Refurbishing or creating a fireplace has become easier than ever and a requested must-have during home renovations! Homeowners and designers alike find that something as simple as an updated fireplace creates a unique focal point in the room geared towards their own personal design flair while adding value to a property.
The options are truly limitless with styles ranging from the most traditional brick or marble, to an ultra-modern glass mosaic, and everything in between; allowing you to create a truly unique space for you and your family.
Go Traditional
For those looking to refurbish their fireplace but keep it as traditional as possible, seeking a brick look is the best option. Usually mesh backed, they are easy to install and are the most popular. Another traditional option is to use marble, or more affordable, a marble looking tile. The larger format makes for a faster install and offers a slightly more upscale look.
