What does fireplace installation & repair services in London 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

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 technician 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.

Restore Exposed Brick Fireplace Opening

£500

St Margarets, Greater London

11th Jun 2026

We recently removed stone cladding from a chimney breast and discovered an original fireplace behind it (see photos). We would like to restore the fireplace opening as an attractive feature and make good the exposed brickwork and surrounding area. Potential scope includes: * Inspecting the exposed fireplace and chimney breast * Assessing whether any of the exposed timber framing is structural/load-bearing * Advising whether any timber can be safely removed or must remain in place * Minor brickwork repairs and repointing where required * Cleaning and improving the appearance of the exposed brickwork * Making good the fireplace opening and surrounding chimney breast * Recommending the best cosmetic finish Important: Some vertical timber members continue into the ceiling, and we are concerned they may be structural. Before any work is undertaken, we need an experienced professional to assess whether these timbers are load-bearing and advise on what can safely be removed or altered. We are not currently looking to reinstate the fireplace as a working fireplace. The objective is a safe and attractive cosmetic restoration. Please only apply if you have experience with: * Fireplace restoration * Masonry / brickwork * Chimney breast renovations * Structural alterations in older properties
