Types we install
Living rooms differ chimney, no chimney, new-build stud walls, old fireplaces that need opening up—so we match the fire type to your space and what you want it to do.
If you've got a sound, lined chimney, an inset appliance can give a classic look with a modern, efficient burner.
No chimney? No problem: room-sealed appliances with external terminals offer warmth and realism without relying on a flue that isn't there.
We fit contemporary landscape styles for minimalist rooms, traditional coals for period homes, and glass-fronted models for higher efficiency.
We plan bracket points, clearances for shelves and TVs, and ensure hearths are level so surrounds and trims sit square. Media options, such as logs, pebbles, or coals, are tuned during commissioning to achieve the perfect flame picture.
Installation day
You'll know exactly what's happening and when. We start with safe isolation, cover walkways, and set out dust control so the rest of your home stays free of debris.
- Preparation & Protection
We start with safe isolation, cover walkways, and set out dust control so the rest of your home stays free of debris. - Precision Installation
Openings are cut or adjusted with attention to lintel support; we dry-fit the surround and trim to confirm sight lines from your main seating. - Testing & Commissioning
We carry out tightness testing and, where appropriate, combustion checks. Before closing, we run the fire to stabilise the flame picture. - Handover & Demonstration
We then seal, finish, and show you basic operation—ignition, standby, safety features and cleaning the glass.
If you’re upgrading an existing appliance, we’ll remove old kit carefully and patch the opening for a crisp edge. Should we find a hidden issue, we’ll pause, explain options, and confirm any variation before continuing. If you ever need future assistance after the install, our dedicated page for fixes is here: gas fire repair.
Survey, ventilation & flues
A calm, thorough survey is where safe, durable results begin. We check the existing opening, lintels and brickwork, then look for hidden services before any cutting starts. If there’s a chimney, we assess its condition and lining; if not, we map an external route that keeps the terminal unobtrusive while respecting clearances.
We confirm minimum room volumes and any required permanent ventilation, and we’ll show you where slimline vents can sit neatly without draughts running across seating.
For homes along the A500 or near Longton, we plan realistic arrival windows and protect floors and furniture with sheets and edge guards before tools leave the van. If decorating is scheduled, we’ll coordinate so gaps are kept short and disruption is low.
Safety & compliance
Gas Safe Registered
All gas work is completed by a Gas Safe registered engineer (ID shown on arrival) and documented at handover. We follow manufacturer literature and verify clearances from surrounds and combustibles.
Proper Ventilation
Where a room requires permanent ventilation, we’ll fit low-profile grilles and place them sensibly so comfort isn’t compromised. We also explain carbon-monoxide alarm placement in plain English.
Compliance & Regulations
If you ever want to verify credentials, you can check the Gas Safe Register. Where local planning or listed-building considerations apply, we’ll highlight the need to consult Stoke-on-Trent City Council guidance.

FAQs About Gas Fire Installation
Do you work without a chimney?
Yes—room-sealed appliances are designed for homes without flues. We plan the external terminal carefully so it looks neat and meets clearances.
Can the fire sit under a TV?
Often, yes, with the correct clearances and a suitable mantle or recess. We’ll measure, check the manufacturer guidance and set expectations so heat doesn’t shorten your TV’s life.
What about ventilation—will my room feel draughty?
We fit low-profile grilles when required and position them sensibly. Room-sealed models don’t need room vents because they take air from outside.
Will it heat the room or is it just for looks?
Glass-fronted fires are efficient and give meaningful heat. Open-fronted models are more about ambience; we’ll set out realistic performance for your room size and insulation.
Can you coordinate with my decorator or joiner?
Absolutely. We’ll sequence cuts and dry-fits so painting or skirting follows smoothly, reducing downtime in your living room.
How do you handle older chimneys?
We assess, sweep and, if needed, line the chimney. If masonry is soft, we’ll stabilise the opening and set a robust base for the hearth.
