What was needed
How the surface was prepared.
The work covered the fireplace face, surround and adjoining masonry details. Surfaces were assessed and protected before controlled, low-impact cleaning removed surface deposits without aggressively eroding the brick or stone. The restored fireplace was left clean, balanced and ready to anchor the room's interior scheme.
