Fireplaces Aldeburgh

Fireplace Fitter Aldeburgh Suffolk (IP15): Re-opening up an unused fireplace or having a new one installed is a wonderful way to add a touch of character to any room in your property in Aldeburgh. Cold winter evenings can become a joy as you relax beside your new fireplace surrounded by the crackling of a burning fire, and if your fire is combined with a back boiler you can also benefit from free hot water as well.

There are a few crucial considerations you must think of before you start any work, in order to establish an efficient, attractive and safe fireplace in your property. To start with, Part J of the UK's Building Regulations will have to be adhered to in relation to the installation and construction of any hearths, chimney breasts, fireplaces and flue linings that are an integral part of a heat producing appliance in your premises in Aldeburgh. If you own a listed building you will also need to ascertain if planning permission is necessary from the local council before any work commences.

PROFESSIONAL OR DIY FIREPLACE INSTALLATION?

You may be able to do some of the work in remodeling a bricked-up fireplace if you have the skills needed, however there is always a problem in finding structural and safety problems which need to be resolved by a professional tradesperson. It may be the case that when you pull back the covering from an old fireplace to find a hidden treasure which requires nothing more than a good clean up and a check from a chimney sweep to get a roaring fire going. If you're not so lucky, you'll discover a wall of old, crumbling bricks that was concealing a litany of problems, like a broken old lintel or a stopped-up chimney.

It is normally advisable to look to the knowledge and experience of a specialist fireplace installer in Aldeburgh, due to the severe health and fire risks that can result from an incorrectly installed or renovated fireplace. Ensuring that sufficient oxygen is available for the fire to burn safely is a major part of the Building Regulations for fireplaces. Lethal carbon monoxide fumes can build up from an inefficiently burning fire in a poorly ventilated space.

To guarantee a sufficient air flow for the fire to burn safely and effectively, an experienced fireplace installation technician will consider the situation and install vents in locations around the room, or beneath the floor, thus resolving this issue. To improve airflow inside unused or blocked chimney flues, the fireplace installation team may need to install some vents to prevent moist, condensed air being trapped and causing stains and damp spots.

BEFORE WORK STARTS

Chimney breasts are notorious for the huge quantity of soot and muck that can accumulate within them, consequently when you go through the process of opening up an unused fireplace you should expect it to be a rather messy enterprise. Where feasible it is a good idea to remove woven floor coverings and furniture from the room before the commencement of any work, although a fireplace installer will bring covers for your furniture and provide a bit of protection. If you are carrying out a full restoration of a room or house, the fireplace ought to be opened up and worked on before any decoration or plastering works are undertaken. The reasoning behind this is to lower the chances of any discolouring damage to any renovation work which has previously been completed.

CONSTRUCTION & STRUCTURAL WORK

The time will come to clean and sweep the chimney and hearth and see what is fit for restoring, once the fireplace has been opened up. You now need to get in touch with your chimney sweep, if you haven't already done this, to come and look at the old fireplace and chimney. While doing cleaning and sweeping, they will be perfectly placed to evaluate the structural integrity of your flue and chimney, and propose what is required to get it back in good shape.

It could be essential to fit a new flue liner to comply with the Building Regulations, and construction may also be required to reinforce the existing chimney and breast. This work needs to be completed by a skilled craftsman who is familiar with the current Building Regulations and good construction practices.

It's possible that a concrete supporting lintel will need to be installed, if the measurements of the exposed fireplace is wider than your needs. And after that process, restoring or replacing the fireplace hearth should be the next phase of your fireplace installation in Aldeburgh. You may find your existing hearth has been set into a floor void, but to be in accordance with current Building Regulations in the UK it is required to be raised above normal floor level. There are made to measure solutions to fit pretty much any size and style of fireplace, or you can choose from a range of common sized hearths to fit in with your decor.

FIREPLACE DESIGNS AND STYLES
