Fires
Electric fires in the Berkshire area
At Berkshire Fireplace Centre, we pride ourselves on our expertise in providing you a selection of diverse, stylish and efficient electric fires.
Electric fires can have log effect or coal effect fuel beds or, the more contemporary ones, use pebbles or even glass beads. Most electric fires incorporate 2kW heaters so the fires provide cosy warmth as well as a welcoming focal point in the room.
Some fires are designed to be installed in a traditional fire surround while others can be inset into an existing chimney breast, as a hole-in-the-wall option or form part of a media wall, to your design.
We’re happy to offer personalised guidance on selecting the ideal fire style that suits your home, all while considering your budget and requirements.

Common questions
Before you book
What areas do you cover?
We cover a 20 mile radius from Reading. The main locations we cover are Reading, Maidenhead, Henley, Ascot, Bracknell, Wokingham, Newbury, Thatcham and Basingstoke.
You've closed the showroom — how do I see anything?
We bring the showroom to you. We visit your home with detailed brochures and fireplace samples, look at the space, the chimney and the style of the house, and help you choose the design, fuel and installation that suit it. Seeing samples against your own walls and floor, in your own light, is a far better guide than a showroom.
Can I install the fireplace myself?
For safety, please use a suitably qualified installer. Gas work must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer qualified for the appliance. Solid-fuel installations must meet the relevant Building Regulations. We’re happy to arrange an installer and discuss what is needed during your free home survey.
How can I be sure that a new fireplace can be installed in my home?
After you have chosen your new fireplace we will carry out a free home visit where our experienced surveyor will check that the fireplace is suitable for your chimney, and at the same time assess the work involved in the installation. They will give you a quote for the installation work and answer any questions you have about the process.
Do you do a free survey?
Yes. Once you’ve decided what you want us to put in, we’ll carry out a technical survey to make sure everything fits and can be installed safely by our qualified Gas Safe and HETAS engineers.
