Precast stone fireplace mantels and surrounds offer a very cost effective and convenient alternative to natural stone . . . . .
After several hundred years of development, i.e., experimenting with various mixtures and
casting techniques, they have evolved to the point where many are so realistic that it's
difficult to discern them from their
natural stone
counterparts.
Precast
mantels and surrounds are available in virtually every natural stone color and fin- ish. From a design standpoint, they are avail- able in nearly every traditional style . . . . .
as well as most contemporary styles.
Much of the intricate detailing typically found in hand carved period styles
can be duplicated in
cast stone
. . . . .
as can the elaborate overmantels frequently found in old world designs.
Lighter in weight and easier to install than natural stone mantels, precast
units, nonetheless, are nearly identical in appearance and texture. It's a great
way to get a custom masonry look without the cost!
