Corner Curved Granite Hearth

Why You Need a Hearth for Your Stove

When installing a stove, it’s important to think beyond just the appliance itself. The floor underneath and the surrounding walls must be protected from heat and sparks. This is where a hearth comes in. A hearth is the sturdy base your stove sits on, ensuring safety while also creating a finished, professional look.

A popular and practical choice is a raised corner curved hearth. Lifting the stove slightly above the floor, it makes daily use easier — whether you’re loading wood, adjusting controls, or cleaning out ash. It also helps showcase the stove, turning it into a focal point of the room. Granite suits this job perfectly because it’s heat-resistant, long-lasting, and easy to maintain. Once you install it, your hearth safely supports your stove and gives you peace of mind.

Choosing Corner Curved Granite Hearth

If you plan to fit a stove into the corner of a room, a Corner Curved Granite Hearth is an excellent option. The curved design softens the lines of the installation and saves space, making it perfect for smaller rooms or awkward layouts. The polished granite finish not only looks sleek and modern but also reflects light, adding a touch of elegance to your fireplace setup.

There are different shapes to consider — curved, rectangular, square, or corner designs — so you can choose one that best matches your stove and your room’s proportions. Just remember that stoves and fireplace surrounds can be very heavy, so the hearth must be strong enough to support the weight. Granite is ideal for this purpose.

If you already have a fireplace, you may already have a hearth in place. However, fitting a stove is also a great opportunity to replace an older base. For open fires and inset stoves, joined and filled granite hearths are a reliable and attractive choice.
