Plastering a fireplace with a solid fuel stove

  • Location: Reading
  • Hired: ZIMBO'S GENERAL BUILDERS
  • Trade: Chimneys & Fireplaces
Job Description

Hi, I have ripped out a gas fire and its lining to create an opening to put a solid fuel stove in. The back and sides of the fireplace are breeze blocks which need to be plastered with heat resistant Plaster.

Also could do with help installing the limestone tiles to create a hearth.

Please reply with your ideas, a price and your availability as I would like to get this done ASAP.

Will post up a picture later on but am available now to repond to questions and queries.

Thanks

Log Burner Installation

  • Location: Reading
  • Hired: fire expert
  • Trade: Chimneys & Fireplaces
Job Description

We previosly had a gas fire which has now been removed. We would like a log burner (something like the Stovax Stockton 5) installed, to do this i thin the chimney will need opening out slightly. The Chimney breast is 1.4m wide. The inside walls of the opening we would like either plastered or lined with GRG board. I don't think plaster will hold up with the heat though.

We would also like a wooden beam that sticks out like a mantle piece, but we have not decided if we want it built in or one of these ones you can fix onto the wall - perhaps we can discuss this at a later date.
