Stone
Masonry
Building
with stone that have been hand selected from nature has once again become
a lost art. The ability to construct a real masonry fireplace has become
rare as well. The pictures here are of real masonry fireplaces that have
been done recently. The fireplace is a main focal point of our homes. We
believe they should not only look spectacular but be highly efficient as
well. Our high efficient wood burning units will heat up to 2400 square
feet so if or when you experience a power outage, you will at least be
able to stay warm. The units themselves are constructed of ¼” plate steel.
They have positive locking glass doors and the glass itself will withstand
1400 degree heat with the use of ceramic glass. There is a damper control
in the stack and a damper control for outside combustion air that
maximizes the burn of the wood and at the same time stops the draw and use
of inside room air for the fire. In most of the old style fireplaces room
air was drawn up the stack and wasted. Room air is drawn into a lower
grill and then heated by the firebox then forced out the upper grill by
gravity feed or in some cases a blower fan. We have an optional hot water
attachment as well for domestic water or in-floor heating. The relief

While log home construction is
our primary focus, stone masonry has worked hand in hand with all of our
log structures.
There
is over 100 years of stone masonry experience in our family. Alaska
Log Structures 2nd and 3rd generation stone masons Greg and Jason Anderson
continue a tradition of decades of quality work. We provide real and
cultured stone masonry. While there are many styles of fireplaces to
choose from, many you see now are of a generic nature.
We work on new and renovation
projects. If you want a new fireplace built from scratch, or perhaps
you have an exposed foundation block wall you would like to have covered
with a rock veneer, we will be glad to look at your project.
