Jim built his fireplace kit in one weekend with simple tools and help from his grandkid.

Meet Jim. He’s an 82-year-old skeptic who built his own Fireplace Kit

Jim, an 82-year-old retired small business owner, had a vision of enhancing his back patio by adding an outdoor fireplace. With the Ashford DIY kit in hand and a deep desire to create a space for memorable family gatherings, he embarked on the journey of transforming his backyard into a tranquil oasis. Unbeknownst to him, this project would bring warmth to his outdoor area and ignite a sense of pride and achievement. He was so impressed he reached out to us to share his journey. However, Jim is not one to dive into unfamiliar projects, especially when the happiness of his family and a significant investment are at stake.

Like You, Jim Was Skeptical and had questions.

Jim was contemplating building a fireplace in his vacation home, a cherished gathering spot for his family during their vacations. With the intention of leaving the property to his loved ones, Jim aimed to enhance the vacation home for future generations to enjoy. Intrigued by the convenience and cost-effectiveness we promoted through our DIY kits, Jim approached the idea with a healthy dose of skepticism. After all, outdoor fireplaces can be expensive, and returning them is not always a simple process. To address his concerns, Jim decided to contact us directly. We promptly responded to his inquiries, addressing all of his questions and guiding him toward the most suitable product for his specific needs. Additionally, we offered Jim the opportunity to utilize our 3D mock-up service, allowing him to visualize the final outcome before making a decision.

Jim decided to take the plunge and order a DIY kit to put our kits to the test.

Once he saw the mockup, he was convinced to go ahead with the project. Upon receiving the kit, Jim was immediately impressed by the high quality and completeness of the materials. The detailed instructions provided clear and easy-to-follow guidance, making the entire process effortless. Fueled by excitement and the desire to create a meaningful gift for his family, Jim eagerly embarked on the project, without needing any special skills. With the assistance of his grandson, they dedicated a weekend to installing the new family fireplace.

After the first course was laid and level, the two men started by stacking and gluing the blocks together. Just as promised, the fireplace began to take shape. With each passing hour, their confidence grew along with their fireplace. According to Jim, “Just follow the instructions and you see the results.” This is a testament to the simplicity and user-friendly nature of our DIY kits. After a couple days work, Jim had a new outdoor centerpiece for his patio.
