Why brick?

Bricklaying is much more than placing one brick on the other. It is a thing of beauty, and when used on a fireplace, you get something that looks beautiful and functions beautifully too. Brick fireplaces are highly heat resistant and can handle a lot of heating and cooling cycles to extreme temperatures, which is why they've been used for thousands of years as the fireplace material of choice.

Different types of bricks can be used to build fireplaces. The most common ones include fire bricks, clay bricks and concrete bricks. It's important to note that when building a fireplace, the type of bricks used will depend on the specific design and requirements of the fireplace, as well as the local building codes and regulations.


Beautiful brick fireplaces Melbourne homeowners love

Brick fireplaces don’t have to be a stereotypical idea of a tall brick chimney, with homeowners having plenty of design options when it comes to creating a fireplace. You can work with the Callea Stone Masonry team on a design that works for you, with our experts consulting on what will and won’t work. This results in a brick structure that suits the look and feel of your home while being functional and built by a team of artisans with high attention to detail.

If you’re looking for a more timeless feel in your home, you might think about using a classical design. On the other hand, there are plenty of modern alternatives, using interesting shapes and designs to change the look of your fireplace. No two brick fireplaces have to be the same, and our creative team are happy to help you to engage with your creative spirit and design something that looks great.

Enjoy your brick fireplace indoors or outdoors

Plenty of Melbourne gardens have features like a pizza oven, a barbecue or even a simple firepit. But enjoying the outdoors in cold Melbourne weather means you'll need an outdoor brick fireplace. Where an indoor brick fireplace makes your home feel more welcoming, an outdoor fireplace is a perfect spot to either gather and have a party with your friends or just have a quiet night outdoors curled up with a book.
