Evening all,
I am looking to replace the mantle and surround around our gas fireplace. I want to build an oak surround and mantle to match the doors and other woodwork.
I have had a google but cant find any guidance on what treatments are required (if any) to make it fire retardant, or what the minimum clearance should be between the fire and the surround.
Would appreciate some advice. The other woodwork is oak with a french polish finish.
Thanks in advance.
