We offer a full range of products, including electric media walls, wood burners, multifuel stoves, gas fires, electric fires, bioethanol fires, and a wide selection of fire surrounds and fireplaces, whether you want a traditional open-fire look or a sleek, contemporary design.
Is my property suitable for a wood burner or multifuel stove?
Many Torquay homes, including the Victorian terraces found in areas such as Chelston and St Marychurch, are well suited to wood burners and multifuel stoves. We carry out a free home survey before any installation to check your chimney, flue and room layout.
What if my home does not have a chimney or gas supply?
Electric fires are a great option for Torquay properties without a chimney or gas connection. Available in built-in and wall-mounted styles, they offer a realistic flame effect with no flue or gas pipework required.
Does living near the coast affect my fireplace or chimney?
Coastal properties can be more exposed to salt-laden air, which may accelerate wear on chimney pots, flashing and flue components over time. Our engineers can advise on the most suitable materials and maintenance schedule for homes near the seafront.
