Hi Zachary T., Last week I did a very similar rustic plaster rock hearth, so I’m confident I can handle this really well. My Questions. - What are the exact dimensions, placement (floor hearth vs surround), distance to the firebox, and expected surface temperatures? - What is the existing substrate (concrete, CMU, or wood), any weight limits, and local code clearances I must respect? My Suggestions. - Build a castable refractory core for strength and heat, then apply a fiber‑reinforced plaster skin to get the rustic rock look without excess weight. - Use integral mineral pigments and a breathable, heat‑safe sealer, with discreet expansion breaks to reduce cracking. My Execution Plan. - I confirm requirements, measure on site or from drawings, and review code/clearances. - I provide quick sketches and a small texture/color sample for your approval. - I engineer the base/armature and anchoring to meet load and safety. - I form and cast the refractory core, cure fully. - I sculpt the rock geometry in layered plaster, carving strata and weathering. - I color with pigments and light washes for natural depth. - I seal with a heat‑rated, matte breathable finish. - I test for abrasion and a controlled heat cycle. - I install, level, and anchor; fill joints and touch up. - I hand over care notes and offer ongoing support.
