Custom Mantle, Color Change, And Rock Work

Custom Mantle, Color Change, And Rock Work

$3,000

This project is in a living room and was originally a natural oak and brick for the fireplace. All color for the book cases was shifted with a custom gray dye then antiqued with black. The mantle was removed and replace with a large reclaimed block and wrapped with a metal band to achieve the rustic look. Then the brick was floated with a thin rock in a dry stack manner. We also added the flagstone hearth to enjoy the fireplace during the cold months.

    Blake had some family issues that delayed the project… But once that was straightened out he was great. He delivered and installed what he promised. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him or use him again if I had another project.

    Everything about this project was a joy. Blake was easy to work with, always available to answer questions, sent me pictures of the progress of my piece along the way, and even helped move some electrical outlets on the wall where I wanted the piece! I love my new hutch, and would definitely hire Blake to make another piece of furniture in the future.

    Blake made a work of art with this table. The care he took in matching grains and colors was exceptional. I am extremely happy with the process and the result.
