Fireplaces Newquay

Fireplace Fitter Newquay Cornwall (TR7): Installing a new fireplace or opening up an old disused fireplace in your Newquay home is an excellent way to add charm and a homely feel to any room. Adding a multi-fuel stove or open fire for those frosty winter evenings can even prove to be more cost effective than some central heating systems, so long as you have a regular source of timber. If used in combination with a back boiler it can supply you with a plentiful supply of steaming hot water at the same time.

There are a few crucial things to consider before you start any work, if you are going to establish an attractive, safe and efficient fireplace in your property. Any work which is performed on your fireplace, chimney breast, hearth and flue lining must conform to the United Kingdom's building regs, Part J for combustible appliances. If you live in a designated conservation area or a listed building you must check with local authorities to see if planning permission is needed for installing a fireplace in your home.

PROFESSIONAL OR DIY FIREPLACE INSTALLATION?

You might be capable of doing some of the renovation work to a blocked up fireplace if you've got the skills to do so, however there is always a problem in finding safety and structural problems which need to be resolved by a professional. If you're fortunate when you expose a boarded fireplace you might find a decent hearth, lintel and chimney breast that needs little more than the services and advice of a chimney sweep to get it ready for use. What is more typical however is a jumble of crumbling brickwork that hides a stopped up flue, and needs some degree of structural modification before it can be used safely.

If fireplaces are installed incorrectly there is not just a risk of fire to your property, but there can also be health hazards, which is why it is better to bring in a specialist Newquay installation team for fireplaces. Airflow has to be sufficient in any room that a fireplace is to be installed; in fact it is a key requirement of the Building Regulations that this is so. Dangerous carbon monoxide fumes can build up from a fire burning inefficiently in a poorly ventilated space.

It could be necessary to install airflow vents in walls and floors to enable the fire to get adequate oxygen to burn effectively and safely all the time. To prevent condensed air becoming trapped in unused chimney flues and producing damp spots and staining, vents might need to be installed by the fireplace installation team to enhance the airflow.

BEFORE WORK COMMENCES

A huge amount of soot and dirt can be released from a blocked up chimney upon reopening it for renovation. It is sensible to remove any furniture, rugs and carpets from an area where you're going to expose an old fireplace, to prevent them being affected by muck, dust and soot that will be stirred up during the fireplace installation and chimney cleaning work. If you're fortunate enough to be working on a full renovation project then it should be one of the initial tasks to concentrate on before re-plastering and decorating the walls. By opening up a fireplace first you'll avoid any soot from the chimney causing discolouring damage to other parts of your restoration project, such as paint on walls or fresh plasterwork.

CONSTRUCTION AND STRUCTURAL WORK

With the fireplace uncovered, it is time to see what is in a fit state to be renovated or replaced and give the hearth and chimney a comprehensive cleaning. Contacting a proper chimney sweep to de-soot your chimney will be one of the initial things on the checklist. A chimney sweep will first clean the flue and whilst doing so will inspect the structural condition of the chimney and offer you advice on whether a new flue liner is necessary.

If it is necessary to install a new flue liner or strengthen the chimney all UK Building Regulations must be followed. A good fireplace installer and builder in Newquay will be needed to undertake this work, and will need the skills and knowledge of construction to follow all building regulations.

In buildings that are older you may discover the original fireplace is too large for your needs, in which case a concrete supporting lintel will be needed to adapt the opening. When your lintel is in position and secure you can now get on with the installation, renovation and upgrade of the fireplace hearth. If the current hearth is set into the floor you'll need to raise it above floor level to observe the latest building regulations. Pre-made options from slate, concrete or marble are available on the market to accomplish this, or your fireplace installer in Newquay might be able to offer you a bespoke, custom-made hearth to fit in with the design of your room.

STYLES AND DESIGNS OF FIREPLACE

If you check out a fireplace showroom you will find that you have lots of choice with a wide array of different options open to you. The suggestions and advice from your sales and installation team, which will be in accordance with your particular requirements, will enable you to choose a fireplace that's both perfect for your existing flue and chimney, as well as for your home's decor.

Certain houses and rooms will be more suitable for an open fireplace than a multi-fuel stove or a wood burner and vice versa. As an example, a wood burner looks fantastic set back in an inglenook fireplace, highlighting the charm and character of the stove and deflecting the heat back into the room to good effect.

A wood burner is also an effective option if you don't have a chimney breast in your Newquay property. This type of fireplace can be fitted with its own stainless steel flue that is taken through an external wall and does not need a chimney, to be installed safely.
