Hi,
I am looking for ideas for the cheapest solution to putting in solid fuel fire into my mums house.
A shop suggested a fire basket and a £600 hearth.
I have attached photos.
The pipes are being removed by a gas safe engineer and I have already had the chimney tested.
We are keeping the mantle. The rest is not safe for a solid fuel fire
I have removed everything to see what's sitting underneath. The concrete from the original hearth can be seen
I put the mantle back on
What is the cheapest option to get this looking decent.
I don't really know where to begin. I will get a HETAs person to put it in but I want to know what the options are so I can source prices.
Is it a hearh, backplate and firebasket? Or more complex than that?
Thanks for any advice.
