My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

    Hi!


    Thank you for reaching out.


    This fireplace is designed to be recessed into a non-combustible surround. The most common installation is a wall (typically bumped out) made of concrete backer board then faced with the stone, ceramic tile, etc. of your choice.


    We hope this helps. Should you have any other questions, please feel free to reach out again!
