One of the most interesting challenges we face is how to describe our Fireplace Mantel products. Ex., when you say “mantel”, are you referring to a mantel surround, mantelpiece, mantel shelf, fireplace shelf or fireplace mantel. Do you use an alternate spelling like mantle? Confusing to say the least!

We find ourselves digging a bit deeper to get to the crux of what the customer is looking for, as a “Mantel” can mean a Mantel Shelf (one piece above fireplace - alt. Fireplace Shelf, Mantelpiece) or Mantel Surround (shelf and legs surrounding the firebox - alt. Fireplace Mantel).

Whatever you call it, we will figure out what you are looking for and deliver the best solution for your needs.

One of the quickest and most cost effective upgrades that you can make to your home is a new fireplace facing kit combined with a wood fireplace mantel. Facing kits are precut and are made of marble, granite, travertine or slate. The kits are easily installed using construction adhesive and can be placed over existing brick, drywall or almost any substrate. Our wood fireplace mantel kits can be put together in a few minutes and slide over (and overlap) the facing kit. Once the mantel is secured to the wall, you will have completed your project!
