- In this video, I will walk you through the process of how i build a stone wall for the electric fireplace and the TV on top. I love how it turned out, please enjoy and maybe you will get inspired. This may be nothing special for most of you, but for me it turned out just how I envisioned it.
Stone used: Home Depot: MS International Picasso Ledger Panel’s.
Fireplace: watch my video of unboxing and reviewing this fireplace at • Dynasty (DY-BT55) Rece...
Totally worth it.Warms up my room 17'x14' doors facing the back yard gets cold very quickly.This fireplace made a big differenceTotally worth it.
Very nice job bro!!!!! I like the brackets to secure all the pieces. You are the first video who used them. I will also when I build my insert wall. Thanks alot!!!
Bryant DORSEY thank you and good luck
Amazing job, and thanks for the tutorial. Now I have the confidence to give this a try myself.
Angel Colon good luck !
That came out very nice
Thank you.
Wow nice work! I definitely want something like this added to my new home. Thanks for showing!
Thank you.
Great job 🇮🇪
Looks fantastic, well done.
You did an awesome job. You can put a trim kit around the fireplace.
You mean trim on top of the stones around the fireplace? I dont think I will like it, i wanted that sleek look . Thanks for watching.
Excellent work, it looks great!
Great job
Thank you.
I love this
I love it
Thank you.
Thanks for the video. I am about to commence the install of my fireplace similar to yours. Appears as though the fireplace cannot be removed for any service unless the stone is removed...correct?
When your fireplace takes a crap and you need to replace it, then what? You have to break and stone and get the the fireplace then replace the whole thing again?
I’m search for what to do so I can still remove my front glass without leaving a gap above the fireplace.
Nice Job!!
Youre pleased with how the corners came out non-linear, overlapping from different directions?
Craig Scholz yes I'm it actually looks very natural
Why did you permanent mount the fireplace behind the hardy board? If you ever needed to replace the fireplace you'd have to tear down the wall again?
Trending 4 Solutions yes, but so far no issue. Fingers crossed 🤞
Im not pro but the angle on your trowel might not get all the coverage on that stone even with the backbutter....either way nice work and That feeling when you add that last piece of stone is priceless
Perhaps and did not feel smooth at all; but then again this was the first time I had worked with trowel in my life, had never used it or done anything like that :- )
Final look achieved for the win ... Looks good
The fireplace heating is does not bad for the tv?
Csuka Csaba no the heat is not an issue for the tv
I like your setup quite a bit. I've been hearing crap that mounting a tv over a fireplace without a mantel can cause damage due to rising heat. Any truth to that? I'm in the process of trying to get mantel removed from the construction of my fireplace, but they're telling me I'll have to delete the option of tv hooksup as well due to this issue.
Nicholas Lee yes and no. It depends on the idle of the fireplace. This one radiates heat to the front not top. So this works perfectly fine without the mantle
Guys do you agree that TV flushed to the wall looks better than recessed ?
Yes it does and more functional as well. With TV recessed, while it looks sharp, but you really are losing the angle viewing.
I would worry that if it is recessed and the TV develops a fault in a few years, how difficult will it be to get a tv to match the exact opening of the recess.....seems better to have it the way this guy did it - he's not limited to a size and can even get a larger or smaller tv any time he wants
Thanks for sharing. This looks great. I'm planning to do something similar very soon. I also need to build a new wall like yours since I can't reuse the existing wall due to duct work in it. I have a question for the sides of the wall. How do you cover the edge of the stones where they meet the (old) drywall? I may run into the same issue since I have a very similar layout as yours. Thanks.
tommyle2204 thanks for watching and good luck!
I really like everything about the way you built this. It looks very professional. But I have a question: is there a way to build it so that one could pull out the electric fireplace in case it stops working at some point in the future? Thank you in advance.
That is a very good observation and question. Yes, i can still remove the front glass and service it that way. However, if the entire thing needs to be taken out then No.
Beautiful Life Thanks for your reply! I've already ordered my fireplace and stone and I'm trying to figure out how to build mine to look as nice as yours. I really appreciate your video.
Good luck with your project, be patient and enjoy it. Make sure to use the angle grinder, it cuts this type of stone very nice instead of wet saw. Another thing to be VERY careful about is the distance from the floor to the bottom line of the fireplace. When i put my fire place in place and everything was ready for stones, it turned out from the flower to lower bottom of fireplace line, I needed three rows and another only 2 inches. So instead of creating that 2 inch cut stone line on top, I pushed it to the bottom by initially using shims (2 inches) on the base line. Then when i was all done, i came back to the bottom 2 inch and hat to cut each stone. It was pain. I hope you can picture what i am trying to say here. Just make sure to measure AND ALSO LEVEL each row.
Beautiful Life Oh my gosh, thanks for the additional tips! I probably would have messed that up, haha. I really appreciate it!
Does the tv need space so it can get air flowing in the back or no
There is no specific requirements, but here it does have about 3 inches of space.
Nice job but do you counter sink screws into backer board?? I do not.
trebelclef without using the counter sink bit, I forced them enough in to make sure they are flash
Did you chisel each piece on the corners or use prefab corner pieces? Looks great!! I'm doing mine now.
i bought corner pieces, do much work to chisel each piece.
Great job. My question is where do you store the components like cable box, DVD player, etc... Also, can you show how it looks like in the back? I just wanted to see how your wiring is set up. Thanks again and it looks marvelous!
Sarena, I have small coat/media closet in the back, I will do a video of that and share.
Beautiful that would be great thank you. I am preparing to do this same project
@@serenaabarca7048 I ordered a signal sender to send the signals to my televisions all over the house. A good one is pricey but completely worth not having to run wires all over or worry about unsightly electronics in the area. One cable box in my spare room sends the signal to my kitchen, Livingroom and basement TV's. These are TV's that are rarely watched at the same time. And with the new Optimum box, the one remote will change the channel in any room.
r1sabotage that sounds like something I can use I know you said it was pricey but I think it’s worth it. If you can send me info on where to find this I would be grateful thank you.
@@serenaabarca7048 i used the iogear brand www.amazon.com/IOGEAR-Range-Wireless-Matrix-GWHDMS52MB/dp/B00I2VIIIA. Just like the direct wiring there are pro and cons of this device.
good for you bro.it aint worth critiquing it.im a weekend warrior too.save that money and tell everyone that will listen that you built that sht yourself.peace
Thank you!
I would only recommend that you use an Impact Driver next time, rather than an electric drill, so you don't have to push so hard to get all your screws in place.
lol and the funny thing is i had the impact driver next to me, later i used it. Thank you :-)
Mayowa Famakinwa I agree with you!! 😅
what was total cost of this project and how much would it cost if done by a contractor ?
Sorry for the late reply, if you have all the tools the total cost should be around 1k.
Came out great man, what tv mount is that? I need a flush mount like that one for an 86"
Im curious too, what stone is that, I really like it.
I used MS International Picasso Ledger Panel’s and Corner pieces from Home Depot. Thanks for watching!
Is this fireplace with heating?
Yes it does emit heat
i looked at that brand fireplace and said No Way.. you have to build it in and then tile around it, essentially it can never come out without destroying the wall, doesnt make sense to me.
mike gag yes you are absolutely right, but I knew that going with this; so far so good 😊
Can u give the details of the tv bracket, where did u get it?
It is LG mfl 68484541 wall mount bracket
Looks great! But that background music made my ears hurt.
how much you spent for the project? how long did it takes to built?
If I estimate it, it was about 1000 and you should be able to do it in a weekend if you have all the tools.
nice video, what type of stone did you use?
Thank you for watching. I used MS International
Picasso Ledger Panel’s from Home Depot.
Melvin Stevenson ,
What is the name of the metal you are drilling at 1:27 ?
They are called fasteners, you can find them in homedepot or any hardware store.
Music too loud
What size is your fireplace? Thanks for sharing
ruclips.net/video/9ZCdVQlupUU/видео.html PLEASE watch this for details of the fireplace itself.
9:14 wtf is wrong with the music?
Chris E lol messed up in editing
May lessen the margin between 5-second viewers and subscribers if you don't subject your viewership with obnoxious music/varying volumes.
TV on top of the fireplace is a super bad idea. I don't think you can last longer than 30 minutes with you neck cranked up like that. Spending 2 weeks decking out this torture machine is beyond me...
Have no issue watching it for hours on end.
Nice Job!!
