Wow man would have never known. Looked for all kinds of stone product, and nothing like that ever came up or was mentioned. Was just looking for something simple for the camp but this looks great for my sons house too! Beats mixing mud. Subscribed and liked!
I just used Evolve Stone on my "fake" fireplace. I built a chimney inside with weathered barn wood on the top that is behind the TV and for the bottom half of the wall I used Evolve for the hearth for my electric fireplace. It looks great! I work for ABC Supply and we carry this product so I get a generous discount on it so I bought 2 boxes of the Morning Aspen. Such a great product. Yours looks great!
I personally wouldn’t have left the stone off where you did the heat shield thing. Yeah I get it’s not necessarily and in theory will never be seen but it would still annoy me personally for some odd weird OCD reason. Looks wonderful though!
Just low cost extra protection. Made from sheet metal from Lowes and a little hardware! Having a heat shield allows you to get closer to the wall too for code compliance...if you are trying to stick to code.
I just called the company Evolve, and they said that it is still considered combustible material. So as long as the stove is the proper distance from the stone (combustible material) then this is cool.
I have a wood stove and we’ve always had a huge tile wall behind it. No problems. Wanting to update with this, do you think it’s safe to put on over the tile?
hi thank you for the great videos on the Fireplace install and everything it entails. What thickness hardie board you recommend. I purchased the 1/4. I'm following a lot of what you did.
@@PatriotDIY thanks man appreciate it...I saw a few sources saying the weight would cause problems or the mortar/glue etc might wet the gypsum. But then others say you can do it direct. Confusion!
Rear heatshield must be 20" higher than the top surface of the stove and 20" wider than the stove on both sides. for this uncertified woodstove installation read NFPA211 section 12.6.1 for the proper information on yur shielding
In this example the heat shield was not needed. It was just an additional precaution he chose to include. The FR stone with durarock was more than enough.
How do you finish out the exposed edge/side profile? With some having the rough texture and others having s smooth cut I'm curious how you trimmed it out. Are cut pieces noticable in the pattern as they have a smooth edge against the next piece's rough edge?
I dont think i have any cut edges on the end. I just rotated it so that the factory edge was on the outside. But the color of each stone goes all the way through so any cut edges on the outside would not be very noticeable

I used the same kit! Code on my area specified an 18" lift in my shop (garage) to keep the stove away from fumes that float on the floor.
Looking good!
Excellent looking job! Looks sharp!
Thanks!!

Ty for this video!! And the links
Nice job and the video is well done too.
You just used a finish nailer?
Did you have a any issues splitting the stone?
Good looking install! Any ideas on if I wanted to install this stone on the bottom 2 feet of a metal building (horizontal corrugated)?
I think you'd probly need to address the corrugated material first...probly mount some treated plywood then mount the stone to that
If using fire rated materials, why would you need the additional heat shield? Are the temps just that high or just extra protection? Semper Fi!!!

Haha that’s awesome. Do they make a fire rated product? If so, maybe that’s what he used, if not, he lied lol😂
@@familyguy5081 The Evolve guy said they didn't have any fire rated products. 🤷
Do you have the cement board screwed to the metal studs? Or did you screw it to the wood that you mounted between the studs?

It's fire rated , not sure how you would install over tile but I don't think there would be any safety issues
How much did the rock cost for that
hi thank you for the great videos on the Fireplace install and everything it entails. What thickness hardie board you recommend. I purchased the 1/4. I'm following a lot of what you did.
i like the sheet metal idea, any particular kind?
@@MariJani1 I used 22 ga steel for the heat shield and 1/2" Cement board
@@PatriotDIY thank you so much.
Would you think I should change them for 1/2 hardie? I do what ever this best .You purchased the metal from Lowe’s?
I end up getting the 1/2 hardie and returned the other ones. Thanks thought! Found the metal at Lowe’s also. Thanks again!
If there is a small little gap between the stone and the Hardie is that ok ?
That makes a nice-looking wall. Thanks for the how to video. Can this be installed over MDF or plywood?
Yes!
Could you put this straight to drywall without that cement board?
@@killjoyredux8361 yes
@@PatriotDIY thanks man appreciate it...I saw a few sources saying the weight would cause problems or the mortar/glue etc might wet the gypsum. But then others say you can do it direct. Confusion!
Which pattern and color of Evolve Stone is that? Looks great!
Georgetown Run Phantom Shadow
@@PatriotDIY thank you!
thank you for the video. Where did you get the heat shield?
I made it from sheet steel I bought at Lowes
I wonder how expensive that was for the job? Looks nice.
Was about $1100 for the stone, $60 for the cement board. $20 for hardware.
@@PatriotDIY Can you give us a range of cost for the stone of a per sq ft basis?
@@Michaelv1105 evolve stone was about $200 per box (14sqft)
God video.
But, please, no music!

Could you have used construction glue instead of nails?

They make corners. that overlap.
Great trigger finger discipline.
