Our customer was building a new home and wanted to finish off the main room with a multi fuel stove in an inglenook fireplace. We met with the customer and builder on site, who was building the fireplace, and co-ordinated requirements. The customer chose an Avalon 8 Slimline, which fits beautifully in the inglenook, and produces up to 8kw of heat.
The customer is delighted with the stove and installation, and I must admit, I think it looks great!
Our customer from Dunstable Bedfordshire wanted a slightly different look to his fireplace. He wanted a grey brick slip with black riven slate hearth and dark brown solid oak mantel. He also wanted the fireplace opening to be quite tall, which we were able to do as the chimney flue went straight up. Kyle did a brilliant job, the customer is delighted, and we think this traditional looking multi fuel stove looks great in the newly completed fireplace!
One of last weeks customers wanted to remove an old gas fire, which was raised off the floor.
They wanted to have a brick finish though, and the only way to do so was to use 10mm brick slips. In opening up a fireplace you are left with a lot of cut bricks, which don't give a good finish. The ideal solution is to use brick slips. They are 10mm thick brick faces, which can be adhered to the opened fireplace like tiles. We then use a brick mortar to point between the bricks, and hey presto, it looks like full sized bricks, but only a tenth of the thickness!
In this installation the fireplace was lowered to it's original level, widened to take the stove, brick slips fitted, and a honed black slate hearth installed. The stove was an Avalon Compact 5 wood burning stoves with stainless steel handles.They wanted to have a brick finish though, and the only way to do so was to use 10mm brick slips.
