Exposing brick

Hello! We have recently bought a house that's 135 years old & wanted to expose the chimney breast which is currently plastered over. Would be great to save some money & have a mini project to be proud of but is exposing brick really that simple? Especially when the quality of the brick is unknown?

    I really like exposed brick too.Not sure how thick the plaster is. Start at the bottom with several tools. If you don't like the brick quality,you can always paint it or you can cover it with the new stone veneer that is easily applied for about 100.00 that would give it an updated look.
