The fireplace below belongs to Todd. As you are going to see one great before and after transformation.  He used an 1/8" Clear Base Glass with Starfire Base Glass on top. Then he added Red R Topper, Black Luster Topper and a few Clear Diamonds.

Do it yourself fireplace remodel made easy, or at least it seems that way.  First, the tile that was installed is not rated for fire. This tile would of popped off as soon as the fire was turned on. So do a little research before you begin. We can help in many ways, just call and ask.  It may have of seemed to be a good idea at the time, but it wasn't!

When redesigning a fireplace we suggest card board mache'. A card board mock up so you can see a basic preview of your project.

Below you can see the bottom, top and mantle in card board.

Now the rip and tear process begins!  Below we installed the extra electrical for the components and the TV. The components will be installed on the right side out of view with a black glass door. This will be installed later.

Then framing begins.

Below we now added the Durock at the fireplace opening. This is key to the whole project. Math is very important when doing these layouts!

Above and below the fireplace is 90% finished. The mantle needs to be installed and the door on the right to conceal the components needs to be installed as well. The inside of the fireplace will have 3 pieces of black galaxy granite installed. We will post these pictures of the fireplace when it is completely finished as well.Now for the glass installation. We started with a satin black paint on the back walls, until we install the granite.  Then we bulked up the base with 2" of white sand as this will save you a bunch of money! We used sand because we were pouring Starfire Base Glass in the fireplace. If we were to use a darker color of glass we would of used our crushed lava rock as a filler. When using sand, always make sure the burner is on top of the sand.

Test the burner/ location making sure the flames don't hit the walls.

Then pour the glass!

We added a few Pink Diamonds and then later added Ice Ice Ice Topper and Clear Diamonds. These products because of the way they are made appear to be melting on the inside.

The sealer that was used was a stone enhancer, not just a regular cheap sealer. When using rock you always want to see the beauty of the stone you are using.
