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. The fireplace is an old model by 'Majestic'. We designed a custom blackened steel surround/hearth/mantel for it. Thanks for your interest.

      Fireplace is very interesting. Can you share details?

      Hi there. I live in the northeast and showed this to a local metal fabricator. We both wondered what the term "blackened steel meant. Also would you possibly share the thickness of the steel and the type of adhesive you used to bond surround to what I assume is a cement backing board? Thanks so much Dave B.

      Hi. Blackening or Bluing steel is a chemical process that essentially oxidizes the steel to prevent rust and darkens the steel in the process. There are many different products on the market that do this, and many steel fabricators have their favorite products and techniques. We typically use 1/8" steel plate with countersunk screws. Thanks for your interest.
