Full-Height Fireplaces

ARCHITECTURAL STATEMENTS IN PRECISION STONE

A full-height fireplace serves as the definitive focal point of a room, bridging the gap between structural necessity and fine art. At Nantucket Stone, we specialize in the engineering and installation of floor-to-ceiling stone surrounds that transform standard hearths into dramatic architectural statements. Whether your design calls for a book-matched marble masterpiece or a minimalist porcelain facade, our team ensures that every slab is perfectly aligned and secured to elevate the luxury coastal living experience.

TAILORED SOLUTIONS FOR VERTICAL STONE

Floor-to-ceiling stone requires meticulous structural planning. We use digital vein-mapping to ensure your fireplace serves as a soaring architectural focal point.

  • VERTICAL VEIN ALIGNMENT: Strategic slab placement that ensures the stone’s pattern flows upward without interruption from the hearth to the ceiling.
  • HEAT-SHIELDED FABRICATION: Engineering that accounts for thermal expansion, ensuring the stone remains secure and crack-free near high-heat sources.
  • SEAMLESS FACADES: Large-format slab applications that minimize visible joints for a modern, monolithic appearance.
  • INTEGRATED STONE MANTELS: Custom mitered mantels that appear to grow out of the fireplace wall, maintaining a clean and sophisticated profile.

PREMIUM MATERIALS FOR FIREPLACE SURROUNDS

We curate a selection of heat-resistant and visually impactful slabs designed to handle the thermal demands of a hearth while providing a stunning aesthetic:

  • NATURAL MARBLE: The ultimate choice for luxury fireplaces, allowing for sophisticated book-matching where the natural veining creates a symmetrical, mirrored work of art.
  • PERFORMANCE QUARTZITE: Offers the ethereal beauty of natural stone with exceptional heat resistance and hardness, perfect for high-traffic living areas.
  • MODERN PORCELAIN SLABS: A revolutionary option for full-height designs, providing the look of rare stone in a lightweight, heat-proof format that allows for nearly seamless vertical installations.
  • NATURAL GRANITE: Provides a powerful, grounded presence with organic textures and mineral depth that can withstand the highest temperatures with ease.
  • ENGINEERED QUARTZ: Best suited for contemporary hearth surrounds and decorative mantels, offering a wide array of consistent colors for a sleek, uniform finish.
