What it is, and why it matters.
A mantel and surround define a fireplace and often the whole room. We design the proportions, choose the species or paint finish and build a surround that respects the required clearances to the firebox and any combustible materials.
Options range from a simple floating beam mantel to a layered, paneled surround with a mirror or TV recess. We match your trim and paint and install to codes and fireplace manufacturer instructions.

Mantels and Fireplace Surrounds: common questions
How far must a mantel be from the firebox?
Clearances depend on the type of fireplace and the manufacturer. Wood-burning fireplaces need greater clearances than many gas units, and we check the requirements before designing.
Can you hang a TV above the mantel?
Often yes, with proper heat considerations and blocking for the mount. We can recess it into a paneled overmantel.
