Custom Fireplace Mantle

What is a Custom Fireplace Mantle?

A beautiful, custom fireplace is a centerpiece that will never go out of style. For those who invest in one, it becomes the main attraction of any room it’s in as people use it to hold family photos, artworks, and more recently, flat-screened televisions. Depending on the look and style of your home, creating a custom fireplace mantle can be the piece that brings your house together or, if you already have a fireplace, renovating it can be the answer to making your home nicer overall. 


Stock Mantles vs. Custom Mantles

Many of the fireplaces built in current homes follow a standardized size and pattern, which also can be found in many homeware catalogs. If you do order a stock edition, you can expect to get the mantle in three pieces that are easily put together with twist cam locks and a screwdriver. From there, all you would have to do is secure the mantle to the mounting board, which is then fastened to the wall. If you are a DIY-er and know that you aren’t looking for a unique creation that no one else has, investing in a stock mantle would be your best bet as you could get it fixed and put up yourself without much effort at all.

On the other hand, creating a custom fireplace mantle will take more time, and requires a professional. Before they can even get started on making the mantle, they will either have to lift the old mantle out or start a demo by scratch to create the entire fireplace. Once the expert does that, they will have to go over wood types and designs with you to see how they can make your vision come to life. After, the actual woodworking can begin and can take two weeks or more, depending on how complex the project is.


Can a Custom Fireplace Mantle Increase my Home’s Value?

In short: yes, it can. The smallest of aesthetic details can significantly change your house’s value. Both indoor and outdoor fireplaces have been found to increase value anywhere from $1,000 to $5,000, which means you can easily get the same amount of money back that the custom mantle costed you and not lose any of your investment.


It’s also important to note that this is going off of average prices. Depending on how complex a mantle design may be and how it is set up with the rest of the home’s aesthetic look, the right buyer could easily offer much more than you were expecting, just because they love how you styled your house!
