Refacing Old Fireplaces

Not sure what to do with your outdated fireplace? No reason to fill up the landfill. This fireplace was originally wood with architectural elements. Our plaster treatment was applied right over the original mantel and surround.


Below is the fireplace before the plaster was applied.

Worried about dust? Our mess is minimal when we use the ZipWall. We just need enough room to set up the apparatus and all your furnishings are protected. We come out covered in dust, but not your entire home.

With a project like this, you can brag to your friends and neighbors that you've gone 'green'. This lime-based material has zero-VOC. No drywall or building materials were purchased. We've saved the client money by plastering over the existing mantel and surround, reducing demo and remodeling costs. Best of all, the mantel and surround aren't lying in a landfill.

It is nice to see green building products being used nationally and worldwide, and also the demand for such materials has risen dramatically. We should all be thinking of our planet Earth in any way we can. Just look at the auto industries, boom trucks, bucket trucks, and even crane trucks are going green.

I admire this blog. I'm sure lots of old fireplaces can benefit from a bit of creativity and a bit of hardwork in creating a fireplace that has the homely and elegant feel of a Limestone Fireplace.
