Warming Up To The Holidays

Posted by CutsMetal on

Ahhhh, there is nothing like warming up by the fireplace when the weather gets cooler and the Holidays draw near (here's a countdown to Christmas!)!  However, if your fireplace doesn't match the decor of your room, it can be very unsettling!  Every real estate agent can tell you that an outdated fireplace can stop the sale of the home faster than Santa can come down the chimney!  So what are you to do?  This time of year everyone's finances are tight!  CutsMetal can help put the jolly back into your holidays, with an aluminum diamond plate facade to your fireplace! We even carry a variety of colored diamond plate so that you get the exact look that you want for your home! 

First, an aluminum diamond plate facade from CutsMetal is a LOT less expensive than other methods of fireplace refurbishing!  Granite, marble, and tile, all cost a lot of money to put on the face of your fireplace.  They require not only the cost of the stone or tile itself, but also the grout and adhesive to adhere it to the current face of the fireplace.  Those other methods also usually require that you hire a mason to do the job!  All of that adds up pretty quickly and can easily burst most budgets!  However, with diamond plate (sometimes called tread plate or checker plate) from CutsMetal, all you need is the diamond plate sheets and some construction adhesive to hold the sheets in place.  Best part is, it is so easy to do, that you can get professional looking results when you do it yourself (even if you are a DIY novice)!

A second benefit of using diamond plate from CutsMetal on the facade of your fireplace, is that there is a lot less mess!  With wrapping gifts, bringing in trees, and more foot traffic, the holidays tend to make your home harder to keep clean! You do NOT want to add additional mess to the holiday season!!  If you have ever been around stone or tile when it is being cut or installed, you know that the air is heavy with dust!  You don't need that!  CutsMetal diamond plate is easy to cut and install and the mess is very, VERY minimal!  An additional bonus of using diamond plate from CutsMetal, is that it is durable (won't crack or break like stone and tile) and very easy to clean!

Another great thing about having a diamond plate facade on your fireplace using checker plate from CutsMetal, is that you can enjoy your fireplace much sooner than if you had used other products for it!  When you install tile or stone, you have to wait for the heavy stone or tile to adhere to the thick layer of adhesive. Insult to injury, because tile and stone are so heavy, you usually cannot put up the whole facade in one day...you have to wait for the top rows to dry before you put on a few more layers, or the whole thing will come down from the weight! Then you have to grout the tile or stone which takes another day or two to dry!  What a hassle!  Aluminum diamond plate from CutsMetal is so lightweight, you can put up the entire facade at once without worrying about it coming down!  You can literally have your fireplace facade up within an hour or two, and then be enjoying your fireplace with a roaring fire, within a day (read the instructions on the adhesive for recommendations).  

Nothing will brighten your Holidays like being able to relax by your newly remodeled fireplace...except thoughts of how much money you saved by using aluminum diamond plate from CutsMetal.  You will increase the value of your home by updating your fireplace facade with this contemporary, classic look!  To order your diamond plate today, call our experts at 970-800-3173 or simply order online at our website or Facebook page!  CutsMetal wants to wish everyone a very Happy Holiday season!!
