not sure what to do can anyone give me some helpful tips?
Shelby is beautiful!
Can this be done over brick and mortar?
What is the make of the stone and where is it to purchase
Manufactured stone it's a peace of concrete made to look like stone
Should use bonding adhesive with stone
Why are the 45 degree miters conveniently left out of the video?
I’m doing a similar project but I have a question. Do I need that metal mesh for the scratch coat if my manufactured stone is going onto durock cement board? Thank you!
Yes you do
Cement board is a better way to go, less working and mess and even holds better
So the anchores every 12" ?
She seemed like a great student, got right in there and got her hands dirty... Nice work Mark
A little dark for my tastes but still a nice project.
I've dropped a ton of cement right on my finished hardwood floor just like she did.
The best thing to do is let it completely dry and harden and then move out.
Cute girl and the fireplace came out great i love it
What's the trick to leveling the hearth? Do you just put down a bunch of mortar and wiggle until it's level?
I’d like to know the answer to this too
@@Kevin-mp5of Makes sense, thanks. I didn't catch that from the video.
What a smoke show she is. Well done!
What's the point of stuccoing it first?
Mark. I have a situation and don't know how to address it. I have a brick fireplace and I want to mount a 65" TV above the mantel. My issue is this, I have drywall over the brick above the mantel with a large flat mirror attached to it. How do I find the meaty part of the brick(no edges or mortar) when it's behind the drywall without destroying the drywall?
What kind of nails you used for the wire??
Cronctete anchors. Dottie makes them.
My thought is: Won't the tv and sound bar get hot? I wouldn't mount a TV over the hearth
No the fire is down far enough and back far enough there is not enough heat to affect the electronics. Plus its a modern fire place built out of fire brick so it is very well insulated. They use these bricks in black smith forges and heat treating ovens. Only tge surface of the brick gets hot there is no transfer through. If it was too hot for the tv they wouldn't use the wood timber mantel
You realize the hearth is on the floor for this fireplace right? The mantle is what's above the fireplace (firebox).
Next fireplace, please show how to face the surround with marble slabs for a modern look.

She's adorable Hire Shelby Quick..
Would be really cool if they hired her to do a similar job as Kevin. Asking the questions from a novice’s perspective so the viewer can understand better. She seemed really comfortable in front of the camera.
Good videos. Wish I could say the same for the crap products you have vouched for in the past. You got me ONCE.
I think that drill need an oil change. Lol
@@Kevin-mp5of actually I have quite a few IPC certs. I do know about tools because I inspect them for a living lol. Nevertheless I stand corrected, that drill needs an oil change.
Drill sounded fine
@@Kevin-mp5of yes it does take oil. I saw it with my own eyes. You dip the drill in oil and you change the oil and done. You can also spray air freshener in the slot to make it smell good. OMG Kevin everyone knows that.
@@Kevin-mp5of I caught you off guard with that air freshener, admit it. It made you second guess your self lol. I was just pulling your chain lol.
Makes the room look like cave
take a shot every time she puts her hand on her hip.
Take a shot any time any home owner says, "sounds good! ".
Take a shot every time she says awesome

*Floor-gasm.*
Looks better but the hearth is meh. Would've looked better with granite that has some deep colors in it.
That looks nice......but I thought they were going to get stoned first.
RERUN
Safety glasses please.
She got the CRAZY eyes! 😏
😎🥃
No eye protection is a big NO NO!!
No anchors for the veneer stones? No good. This mortar can shrink and the veneer can get loose.
Lol. It’s adhered veneer. Use a polymer modified mortar and it isn’t going anywhere. How are you going to anchor it?
She fine
The TV is way too high, the correction height is suppose to be such that the center of the screen is eye level while seated. Major fail. Also, the hearth is inside the fire box the thing outside the fire box that he is calling the hearth is hearth extension.
Poor girl, fake is not good. Should have used real stone.

I wanted to trade crypto but got confused by the fluctuations in price
@@jerryhills2145 That won't bother you if you trade with a professional like Mr George hendricks
I heard his strategies are really good
Yeah
My first Investment with Mr George Hendricks aim me profits of over $24,320 US dollars and ever since then he has Been delivering
He has really made a good name for himself
Was hoping she was gonna "strip er down" instead 😉
Could have at least went with a natural thin stone veneer. Such a small amount of square footage wouldn’t have broken the bank. I wouldn’t put that fake crap on a doghouse.
Looked good I thought
Jesus. Close the aperture on the camera. This is not a good depth of field for this type of show.
hipsters gotta have their bokeh
It needs more light to keep the aperture closed
@@Yoshikaable And they should have used lighting.
