Fireplace surround

5 years ago

What tile pattern would you call it? It’s not full herringbone - showed my tile guy the picture and he’s asking if I can give him a drawing/template.

What tile size, name and manufacturer did you use for the fireplace? I love it. Beautiful statement piece!

Hello Headers13, Firstly... Looking good! Think you have quite a bit of light!... so I would say based on the size of the room, I'd suggest Down pipe.. I love the off black and Railings but think with the black cabinets it would be too much black... Down pipe I think will be perfect with the size of the room and the dark elements already purchased... . I have grey fireplace and I wish I had gone with a charcoal but it's large. .. If any doubts get some testers... paint onto paper and stick them on the chimney breast, look at them at different times of the day, to see the change in light and what you naturally veer towards... that will tell you what to go for! ... I'd like to suggest a copper, brassy mirror to go overhead... Grey or navy with gold is really spectacular, It will be fabulous when it's finished ! ... : ))

Hi. You can paint over it. I think you could use chalk paint or probably zinsser as a primer and then paint of your choice or there are instructions to do it "properly" that I can copy a link to. Why not use one of the paint visualiser apps first though to see what you think, dulux, crown etc have them or try photoshop if you can use it. Personally if you don't like it, I'd remove the surround which hopefully should be in a few pieces and replace it with a reclaimed wooden surround of the period. You should be able to pick up one cheaply on eBay and then sell yours

Fireplace surround/hearth in small bedroom

I'm sure you've already considered if there was any possibility of making this your living room. I know I'd get much more use if the doors/balcony if it was a living room and a sofa would not encroach so far into the room as the bed does. Presuming there's no chance of a swap, for a temp solution I'd move the head of the bed to the fireplace wall and place a headboard or privacy screen/room divider etc to conceal the fireplace. You'd need something that still allows the wardrobe to function but in the short term I don't suppose it would matter if it slightly encroaches on the desk (until you've removed it) By doing this you'll make it less hazardous by covering up the tiles and will also be able to see if the lack of space at the bottom of the bed is as much of a problem as the tiles/hearth were. You can gauge how much effort/money it's worth to gain the extra inches at the foot of the bed. Good luck!

Can anyone help me please? I want to paint my fireplace surround white. The back plate and the hearth is solid marble. The surround is moulded I think.
