San Diego Fireplaces and San Diego Outdoor Fireplaces

At Schraner Masonry, we aim to provide you with an ideal spot where your family can gather around and share priceless moments. Our fireplaces – both indoor and outdoor, are attractive, durable and crafted by our highly-skilled masons.

Our indoor fireplaces attach history and style to your home interior. You may choose to have the fireplace centered in the middle of the living room and open the firebox all the way through, such that it may be viewed and used from both sides. Our skilled masons will take into account the height, width and length of your room to ensure that the fireplace is proportional in dimension to your room. This is because we recognize that it is important for the fireplace and the room to be visually balanced. Depending on the design of your home, we may also centrally locate your indoor fireplace in the overall design, in order to aid in the heating plan of the entire home.

Our outdoor fireplaces will add a classic touch, while creating a warm and magical atmosphere to your outdoor space, be it a patio, garden, backyard or poolside. Our traditional outdoor fireplace designs are built with footing, a firebrick-lined firebox, as well as a brick-lined or stone chimney. We use a range of materials including brick and sandstone, although we may also design fireplaces from volcanic pumice stone or high quality marble. Another popular material for fireplace design today is Robinson rock, which is a natural stone. We also build the hearth with matching stone, which is both rain and snow-proof, and a chimney that will effectively act as an outlet for smoke and hot gases.

One of our popular fireplace designs involves installing flat pieces of rock by hand for a custom fit, thereby producing a unique design and style which cannot be duplicated. In this design, we fix the bottom part of the fireplace at least six inches below the soil surface. Alternatively, you may opt for fire rock’s pre-engineered fireplace system which is a new provision for building fireplaces faster and more economically.

For those who are romantic at heart, the traditional fireplace which burns on wood is the obvious choice. Alternatively, you may opt for the gas-fueled fireplaces with which you will not have to worry about smoke, sparks, messy ashes or collecting wood logs for burning.
