    It is amazing how a fireplace can change the "feel" of a room. Great improvement!

    That looks superb. I can't get over the difference it makes in the room. It looks like an entirely different house!

    Glenn, you don’t really expect us to believe that this is the same room do ya?




    It looks stunning!
