In the house I am renovating there are some quite nice Bath stone fireplaces. They are in need of some tlc and I was wondering what the best method was of cleaning them up. The stone is pretty soft so a hard wire brush is out.
There are a few chips in the edges so It might be an idea to try and chamfer them. Is this an easy job to do, what is the best tool for the job.
One of the fireplaces did have a back boiler and there is a quite large crater in the side wall where the pipes entered, is there any way of filling this hole sympathetically?
Cheers
