Wood burners, flues and fireplace openings across Bridport and the surrounding villages. One tradesman, start to finish — survey, building work, install and HETAS certificate.
Bridport fireplaces
Bridport's housing stock is mostly Georgian and Victorian terraces off East Street, West Street and the roads running down to St Michael's, with a band of post-war housing out towards Bothenhampton and Allington. A large number of those older terraces had their fireplaces blocked up and plastered over in the sixties and seventies, and the chimney left capped.
That means most Bridport jobs start the same way: opening the breast back up, checking what state the flue is in, and lining it. The chimneys are typically tall, narrow and shared between properties, so a correctly sized insulated liner matters more here than raw stove output — an oversized burner on a big cold flue is the usual cause of a smoking fire in a terrace.
What we do
Supply, installation and the building work that goes with it. One trade on site, from knocking the opening out to lighting it for the first time.
Stoves supplied to suit the room and the flue — sized properly on output rather than guessed at, and covered by one warranty with the install.
Chimney liners and twin wall systems fitted, insulated and sealed, whether there's an existing chimney to work with or nothing at all.
Every installation signed off and certified, with the notice plate fitted. That's the paperwork your insurer and any future buyer will ask for.
Small or blocked openings widened to take a burner — lintels, beams, brickwork and all the building work that comes with it.
Slate, granite, stone and concrete hearths supplied and laid to the correct size and clearances for the appliance going on them.
Chambers lined in brick slips or fireboard for a clean, square finish that stands up to the heat and looks right in the room.
Anti-downdraught cowls, bird guards and rain caps fitted to the pot and made weathertight.
Most Bridport jobs are a mix of the above. Send a photo of the fireplace and you'll get a straight answer on what's involved.
