Expertise, not just labour
Consult & Design with Udo
Udo Kohrmann is one of very few European-trained masonry-heater specialists in North America. Hire his expertise — for your own project, your builder, or your design.
Ways to work together
Remote consultation
A video or phone session to talk through your project, review your plans, and get expert answers on masonry heaters, fireplaces, ovens and stone.
On-site visit
Udo visits your space — Ottawa, Gatineau and the Outaouais, or farther by arrangement — to assess the site and recommend the right approach.
Design review
Send your drawings (or your builder’s plans) and Udo reviews the masonry and heater details, flagging issues before you build.
Builder & architect consult
Collaborate with Udo on the specs and sizing for a masonry heater or fireplace you’re building with your own crew.
Design packages
Get a buildable design — whether Udo builds it or your own crew does.
Fireplace design package
A concept for your fireplace: layout, stone selection, proportions and a materials direction you can build from.
Masonry heater design package
Sizing and design guidance for a masonry heater suited to your home, your heat needs and your floor plan.
Concept planning
Early-stage ideas and feasibility for a project you’re still dreaming up — before you commit to a build.
