Picture this...
You’ve brought a home with a real fireplace, it may even have a stove in it! You can’t wait to get the essentials (bottle of wine) unpacked and celebrate your new chapter in front of a roaring fire. But how do you know if it is even safe to light an actual fire in the middle of your new home?
Time and time again we come across poorly fitted and in some cases dangerous installations that should have been picked up on homebuyer surveys but haven’t.
If you’ve recently moved into a property that has a solid fuel appliance and have not been supplied with a compliance certificate or any paperwork stating that the chimney or appliance have been maintained, then give us a call. If its an open fire, Multi-fuel stove, wood burner, open fire back boiler, solid fuel Rayburn / AGA cooker, we can offer a safety check service that will determine if it is fit for purpose and safe to use.
Any defects will be noted and remedial recommendations explained to you on the day and if needed we can send a quote to you for the works required to bring your existing appliance up to current regulations.
After our visit you’ll know more about what appliance you have, how it should be used, how to get the best out of it and if there are any remedial repairs to do and how best to go about doing them.
