Stacked Stone Fireplace with Timber Mantel

Project Overview

A light, stacked stone surround with a raised hearth and a rough-sawn timber mantel. The photos show how a modest fireplace wall becomes the focal point of a bright living room.

Fireplace surrounds must respect the clearances listed by the fireplace or insert manufacturer, especially around combustible mantels.

What the Photos Show

Key details:

  • Stacked stone running full height to the ceiling
  • Raised stone hearth with a smooth top
  • Timber mantel set into the stone
  • Light color palette that keeps the room bright

How This Type of Work Is Done

01

Clearance check

Mantel height and stone layout are confirmed against the unit's installation manual.

02

Hearth and surround

The hearth is set first, then the stone rises around the firebox.

03

Mantel

The mantel is anchored to structure, not just to the stone face.
