Before- older fireplace with a dated, rustic look
This renovation project started with an older brick fireplace. When it was originally built, it probably looked great. Not anymore. It looks dated and out of style. It doesn’t fit the homeowner’s design scheme of the 21st century.
Art patiently met with the clients to learn exactly what they were looking for. He offered options that met their needs. And then he went to work. Carefully selecting the wood. Meticulously planning his process. Game on. Measuring. Re-measuring. Jointing. Cutting. Carefully fitting. Clamping. Gluing.
First the basic frame components. Then the precise detailing. Then assembly. Need your project painted or stained? We can do that, too. This client wanted their custom fireplace surround painted.
