🔥 What’s hiding behind your log burner? 🔥
At first glance, this looks like a perfectly normal fireplace chamber, ready for a new stove installation…
But on closer inspection, we discovered the previous owners had lined the chamber with plasterboard! 😳
🚫 A BIG NO-NO!
Standard plasterboard is NOT suitable for lining a fireplace chamber exposed to high temperatures.
But don’t worry… we’ve got you covered! 💪
We stripped out the unsuitable materials and replaced them with A1-rated non-combustible cement board, suitable for use inside a stove chamber when installed to the correct specifications.
✅ Old plasterboard removed
✅ Chamber made safe and suitable
✅ A1-rated cement board installed
✅ Ready for the new log burner!
🔥 It’s not just about making your fireplace look good. It’s about making sure what’s behind the stove is safe too!
