Fireplaces Cleethorpes

Fireplace Fitter Cleethorpes Lincolnshire (DN35): Opening up a disused fireplace to install an open fire, a gas fire or a wood burner is an effective way to add a homely feel and some charm to any Cleethorpes home. Chilly winter evenings can become enjoyable as you sit back in front of your new fireplace listening to the crackle of a burning fire, and if your fire is used in combination with a back boiler you can even enjoy a plentiful supply of hot water too.

Before you begin chipping away at a blocked up chimney there are a few things you'll need to consider to make certain you can safely install your new fireplace. Any combustible appliance within residential homes in Cleethorpes must conform to Part J of the UK's Building Regulations, and this covers hearths, chimney breasts, flue linings and fireplaces. Planning permission may also be necessary before work commences if your home is listed or in a conservation area.

PROFESSIONAL OR DIY FIREPLACE INSTALLATION?

A straightforward restoration of a current fireplace can generally be accomplished by a skilled DIYer, however if any building work is needed there is the chance of running into structural issues that will need to be handled professionally. You may be lucky when you expose the old fireplace and find out that you need little more than a good chimney sweep and a quick clean out of the hearth to get your fire roaring once more. What you'll most likely find is a wall of crumbling, old bricks that hides issues such as a blocked chimney or a lintel that requires replacement.

Because of the severe health and fire risk issues that can be caused by an improperly fitted or renovated fireplace, it is preferable to avail yourself of the knowledge and experience of an experienced fireplace fitter and builder in Cleethorpes. Airflow has to be adequate in any room which has a fireplace; and it is a key requirement of the Building Regulations (Part J) that this is so. Dangerous carbon monoxide fumes can soon develop from a fire burning inefficiently in an inadequately ventilated space.

To safely get around any problems with air flow, vents might be fitted around the room during a fireplace installation, to ensure suitable levels of oxygen reach the fire. They may also have to fit air vents in unused chimney flues which can sometimes trap moist air and cause staining and damp spots on your chimney breast.

BEFORE WORK STARTS

A substantial amount of dirt and soot can be released from a bricked up fireplace upon opening it up for restoration. Even with dust sheets for your home furnishings, the likelihood of damage from dust and soot is still possible and it's advisable to remove your furniture and carpets before any fireplace renovation work begins. If you are carrying out a full renovation of a room or property, the fireplace ought to be opened up and worked on before any plastering or decorating is tackled. This should help to avoid any discolouring damage by soot and other chimney dirt to any previously completed work.

CONSTRUCTION AND STRUCTURAL WORK

Now that you're able to see the fireplace opening it is time to sweep and clean the hearth and chimney and work out what can be refurbished. Bringing in a proper chimney sweep to de-soot your chimney is one of the very first items on the checklist. A chimney sweep will first clean the flue and whilst doing so can inspect the condition of the chimney and provide you with advice on whether a new flue liner is needed.

Following a chimney sweeps examination it may be necessary to install a new liner and/or strengthen the chimney breast as laid down in Part J of the Building Regulations. These are jobs that need to be done by a competent craftsman with a knowledge of the relevant building regs and reliable construction skills.

In older buildings you may discover that the existing fireplace is too large for your needs, in which case a supporting concrete lintel will be needed to modify the opening. Once this has been done the next phase for your Cleethorpes fireplace installation will be to upgrade the hearth. In earlier times the hearth was sunken into the floor, but the latest regulations require it to be raised above floor level. Ready-made solutions from slate, concrete or marble are available to accomplish this, or your fireplace fitter in Cleethorpes might be able to offer you a bespoke, custom-made hearth to complement the style of your room.

STYLES OF FIREPLACE

If you visit a fireplace showroom you'll find that you are spoilt for choice with the array of different choices available to you. The advice and recommendations from your sales and installation team, which will be based on your particular requirements, will help you to choose a fireplace that is both perfect for your existing flue and chimney, as well as for your home's decor.

Whether you go with a multi-fuel stove, a wood burner or an open fireplace will depend on the overall look that you're trying to create, your current decor and in some situations, your home's age. If you have an old-fashioned inglenook fireplace, a wood burning stove can look stunning in this surrounding, and has the added benefit of reflecting heat back into the room from the stone or brick walls surrounding the stove.

Even if you haven't got a chimney in your Cleethorpes property, it is still entirely possible to install a multi-fuel stove or a wood burner. An existing chimney is not required as a stainless steel flue is fitted to the rear or top of the stove and routed through an external wall.
