  2. The person you have to call is Manny LaSalle.
    I bought two marble fireplaces in pieces from Eddie Hibbert (Salvage place – Grand and Greene) and Manny patiently pieced together the mantels, identifying missing pieces, getting them out of his own supply, having iron pieces soddered and generally doing an excellent job. He also took a old marble “saddle” (is that the term?) on the floor and rather than having me buy a new one took the old one to a marble person, had it dipped in cleaning chemicals, cleaned and polished. He did an excellent job. He was fast, professional, reasonably priced and very meticulous. Manny does everything to do with fireplaces – rebuilding flues, installing liners, anything to do with making a fireplace work safely. I called him after that bad storm which knocked some bricks out of my chimney on the roof. The thing was in bad shape and the storm was the kiss of death. He rebuilt the thing quickly. Manny’s number is 917-292-1825.

    Good luck.
