Project at a glance

Northumberland | Fireplaces | Planned, supplied, and installed by Fires in Stone.

The brief

The job became more involved when the existing plaster skim failed during removal, but the team prepared the wall and re-skimmed it before continuing.

The new hearth was fitted first, followed by the brick slip feature wall, giving the fireplace a more textured and characterful backdrop.

How the project came together

The existing stove was cleaned, resprayed and re-fitted, making it look much fresher within the upgraded setting.

The result is a strong example of a fireplace refresh where the appliance is retained but the surrounding materials are transformed.
