What it is, and why it matters.
A fireplace surround is the focal point of the room, and a tired one drags the whole space down. We reface with brick, natural or cultured stone, tile or limestone, rebuild hearths for safety and add features like log niches, floating mantels or built-in shelving.
In Nashville and nearby areas we update outdated fireplaces without needing to rebuild the whole firebox, while keeping the combustible clearances and hearth extension requirements that keep the project safe.
Four things done right.
Style refresh
A completely new look without a rebuild.
Safe clearances
Mantel and hearth distances measured and respected.
Strong hearths
Reinforced and finished flat and durable.
Built-ins
Niches and shelves that fit the room.

Fireplace Surrounds & Hearths: common questions
Can I paint or reface my brick fireplace?
Yes. Brick can be painted, limewashed or covered with stone or tile. We explain which works best for your brick and your budget, and what each means for future maintenance.
Does the hearth have to be a certain size?
Yes. Codes set minimum hearth extensions in front of and beside the opening. We build to those numbers so embers cannot reach the floor.
