Looks to me like a wood burning fireplace with a gas log installed.
What do you all think?
Little moisture there, I'm about 75% done grinding and re-tuckpointing the chimney.
Damper looks just like the wood fireplace at the cabin.
Gas pipe coming in
The damper bracket that the handle catches on seems to be installed backwards. The only position it will stay open is 100% because it falls past vertical.
Top part ground out and ready for new mortar
Top right was my first attempt at pointing. Lol
Got a little better next time see bottom left.
Top left you can see bricks arent perfect and a little uneven from water damage.
I added a slanted cement cap on top of the existing flat crown. I think that was the majority of my issues.
Just bought this place.
Enjoy.
