Another project in 2006 from Ted in PA!
The chimney was not serviceable (left photo) and Ted wanted to convert it to burn a gas fire in this bedroom fireplace. However, the alterations that would be required made gas conversion impractical, so we encouraged him to consider an electric insert. Ted settled on the Windsor Electric Fireplace Insert (photo, right) and confirms this was a practical, less expensive alternative. We're cheering Ted on with his Victorian home renovation - though we know how much he must miss the orange carpet - and hope he'll send us another picture when the room is finished!

Melissa's Fireplace
 

FireplaceMantel1.JPG

Melissa used a bronzing technique on the metal front of the Adorn gas fireplace and the cast iron surround. She laid a coordinating period style ceramic tile hearth and installed an antique wood mantel. Great job!

Caution: this type of alteration can only be done with a suitable high-temperature paint.
Electric Fireplace at the Marquee
 
7a1672720.jpg
 
The Marquee is a banquet hall near our store in Richmond, VA that is decorated in an Art Deco style. They wanted a fireplace to offer a warm and cozy area for
 
guests to gather. The owner shared his vision with us and his talented carpenters, and designed this great looking electric fireplace using one of our cast iron surrounds and cast iron mantel.

The banquet hall is enormous and can be redesigned to suit individual events so the hearth in front incorporates cleverly hidden wheels that allows the fireplace to be easily moved throughout the facility. Learn more about the Marquee by visiting their website.

"Hi Karen, My wife just loves our new fireplaces. We sit by them almost every day after dinner. I've attached some photos of the two units." (New York City brownstone homeowner who installed gas coal baskets into fireplaces with challenging chimneys)

Downsizing a New Fireplace

The dramatic mantel in this room was almost too large, and the homeowner really wanted a gas coal fire in this large fireplace. His solution was installing a cast iron fireplace surround and coordinating cast iron mantel which proportionately reduced the fireplace opening. Now the gas coal basket looks proportionate and the project turned out beautifully!
Transformation with Windsor Fireplace

Jim built this mantel for Lori from a picture, including all that great carving - how talented! They're waiting for their gas logs to arrive. Notice the fireplace tiles they got from us to complete this project, and what a great transformation this is from their original fireplace, right. Great job, Jim!

Electric Fireplace on a Boat
 

electric-fireplace-on-boat-.jpg"Hi Karen, I finally found a few minutes to get a picture of our electric fireplace we put on our boat.  We are the talk of the marina and I have given your website to several neighbors, so you may be getting some business from Chattanooga, TN!

 
We just love it and it looks fantastic on the boat.  I tried to get a shot with the flames showing, but it didn't come through."
 
Thanks again!
Darlene in Chattanooga
