Fireplace Makeovers in Wayland, MA

JB Mohler Masonry does fireplace makeovers throughout Wayland and the rest of MetroWest — swapping dated brick for stone veneer — along with fireplace and chimney construction, repointing, and retaining walls and other landscape masonry.

One recent job in Wayland was a full fireplace makeover with thin stone veneer — a plain brick fireplace, mid-remodel, that the homeowners wanted to bring up to the level of the rest of the house. We landed on an antique granite blend of ledgestone and ashlar, which fits the traditional look common in a lot of Wayland's older homes without adding the weight or footprint of full-bed stone. It's a good option any time a fireplace feels dated but the structure underneath is solid.

Wayland's mix of colonial-era homes near the town center and newer construction closer to Route 20 and Route 27 means we see everything from historic chimney repair to first-time fireplace builds. Same crew, same estimate-through-completion process either way — no subcontractors.
