Stone fireplace surrounds, hearths and mantels in marble, granite, limestone and more, made to fit.
A stone fireplace surround turns the focal point of a room into something that looks built to last. Marble gives elegance, limestone brings warmth, granite adds strength and slab porcelain gives a modern, seamless look. Surrounds, hearths, mantels and wall panels can all be fabricated in stone. They must also respect heat, clearances and the type of fireplace, whether wood, gas or electric. Homeowners in Nashville ask us to design surrounds that are beautiful and safe.
We start by looking at the fireplace type, the firebox opening and any code or manufacturer clearances to combustibles. We recommend stones that handle the heat and style you want, and we plan the pieces, such as a one-piece or multi-piece surround, a hearth and a mantel shelf. We template the opening, fabricate and polish the pieces, and install with proper adhesives and mechanical supports. We confirm that surrounds near a firebox use materials and distances that follow the fireplace maker instructions.
Wood, gas and electric units have different heat and clearance needs, and the surround must follow the maker instructions.
Many stones handle heat, but thin pieces and some engineered surfaces may not. We choose materials suited to the location.
A one-piece or multi-piece surround, a floating hearth and a mantel shelf each need different supports.
Heavy vertical stone needs secure anchoring, and we plan anchors, adhesives and expansion gaps.
