Frequently Asked Questions

Everything You Need to Know

Are all your fireplaces made of real concrete?

Yes. All our products are made from high performance glass-fiber-reinforced concrete. We do not use a cast stone material or a styrofoam core.

DreamCast mantels use both an integrally mixed colour that is made of crushed minerals, and a coloured coating to ensure consistency and performance in high-heat environments.

Yes! You can order samples online of all our colours in any texture. Colours look very different from online to your space with the shadows and lighting. We highly encourage you to see the sample in your space.

DreamCast mantels are designed to be installed in an afternoon. We have in-depth mantel installation page to help you understand the process better.

We offer installation services in our local area only. If you’d like a referral to a professional for your area just reach out to our team. We may have someone who has experience with a DreamCast mantel in our nationwide referral network.

Yes! DreamCast mantels are made of noncombustible high performance concrete that is also sealed. It can perform outdoors as well as indoors.

SIZE & CUSTOM

We are here to help you find the perfect fireplace. Whether you are searching for a full custom design, or exploring standard options we can get you there. The DreamCast workshop is able to make any design, or customize from our library of popular styles to suit your specific space and restrictions.



At DreamCast, we understand that not everyone is familiar with how fireplaces work. We want to help you understand the options and make an informed decision. The selection of your gas/wood/electric unit may affect the style choices for your mantel. We will explore the considerations for what possible clearances you may need to consider for your mantel sizing.

CUSTOMIZATION

Small changes make big impact.

If you like the look of one our standard mantel designs, but need it slightly changed - narrower, or wider or taller - we have you covered. We offer customization of our standard mantels without having to go into a full custom option. This way you can achieve that tailored look making your space unique, and where you want to spend your time.

CLEARANCE

What are they?

These are requirements by the fire appliance manufacturer or your local building code to comply with safety. Most requirements will only apply to mantels made of wood or other materials which can catch fire, but some will be specifically for non-combustibles such as concrete and stone.

Clearances that will Affect Your Design:

DEPTH

This is a big factor because it affects the visual scale of your mantel and the functionality of the mantel top. If you like to place decorative items on your mantel then you need sufficient depth. Also, a big mantel that's too shallow will not look as appealing. 

Height

The height of the mantel is important in design to keep in proportion to your ceiling height, and if you place a TV above it. Otherwise you may get a mantel too tall for the room, or insufficient space to place your TV above to still watch it comfortably.

HEARTH

If your room has a small footprint then a hearth will eat into your space. Also, if you prefer a minimalist look with the floor gliding under the mantel then the hearth will impede your design vision.

Your Wall...

Now that you've selected your fireplace appliance, whether it's wood, gas or electric we need to explore how the mantel will sit on your wall. If you are able to recess your fire appliance into the wall or if you have a bump out are critical design aspects. 

Flat Wall Vs Bump Out
Flat Wall 

If you are able to have your fireplace unit recessed into your wall and achieve a flat wall this is the best-case scenario. Then you have more options for mantel designs, and you don't need to plan as far ahead. Most mantels are either 60" or 72" wide, and depth can range up to 15" in standard styles.

Bump Out

If you must make your wall come out into the room to fit your fire appliance the dimensions of this bump out are very important. Utilizing the bump out for design purposes requires planning in advance. 

  • Too narrow and a standard mantel will not fit. You would have part of the mantel overhang the drywall. A solution would be to do a custom wrap which will increase your base price on the mantel. 

  • A deep buildout may make the mantel come too far into the room, so you will need to adjust your design to a suitable style or customize a mantel to fit.

HEARTH

mantel_category_hearth_gas_unitmantel_category_hearth_gas_unit
Hearths for gas units

Hearths are often optional and you can choose to add one for drama or to lift your mantel further up the wall for grand presence.

Some gas units will have hearth needs. Check your manual for depth requirements. A way around a hearth could be to lift your gas unit higher, but then you may need to customize your mantel to accommodate the extra height.

Pro Tip

If you're raising the whole installation taller (gas unit + mantel) will you still have room above for a TV or art? Consider your ceiling height to stay in proportion. 

Wood Fireplace Requirements

Just like gas units, each wood burning model is going to have its own unique needs, but wood-burning fireplaces are typically much more restrictive than gas appliances for clearances. In this case, you are most likely only going to be exploring non-combustible mantels – like a DreamCast model. 

Typically wood-burning fireplaces will have a hearth requirement. This makes sense as it’s to prevent sparks or any hot pieces of wood from coming into contact with your hardwood. Some high-output gas units will also require a hearth, but the requirement for wood burning is usually much deeper, up to 24″.

What if you have an existing masonry wood-burning fireplace that doesn’t have a manual? Then check with your city on any requirements they could have. Usually it’s a hearth that will be between 18″ to 24″ deep.

Height & Hearths

Is your fire appliance elevated?

If your fire appliance is installed higher up on your wall and you're considering more transitional or traditional mantel styles then a hearth will be your solution. Simply making a standard mantel taller to fit usually results in a stretched out look.

The best option to move the mantel up the wall to fit around the fireplace nicely is a hearth. Standard hearths are available at 2", or you can do custom raised hearth to the height you need.
