They cut out the space for the fireplace . Fireplaces in log homes are usually built by outside builders - we are using Stone Haven out of Denver, NC
The fireplace we have chosen will be built from this Dutch quality stone that Stone Haven makes. The style is Ledgestone in a natural blend colorstacked with dark mortar. This is a light colored stone and we chose it because of its outstanding beauty and appeal.
My understanding of the fireplace (since it is not built yet) is that we are getting a 42" Vanguard Winston woodburning fireplace with Herringbone brick. This means that some part of the structure (I think where the firebox goes in) is brick, then the rest is stone. I know that it will be installed using a dry stack application with dark mortar. This will cause the natural stone to visually "pop."
It is already framed and the insert will be installed this weekend. The stonework will begin early next week.
Should be beautiful. I will post some pics in the photo gallery as soon as I have them.
Stone Haven is providing us with an exclusive coupon that will allow new Southland Log Home customers to purchase their fireplace at a substantial discount. You can always call me (Susan) for more information about this if you are interested - 800-892-2322.
