Take advantage of spring to clean the front of the fireplace


Now that only spring begins, it is a good time to clean the front of our fireplace and have ready for the seasons of the year.

At  South Atlantic Masonry and Concrete Contractor located in Peachtree City, Atlanta, Newnan, Sharpsburg, and Senoia, we give you this guide to efficiently clean the front of your fireplace:

Step 1. Cleaning the ashes of a chimney.
Remove the bottle from the inside of the fireplace and remove the remaining ashes with the brush from the chimney so that the debris does not reach the area you are cleaning. Then, completely vacuum the loose sand or dust. Once the debris has been completely swept, make sure the area surrounding the home has access or newspapers to protect your floors.

Step 2. Clean around a fireplace

Even if you use mild cleansers, it is mandatory to wear rubber gloves. It is likely to be rubbing a little, and your hands will thank you for wearing proper gloves. Protective goggles like goggles are also highly recommended because even dirty water can cause irritation.

Step 3: Choose a cleaning solution
The types of cleaners that use the safe place to clean the place. Start first with the fastest cleaning options and move on to any corrosive solution. If the area has been sealed, it may be enough to wash it with warm water and a cloth.

Step 4 - Eliminate persistent stains
If the home has been severely neglected and the stains are more severe, you may need to use harsher chemicals to remove the soot. Start by mixing a paste of one cup of ammonia with one pound of ground pumice and enough water so that you can APPLY the mixture directly in the difficult places. Once again, let it stand for 10 minutes, and then rub and rinse.


You may consider applying a sealant that will better protect the stone in front of your fireplace. And that's it!
