Transform Your Focal Point with CertaPro Painters® of Southern Maryland
Your fireplace mantel is the architectural heart of your living room. If it’s looking tired, stained, or simply outdated, a professional paint transformation is the fastest way to revitalize your entire space. The experts at CertaPro Painters® of Southern Maryland deliver a durable, flawless finish that ensures your mantel stands out for all the right reasons.
Current Mantel Design Trends We Master:
We specialize in achieving the most sought-after looks for your mantel, addressing the core aesthetic goals of homeowners:
Clean & Timeless: We achieve this with Crisp Semi-Gloss White. This finish creates a striking contrast against deeper wall colors or offers a seamless, cohesive look with white trim and millwork.
Bold & Dramatic: Achieved through Matte Black or Deep Charcoal. This sophisticated finish anchors the room, draws the eye, and provides a contemporary focal point.
Subtle Texture: We use Limewash or Whitewash (on Brick). This is a specialty, breathable application that softens the original color while allowing the unique texture of brick or stone to remain visible.
Elegant & Inviting: We use Satin Finish Warm Neutrals. Tones like taupe, beige, and soft gray add warmth and visual interest without overwhelming the space.
Starting with Mark, he demonstrated professionalism and timely attention to my project deadline. To the crew, they were careful and diligent. The quality of work is outstanding, and the crew were very clean. Amber communicated well and kept me updated! This company is a pleasure to work with. This was a great experience. I will definitely use this company again and refer them to friends and family.

Our Worry-Free Process: Flawless Finish Guaranteed
The longevity and beauty of a painted mantel depend entirely on meticulous preparation and the use of premium products. Our Certainty Service System® ensures every surface is handled with expert care.
The CertaPro Standard for Mantel Preparation:
Total Property Protection: We start by fully securing the area. All flooring, furniture, hearth, and surrounding wall surfaces are covered and protected with clean, new drop cloths and professional painter’s tape.
Detailed Surface Preparation (Prep Work):
Cleaning & Sanding: The mantel is thoroughly cleaned, and surfaces are scuff sanded to promote maximum paint adhesion.
Repair & Patching: Our team performs necessary light carpentry and drywall repair—filling minor dings, holes, and surface imperfections in wood and patching any cracks in plaster or drywall surrounds.
Stain-Blocking Primer: A critical step. We apply a premium, stain-blocking primer, especially on raw or darker-stained wood and porous surfaces, to prevent bleeding and ensure color uniformity.
Premium Application: We use only premium grade, durable interior paints formulated to withstand temperature fluctuations and offer a long-lasting, washable finish. Paint is applied with precision techniques (brush and spray application) to eliminate visible brush strokes and roller marks.
