I stopped by this business to inquire about a fire mantle replacement for my home. I was greeted by Debbie, who was very knowledgeable about the work done at this facility. After a brief discussion I proceeded to make an appointment, which subsequently lead to an in home visit and measurements taken. To my knowledge, this business offers natural stone (1 year warranty) or cast stone (15 year warranty). I went with the 2nd choice. They been in business for years. After 4 weeks, I received the call that my mantle was ready for final inspection and install. Francisco & Juan Torres came to my house to install the mantle. They arrived on time ready to work. The job required demolition of the old facade and of course, new install. I can not stress enough how pleased I am with the quality of service that both Francisco & Juan delivered! They took the time to do all of the prep work, maintained a clean work area through out the immediate work area, without creating any inconveniences for me. Francisco & Juan completed the job on time while delivering exceptional work!They took the time by paying attention to every detail during the installation and custom fitted pieces to achieve the best result. I was very pleased with the outcome! My mantle looks amazing! Thank you! I highly recommend So Cal Fire Place Mantles for their quality product, and high degree of professionalism and dedication to the work that they do to ensure maximum customer satisfaction. I highly recommend them to anyone. You will not be disappointed. Thank you! read more

I am looking for a fireplace Reno, they are super quick to respond to messages and very clear. Thanks for your time!

We worked with Debbie the whole time and started the process to order a fireplace mantle when we were in escrow months ago. Once we got the keys, design expert Michael came out and helped us narrow down the design and measured our existing old fireplace and firebox, and discussed how it would look installed, and helped us pick a color and material finish. We went back and forth and finalized the drawings for a design we liked (Josephine, one of the LA Cast Stone designs, SoCal Fireplace Mantels' new parent company). We paid the deposit and signed off on the drawings and our fireplace went into the queue for manufacturing. Weeks later we got a call to see the final piece in the factory, and the next day they installed it. Francisco and Juan drove out in a big van and brought the pieces (mantel, filler block pieces, hearth). They set up a canopy and worked in the driveway and living room. They demolished the old chunky fireplace (but kindly helped us salvage much of the old marble stone tiles). They framed and drywalled and leveled and mudded the wall. Then they cleaned up the floor and installed the new hearth with cement and cement board, then attached the filler pieces to the wall. Then they set the mantel down in place and measured a bunch, took it outside and shaved parts off the back, then brought it in again to see that it fit perfectly. Then they moved it out of the way again, added a 2x4 horizontal structured brace to hold the upper part of the fireplace against the wall, then finally set the fireplace using cement and shims. Then they cleaned up everything and grouted every little joint between the pieces and between the mantel and the wall. It took these experts eight hours but they worked like clockwork to attend to every detail. The results blew us away and we couldn't be more pleased. The fireplace looks like a carved stone piece that should cost three to five times as much money. We picked a material finish that highlights the stone nature of the piece and it exudes a feeling of quality and craftsmanship. It is substantial but looks crisp and detailed. It is solid but has a certain lightness and effortlessness that we will cherish for years to come. 1000% would recommend getting their install team to do the work because they will do it right. Pleased as punch. We feel blessed to have found such a showstopper piece to replace our old frumpy downer of a fireplace. The room feels new, and once we texture and paint and then replace the floor it will feel like a zillion bucks. read more

I can't give enough praises to this business. They made everything pretty easy. We first went to their office and Joseph greeted us. He allowed us to look around and even go to the back showroom. That's where we learned that they manufactured these mantels on site. Great news so we don't have to depend on other countries, right? Then Michael from sales came to the house to measure and give advice. He's very professional and even loves dogs. He took the time to answer all my questions. After deciding that we want to go with them, we went to their office again since my husband has more construction-type questions. Michael was in the office so he explained everything again to my husband at which point I decided to change the style since now a wall has to be built. Chose the Aphrodite and I wasn't sorry. It's beautiful. Debbie who works with them in the office is very good in communicating via text and phone calls. Francisco and crew (3 ppl) came to the house for installation. They know what they're doing. They set-up a pop up tent in the front yard and brought out all their tools and materials. They had to custom fit the pieces and it was done perfectly in my opinion. There was never a time when I was worried about my purchase. Satisfied from start to finish. I highly recommend. They don't do fireplaces, just the mantels so keep that in mind. read more

Highly recommend for fireplace installs. read more

We are extremely satisfied with how everything went with SoCal Mantels from start to end. I called to make an appointment, Joseph arrived on time and provided a thorough explanation and estimate. The production started immediately once we agreed to the design and install was scheduled soon after that. Joseph, Debbie and the installers were all so professional and on top of things. We definitely paid more than we expected for a mantle since we were initially thinking about doing wood. But we are soooo happy we went with stone and the end result was perfection. WE could not have been happier. Thank you SoCal Fireplace Mantels! We will be enjoying our mantel this Christmas! read more

Fireplace remodel was completed in two days which included demo of the old rock facade, replacement/tape/finish of drywall and install of new hearth/legs/mantel. We are extremely happy with the results, Joseph was great to with from quote to finish. Installer Francisco and his helper did a wonderful job and left the area very clean, they have impeccable craftsmanship, are hard working and take pride in their work. Their prices vary depending on the design you choose, but are all very reasonable considering the amount of labor involved. I definitely recommend SoCal Fireplace and Mantels for your remodel/upgrade to your existing fireplace. read more

We are so very pleased with our fireplace's new look. The end result exceeded our expectations and we love how it all worked out. Before picture is with the brick. The fireplace took up too much of the room and wall. Now our fireplace is very sleek and elegant. SoCal was very easy to work with designing the new mantel. The workers were respectful of our home and maintained the ruble and cleaned up nicely. read more

I can't say enough good things about SoCal Fireplace Mantels. Michael was patient and took his time explaining our options. We went with one of their largest model- Goliath. The install was 3-4 weeks after we signed and it took about 6 hours. Last week our fireplace was installed and it has transformed our living room. It is the first thing you see when you walk into our home (picture shows the view from entryway) and the "Ooh's and Ahh's" we hear from family and friends prove how beautiful and elegant it is. Thank you to Michael, the clean and courteous install crew, and the office staff we dealt with over the phone. We are so happy and pleased with our fireplace and highly recommend you to all Yelpers. read more

*SIMPLY THE BEST* If only I had more fireplaces in my house, I would have done more. This has been by far, the best experience out of all the 20 things which we changed in our new house. From start to finish was a pleasure, with no hiccups, excuses or delays. We visited their showroom and straight away saw multiple options for the type of fireplace we wanted. Joseph was super helpful and efficient. He came to our house and measured up, gave us a quote on the spot and we agreed immediately. Super reasonable prices and timeline, it was all very quick and efficient. We needed to get this done ASAP before our move-in day, and SoCal Fireplace Mantels delivered above and beyond our expectations. Joseph helped us design the perfect Mantlepiece and also provided us with three custom colours from which to choose from after the grey stone we had seen in a sample hadn't quite hit the mark. Debbie and all the members of staff here were a joy to deal with, extremely nice and professional, courteous and honest. The installers did an absolute beautiful job and went above and beyond to tweak certain things for it to look even more gorgeous. I honestly, wished everyone we dealt with was this amazing. We are so happy with our new Fireplace/Mantlepiece. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to change their Mantlepiece. We will find a reason to do business with them again. To all future customers: you are in very good hands! read more

We can't thank this company enough. Their work was phenomenal. As you can see from the pictures, everything was spot on. From the carvings, to the color of the stone... it was everything my family and I had requested upon. This company was a pleasure to work with because they were organized, honest, and the workers were trustworthy. They did not leave UNTIL they finished every detail of their job, even if it meant staying past 9:00 pm!!!!!!! Not to mention that they were affordable and worked with our budget as well. Thank you for making our house one more detail beautiful. I highly recommend working with this company for a fireplace remodel. read more

First and foremost, Socal Fireplace mantels exceeded our expectations. After trying to contact many other companies and not having any success, we turned to Yelp. Our journey with Socal started by calling them and that's when Debbie answered our call. She was really nice, and scheduled our appointment with Joseph. Joseph showed up to our consultation appointment on time. He was very detailed in explaining every step of their process, the materials they use, and answered all the questions we threw his way. They are a family operated business and that's what's great about them. You get great personalized service and amazing quality without breaking the bank too much. Their install crew is top notch. They did a great job of covering up our new floors and sectional. During demolition they even added cushioned quilts on top of the covered floors in case anything fell. They work fast and have a vey efficient process. If you're looking to update your mantel, you must give this company a chance to earn your business. Joseph is super patient, and always makes himself available to answer questions or concerns. Too bad I only have 1 fireplace. It was a pleasure working with them. read more

SoCal Fireplace was the first company I called, normally I will get three quotes to compare the prices, quality and services, but, when Joseph came to my house, I knew that's it and turned out I was right. Joseph was very professional and helpfully. He took the project personally. First, I wasn't going to get the gate, he searched website try to find a gloss door that fit my fireplace box which he doesn't make money, I buy directly myself, then I decided to change the gate, he came to my house again to measure it, help me choose the color and style. At 9 PM, I text him I changed my mind on the style. No problem! He was very patient with me. The whole process started before the New Years and he was on vacation out of country, he would answer my email within a few hours to answer my questions and concern. At the same time, I was changing the floor to tiles and I would like to have the hearth in the same level as the floor, he would work with my schedule to get installed before the tiles. The installation guys did a great job. I was amazed by how they tried to keep everything clean. They cut in my backyard, one guy was cutting, at the same time the other guy use vacuum sucking the dust, it reminded me when I get teeth cleaned in the dentist office. By end of the day, everything is clean, neat and my fireplace is gorgeous! The whole experience was amazing! I am very happy and thankful. I highly recommended SoCal Fireplace Mantels. read more

We had a unique raised hearth from our builder and the hearth top sat back from the edge- instead of hanging over the edge. After searching for pre-cast items for years, we found SoCal Fireplace and had a custom hearth and new surround made. Joseph was so kind on the phone, met us 2 times at our house to discuss the project. The items were ready earlier than expected. Francisco and Juan, who installed the hearth and surround, were very polite, clean, precise about the installation. It looks great and cannot wait to finish the room. read more

These guys were great from beginning to end. Joseph was very professional, knowledgeable and most of all patient with my decision-making. He visited my house twice for an assessment (at my request), provided me with endless photos for ideas, invited me to the showroom to see their mantels in person and provided drawings before final approval. Communication was an A+ as well which is always appreciated when it comes to home renovation and contractor work. The installation process was smooth, clean and professional. We couldn't be happier with our new mantel. read more

We were having a difficult time finding a mantel that would work for our fireplace, because of the unique configuration of our family room. The fireplace is double-sided, so that it was visible from both the living room and family room. Plus, there are openings on either side of the fireplace, allowing you to see from one room to the other. Lastly, in the family room, there are cubbyholes on either side of the fireplace, which we use for the TV on one side, and the sound system on the other, and we needed to run multiple cables from one side to the other. I have uploaded a photo of the completed mantel (at Christmas time), to show the difficult situation. We called SoCal Fireplace because their website showed some (cast) mantels that might work for us. Joseph was very knowledgeable on the phone, and Michael came to our home to explain what would work, and what wouldn't. Michael then took photos and detailed measurements, which were apparently perfect, because the cast mantel is a perfect fit. When Francisco & his assistant arrived to do the installation, we were immediately impressed with the amount of preparation they performed prior to starting the demolition of the old fireplace. The entire pathway from the front door to the family room fireplace was completely covered. Then the fireplace area was completely enclosed in plastic sheeting to contain any dust. But there wasn't much dust, because they didn't really "demolish" the old fireplace... they carefully "disassembled" it. Running the stereo cables through the walls from one side of the fireplace to the other turned out to be more complicated than expected, and poor Francisco made two trips to Home Depot for supplies, because he wanted to make it perfect. Most contractors would have stopped work when it was "close enough," but Francisco is a perfectionist, and we are very grateful for that. Once the cabling was done, the rest of the installation went smoothly. And when they were done, they did a great job on the cleanup, including the necessary vacuuming. They were so careful and skilled in their work, that we didn't need to do any of the drywall repair or touch-up painting that we had expected to do. To summarize, we couldn't be happier with our SoCal Fireplace experience. Everyone we dealt with (Joseph on the phone, Debbie by email, Michael the design consultant, and Francisco the installer) was friendly and professional, and went out of their way to make sure we were happy with the result. read more

We love our fireplace mantels! I looked at 3 companies in total, and Joseph and SoCal Fireplace Mantels stood out from everyone else. I really wanted someone with the knowledge and expertise to help guide me toward the right style for our home. Joseph was very patient with me and offered great advice. While they were a little more expensive than the other two companies (not by much) we ultimately went with SoCal Fireplace Mantels because we loved their designs and felt confident they would deliver a great product. And they did not disappoint! Their installation team was very friendly and knowledgeable, and overall we are extremely pleased with our beautiful mantels. I highly recommend them! read more

I have wanted to get a mantel for our fireplace for several years. In our efforts to get a mantel, we visited a couple of showrooms and took a photo of our fireplace. The salespeople were not eager to work on this project for us because our fireplace was awkward and they thought it too challenging. At least once, we had an appointment set up for a company to take a look at what they could do for us with a mantel and they just never showed up. I called SoCal Fireplace Mantels and Joseph came out. We liked him right away with his professionalism and patience. Thankfully, he explained the various options as my husband and I don't always agree on style and color. They emailed us a drawing within a few days and we were on our way. It turned out amazing. I am so happy that I can't stop looking at it. The workers were efficient and ensured they covered and protected all flooring. Demo the first day and installation the second day. We now have a whole new look to our room and just in time for Christmas. read more

The BEST. Joseph went above and beyond for my boyfriend and me. My boyfriend is very detail oriented and kind of a perfectionist. Joseph met every expectation and kept a very level head when explaining how installation would go and what type of materials we needed, etc. He went extra lengths to find the right size marble slabs we needed. We could tell, without a doubt, that he was a professional and "knows his sh*t". He took a boring 1940's brick fireplace and created something beautiful that is the main attraction of our living room. I wouldn't go anywhere else! read more

Over the years I have worked with hundreds of service companies and have both good experiences and some really bad ones. But SoCal Fireplace Mantels was truly excellent. When we first moved into our place there was a mantle that was painfully ugly. We removed it and all the other crap it went with. Above the fireplace we put up one of our favorite paintings. Dumb, Dumb, Dumb. The first time we used the fireplace it scorched the frame of the painting!! So, we had to replace the frame and get a new mantle. SCFM arrived right on time every time. The Manager, Joseph, was just great. He showed us many pictures of fireplace mantles which, because we wanted something more minimal, didn't work. Then he created a drawing of what we were describing and told us they would custom make it for us!! A couple of weeks later we got pics of the mantle and a few days later they installed it. It looks just great and throughout the process, SCFM were on time, priced right, and totally professional. . read more
