Great instructions and helpful tips. There are some mistakes I know I would have made if not for the tips. I built mine by myself and it took a solid three day. Two people could do it much quicker. Best tip given, make sure the first base of stone is square and level, that deleted problems as I moved along with the build.

Company delivered on time and as promised and was very easy to work with. Haven’t started construction yet but will update when we do. So far so good…
NFNick F.Verified buyerI could not be more pleased, from delivery to the finished product. I spoke with someone at Roman Stones before delivery, who stressed the obvious importance of preparing the bed. But I took extra care and as he predicted, it was like “icing in a cake.” Instructions easy to follow. Stones arrived and were delivered via liftigate to my front stoop in Brooklyn, NYC. Looks great and survived Superstorm Henri. Very satisfied customer.

We had our first fire last night, and it was fantastic. Even my 16 year old sat there and enjoyed it without being on his phone! The entire process was fairly painless. The order arrived within 2 weeks....9 skids. I tried to bribe the delivery guy to move the skids into the driveway, but he wouldn't. Fortunately, we had rented a pallet jack. So my sons and I dragged and pushed the skids up the slight incline into our garage. The blisters were real. Buy some gloves. The actual fireplace build only took 2 days for my 2 sons and I - probably 15 hours or so. We had to bring in some muscles for the firebox capstones, and we rented a material lift for the chimney capstone (I highly recommend this as it took only about 10 minutes). The only issue we had with the build was with a couple of the fire brick...we had to chip the edge of some to fit them in. We finished it off with a self-built mantle (wife wanted a deeper one to put more stuff on it), a 16x16 deck, and 6 rocking chairs. This is a fantastic addition to the backyard. We're looking forward to extending many pool days by walking a few feet to enjoy an evening by the fire with friends and family.

I had a lot of questions and all were answered clearly and quickly. The customer service was amazing. My order arrived early and the end result is gorgeous!
MPMelissa P.Verified buyer I’m a DIY guy when doing projects around the house but admittedly not all my projects turn out well. But this fireplace kit DIY was super easy. Easy to follow directions. Stack and glue made it fast and clean. Just start out on a level foundation and you’ll have no issues. I highly recommend this kit.
