PROFESSIONAL OR DIY FIREPLACE INSTALLATION?

If you're a competent and enthusiastic DIYer it may be quite possible to refurbish a bricked-up or blocked fireplace, but the chances of experiencing structural problems in many cases is regrettably high. It might be your good fortune when you pull back the covering from a disused fireplace to uncover a hidden treasure which requires little more than a good clean up and a check from a chimney sweep to get a roaring fire going. However, what you'll more likely find is a pile of crumbling bricks that conceals problems such as a lintel that needs replacing or a blocked up chimney.

If a fireplace is installed improperly there is not just a fire risk to your property, but there can also be associated respiratory health hazards, which is why it's best to bring in an experienced Worksop installation team for a fireplace. Airflow has to be satisfactory in any room which has a fireplace; and it's a key requirement of the Building Regulations that this is the case. If the airflow is not sufficient then it's possible that a fire will not burn efficiently and cause a build-up of carbon monoxide fumes, which can be lethal.

It could be necessary to fit airflow vents in walls and floors to allow the fire to receive adequate oxygen to burn safely and efficiently all the time. They may have to fit air vents in unused chimney flues which can sometimes trap condensing air and cause damp spots and staining to your chimney breast.

BEFORE WORK COMMENCES

Opening up an old fireplace can create huge amounts of soot and muck. Even with covers and other dust protection for your home furnishings, the risk of impairment from soot and grime is still possible and it's advisable to remove your belongings and any woven materials before any fireplace restoration work and chimney cleaning commences. If you're lucky enough to be working on a complete renovation then it ought to be one of the very first jobs to focus on before you re-plaster or decorate the walls. This should help to prevent any impairment by dirt and chimney soot to any completed renovation work.

STRUCTURAL AND CONSTRUCTION WORK

Once you've opened up your old fireplace you'll have a better idea of the work that needs to be done, and also be able to sweep the chimney and clean any parts of hearth that remains. You now need to speak to your chimney sweep, if you haven't already done this, to come and clean the old fireplace and chimney. They will be able to provide professional advice on the chimney and flue after sweeping, regarding the state of the structure of the chimney and whether you need to replace the existing flue lining.

If you need to strengthen the chimney or install a flue lining all UK Building Regulations must be adhered to. This kind of work needs to be done by a qualified tradesperson who is acquainted with the current building regulations and decent working practices.

If it is necessary to adjust the size of opening of your existing fireplace to a more suitable size for your new design, a lintel support will have to be installed. As soon as this has been completed the next phase for your Worksop fireplace installation will be to update the hearth. You might discover that the original hearth has been set into a void in the floor, but to conform to current regulations it must be raised above floor level. You can find custom-made solutions to fit virtually any size and design of fireplace, or you can select from a variety of popular sized hearths to fit in with your decor.
