A mantel defines the character of your fireplace. Eco Grizzly builds custom mantels from solid hardwood, reclaimed timber, natural stone, and cast concrete. Every piece is built to your dimensions, finished to your specification, and installed with concealed hardware for a clean, seamless look.

Materials and Styles

Floating beam mantels in rough-sawn or planed finishes. Traditional crown-molding mantelpieces in oak, maple, or cherry. Stone shelf mantels in limestone, granite, or marble. Cast concrete mantels in modern or industrial profiles. We match existing trim, cabinetry, or architectural details.

Our Design and Build Process

Every custom mantel starts with a site measurement and design consultation. We photograph the existing fireplace and surrounding room, discuss your style preferences and budget, and present sketches with material samples. After approval, our shop fabricates the mantel over one to two weeks. Installation takes a few hours using concealed steel brackets or French cleats that keep fasteners invisible. We protect the firebox, surround, and flooring throughout the process.

Matching Pasadena Architecture

Pasadena homes span Craftsman, Spanish Colonial Revival, Mid-Century Modern, and contemporary styles. A Craftsman home calls for a quartersawn white oak mantel with tapered columns. A Spanish Revival home benefits from a hand-hewn timber beam or carved stone shelf. We research the architectural period of your home and propose designs that honor its character while updating the fireplace for current use.

Fireplace Insert Installation & Remodel

Southern California

We started with a 3D design preview so the homeowner could see the finished look before any demolition began. After opening up the old firebox, our crew framed the new opening to spec, installed the fireplace insert, and finished with a clean custom surround. The result is an efficient, modern focal point that transformed the living room.

Electric Fireplace Remodel with Stone Slab Surround

Southern California

The homeowner wanted to transform their dated brick fireplace into a sleek, modern focal point. We demolished the existing brick surround, framed the new opening to spec, ran electrical, and installed a modern linear electric fireplace. The surround was finished with a full-height polished stone slab that runs floor to ceiling, creating a dramatic and clean look. The result is a stunning upgrade that completely transformed the living room.

Center Piece Fireplace and Chimney Remodel

Southern California

This fireplace sits in the middle of a double height great room, so it had to be right from every angle. Our crew masked the entire room and protected the floors before touching anything, then stripped the existing stone cladding back to the concrete block and brick underneath. We rebuilt the surface in new cement board, taped and prepped every seam, and set full height scaffolding so the plasterers could work the column from floor to vaulted ceiling in one continuous pass. The finish is a hand troweled Venetian plaster in a soft off white, wrapped around a see through gas firebox that opens to the seating area on both sides. The result is a single clean column that anchors the whole room.
