EXPERT ADVICE
THE EXPERTS AT LEV2 ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS REGARDING
FIREPLACE MANTLES AND MILLWORK.
CAN I INCORPORATE MY EXISTING FIREPLACE INSERT INTO A
CUSTOM BUILT-IN UNIT?
A fireplace surround, mantle or media wall unit can be designed around
your existing insert. We can design around any clearance specifications
required by manufacturers for your specific insert.
WHAT ARE THE MOST POPULAR CHOICES IN FIREPLACE STYLES
RIGHT NOW?
Most designs today trend toward simple and clean looks that are modern
but timeless at the same time. The wow factor comes from the small
details like crown molding choices below the mantle.
WHAT MATERIALS DO YOU PREFER TO WORK WITH?
When the finish is a paint, we use a combination of Panel lite
products to get the smoothest finishes possible when the paint is
applied. Certain styles of mantles like corbels and mantle support
brackets, require extra details. Those tend to be manufactured out
of a hardwood for durability in the fine details. - Lev2,

A fireplace can be both a decorative and functional feature at the same time. These creative spaces
show how a fireplace can add to a room even if it’s not the central focus of the space.
Positioned between the game
and bar area and the theatre
area, this fireplace adds
warmth to both areas. An off-center fireplace
creates a cozy ready corner
while adding warmth and
ambiance to the whole room. A linear fireplace on a side
wall set into a stone accent
becomes functional artwork in
this cozy theatre room.
