What does fireplace installation include?

Fireplace installations include help with any of the steps involved in setting up your fireplace, from choosing your heater to installing your chimney. And fireplace repairs include all sorts of tasks, like fixing a tile, unblocking your chimney, and repairing a door hinge. The exact inclusions will depend on the type of fireplace or heater you choose, but the most common ones are:

Wood fireplace installation

Traditional fireplaces are built into your home’s structure, so the process of installing or repairing a wood fireplace or chimney is often quite involved. Your handyman will build around your fireplace unit, using timber, plasterboard, stone, bricks, and other materials to form the structure. They’ll set up a suitable chimney system based on the airflow and thermal dynamics in your building. They’ll tightly seal this to prevent smoke from coming back inside your home.

Wood heater installation

Your installer will start by positioning your hearth (usually made from brick, ceramic tile, or concrete) to provide a firm, safe base for your wood heater. Next, they’ll install your unit, connecting the flues (inside and outside, on your roof) to carry the smoke outside of your home.


Gas fireplace installation

Once you’ve chosen the best gas fireplace for your space (whether against a wall, built-in, freestanding, or inside your existing fireplace structure), your installer will help organise gas. If you don’t already have gas service to your place, they’ll arrange the connection or gas bottle delivery. Next, your fireplace installer will assemble all the parts, including the unit and flues. They’ll cut holes to place the flues through the ceiling and roof, ensuring all gaps are tightly sealed to prevent leaks and damage. Then they’ll connect up your gas and test your newly installed fireplace.

Electric fireplace installation

Your electric fireplace installer will start by plugging in and testing the fireplace to make sure it works. Then they’ll cut a wall opening to fit your fireplace. Next, they’ll connect up the power supply (you may need a licensed electrician for this step). Then it’s time to lift the fireplace unit into the wall opening before securing it into the wall studs with screws. Finally, they’ll install any decorations (like logs) that come with your fireplace and install the front glass panel.

Fireplace tiling

£100

Beckton, Greater London

15th Jun 2025

Looking for someone to please finish off this herringbone tiling in our fireplace. Started by our previous builder who left without finishing the job due to unreasonable demands for more money. I believe they have used tile adhesive on the ones laid. We would need tile adhesive to be supplied, or can buy our own if you prefer, but have all the tiles and grout needed for the job. The area needing tilling is approx 60cm x 30cm at the widest point. The total area to grout is 140cm x 80cm at the widest point. Thanks very much

He was very helpful with other jobs that I showed him whilst he was here. A very positive worker who goes the extra mile and is willing to help. I plan on using Imre again for other jobs that I have coming up.

Hang a large mirror above our fireplace

£50

Abbey Wood, Greater London

25th Mar 2025

We need a 10kg mirror (string backed) hanging above our fireplace. The fireplace is brick, and we have a selection of tools, but having your own would be preferable! We have some bolts but we aren’t sure if they’re correct for hanging something like this, so your advice is required to tell us what fixing we’d need as well. If you can provide that then great, but we’ll happily pay for you to pickup the correct fixing on your way over.

Selami was amazing!! He was so attentive and kind and really went the extra mile for us!!
