Make That Red Brick Fireplace Beautiful
Does this look familiar? 
If it does, then you”re like many people who’ve bought an older, charming colonial home in Bergen County. Along with the home (and especially if you bought it in towns with large inventories of charming colonial homes like Tenafly or Teaneck or Ridgewood) you got a red brick fireplace in the living room that you figured you’d fix in the future. An article I read in Lowes “Creative Ideas” magazine recently showed how you can transform that old red brick quickly and affordably.
Lowes has a special program for real estate agents which I’ve found to be a great help for my clients and myself. Rece
ntly there was an article in “Creative Ideas” that solved this problem. By resurfacing the existing red brick with a combination of tile and slate you create an amazing, beautiful effect immediately.
This fireplace was an old, stained, red brick unit and then the Lowes team went to work with a combination of tile and slate. You can, of course, use other tile and stone materials but the change is certainly remarkable. No structural renovations were needed to make this fireplace a modern showpiece.
