Question:

Do you know of any manufacturers who make a chimney facade that you can slip over an unsightly metal chimney?



Answer:

We had a company on Hearth.com that did this, but the company went out of business. You can easily build a frame box around it, and then finish it with stucco, brickface, wood or siding. You must make certain the chimney sticks at least 8" to 12" out of the top, and the top cover is non-combustible cement board or metal.
