Concrete Fireplace Hearths Melbourne
We design and fabricate custom concrete fireplace hearths in Melbourne, built to suit your space and style, alongside custom concrete benchtops and outdoor kitchens.
Most hearths are made as lightweight pre-cast pieces, allowing us to create clean, seamless designs while achieving the look of a solid concrete form. This approach gives greater flexibility in sizing, finishes and installation.
From minimal floating hearths to full solid plinth designs, each piece is crafted in our Northcote workshop for a refined, architectural finish built to last.
Concrete Fireplace Hearth Cost Melbourne (Pricing guide)
Concrete fireplace hearths typically range from $1,200 to $2,500+, depending on the size, thickness and installation requirements.
Smaller floating hearths sit at the lower end, while larger solid plinth designs or complex installations increase the price due to additional fabrication and handling.
Every piece is custom made, so factors like edge detailing, weight, access and integration with cabinetry or flooring will influence the final cost.

Many clients choose to match their hearth with a concrete benchtop for a consistent material palette throughout the home.
Floating Concrete Fireplace Hearths
Floating concrete hearths are one of the most popular choices for modern homes, creating a clean, minimal look where the hearth appears to “float” off the wall.
This effect is achieved using concealed structural steel supports that are fixed securely into the wall framing. The concrete hearth is then fabricated with a drop edge, allowing it to wrap over and completely hide the supporting steel framework.
The result is a solid, architectural form with no visible brackets or supports.
It’s important to note that this type of installation requires structural preparation. The steel supports must be installed into the wall framing, which typically involves opening up the wall and coordinating with a builder or carpenter. Digitized Concrete does not carry out this structural work, but we can advise on requirements and work alongside your builder to ensure everything is prepared correctly.
Floating hearths are ideal for:
Contemporary and minimalist interiors
Wall-mounted or open fireplaces
Clients wanting a seamless, high-end finish
Each hearth is engineered to suit the wall type, span and weight requirements, ensuring it is both visually striking and structurally sound.
Many clients choose to pair a floating hearth with matching concrete benchtops to create a cohesive material palette throughout the home.
