Fireplace Mantel Surround & Overmantel with Arch


This page features a living room enhancement project, that included the design & build of a new fireplace mantel and overmantel surround feature. I will add the completed pictures as soon as this gets prepped and painted. It is constructed using 4/4 poplar, 3/4 MDF, and pine mouldings.

If you would like to see what your fireplace could look like, please contact us or email us anytime to set up an appointment for a free, no pressure, no obligation, consultation & proposal.  From a new mantel such as this, new mouldings or a full fledged kitchen or bathroom renovation, let us help you design and build the space of your dreams.
