720-295-7474If you already have a fireplace, it doesn’t mean that you can’t upgrade or remodel your space. Remodeling your fireplace can not only change the entire look of your space, it can also actually save you money in the long run, as well as being better for the environment. It all depends on the choices you make when you decide to remodel your fireplace. There are several things you might want to consider in your fireplace remodel.
1. Embracing Modernity with a Transitional Linear Fireplaces:
If your home has an existing and outdated fireplace and you want to make it more contemporary and modern but don’t want to go straight to the modern, long linear fireplaces because it doesn’t fit the rest of the décor- consider a transitional option. The Ortal Wildnerness and the Regency U1500 are my favorite examples of how a more contemporary shape can be integrated into older homes without changing the charm and traditional style of it. They both draw your eye to the log set and how the fire comes up through the logs naturally.
2. Opening Up Spaces with See-Through Fireplaces:
Open concept style homes are very popular right now and they create a larger idea of the home. If you are remodeling and want to open up the living, dining, and kitchen for an open concept, consider a see through or peninsula fireplace. See-through fireplaces not only add a sense of visual connectivity between rooms but also allow natural light to flow freely, making the space feel more spacious and welcoming. It’s a fantastic way to modernize your home and enhance its overall appeal.
3. Elevating Style with New Mantels and Surrounds:
If you’re looking for a style upgrade and aren’t able to change out the existing fireplace because of structural or cost reasons, consider changing the mantel and surround of your fireplace. Introducing stone or porcelain materials can add a touch of elegance and luxury to your space, making it more transitional, modern, or rustic, depending on your chosen design. A well-crafted mantel can become a striking focal point, setting the tone for your entire interior décor. We like Magra Hearth Mantels and Stoll and for Denver locals, Quarter Sawn Reclaimed Wood.
4. A Quick Fireplace Facelift Service Call:
Sometimes, all you need is a simple facelift for your fireplace is a service call and cleaning. Over time, natural gas can begin to leave a film that looks similar to water spots on a wine glass. It should be cleaned by professionals.
Updating the faceplate and interior with new materials, colors, or textures can work wonders in refreshing the overall look of your home. Additionally, scheduling a professional cleaning can make your fireplace shine, allowing its true beauty to emerge and harmonize with your chosen style. You can reach out to our service team here.
