Hi there,
I need to reduce the internal width of my fireplace. I'm planning to build a course of bricks on either side which will give me the required opening width to match a new firs surround I have.
My question is what kind of bricks should I use? Can I use 'normal' bricks or should I use a specialised brick - engineering for example? It's a working fireplace for solid fuel fires.
Thanks in advance
