Poll a homeowner that had a fireplace renovation which went badly, and the root of it very nearly always turns out to lie in the sequence instead of in the trades' skill.
As a trusted source for fireplace surrounds, we make choosing a pleasure. This overview covers gas fireplace and surround. fireplace surrounds
The Right Sequence
The correct sequence runs broadly in this. The appliance comes first: the unit sets the rough opening dimension and every clearance figure and these follow. Second the rough framing — the chase or opening built to the manufacturer's figures, with gas line and venting run before the wall are conveniently open. Then the surround: a gas fireplace and surround is installed onto the prepared wall, and finally the mantel last, at whichever height the clearance requirements permit. The failure nearly always involves taking the list of order — most often a beautiful surround ordered and fitted before the firebox were chosen, which leaves a shelf positioned closer than the clearance allows and a renovation and it has to be at least partly rebuilt.
