Absolutely, transforming a plain drywall fireplace into a stunning stone one is totally doable. Here’s how it happens:
First, we remove any tiles around your existing fireplace or fireplace hearth stone slab. Next, we attach a wire mesh to the studs behind the drywall. This mesh is then covered with a skim coat of mortar to provide a solid base. If you’ve chosen a mantel, we install that next, right before laying the stone.
Each stone piece is carefully selected and placed by hand, ensuring it matches perfectly in color, texture, shape, and size with the entire project. The finishing touches are added last, rounding out a beautifully upgraded stone fireplace.
