Stone & Brick Fireplace Surrounds

A surround frames the fire and sets the tone for the whole room. We choose stone or brick with you, build the hearth to the right depth and height, set the facing with clean joints and finish the top with a mantel or a stone shelf, always keeping the required clearance from the firebox to combustible materials.

We remodel dated fireplaces with new stone, brick or limewash, build raised hearths, wrap the chimney breast to the ceiling and add built-in shelves and wood storage on either side. Around Nashville, many homes from the last few decades have plain brick or tile surrounds that deserve an update, and we take care that the new work meets the clearances that keep a fireplace safe.

FAQ

Common questions about fireplace surrounds

Can you cover my existing brick fireplace with stone?

Often yes. We check the surface and the clearances and tell you what is needed.

What can I use for a mantel?

Wood beams, stone slabs and precast shelves all work. We set it at a height that meets clearance rules.

Is limewash an option for brick?

Yes. Limewash softens brick and gives a timeworn look, and we apply it with care.
