Fireplace Installation

Fireplace Installation Berkshire service

Fireplace installation in the Berkshire area

With over 25 years in the industry we offer a comprehenshive, easy and hassle free fireplace installation service.

Fitting a gas or solid fuel fireplace is not a DIY job and must be undertaken by fully qualified and registered engineers.

All the engineers from Berkshire Fireplace Centre are fully qualified for the jobs they undertake and will provide you with the peace of mind that the installation has been done professionally and in accordance with UK safety standards.

Our team from the showroom will contact you when your fireplace has arrived and arrange a convenient date for installation. We take responsibility for the entire installation and will endeavour to ensure that everything runs smoothly.

When the job is completed, you will be provided with a certificate (Gas Safe for gas fires or HETAS for solid fuel) that confirms that all regulations have been complied with and you should keep this certificate in a safe place as you will be asked to produce it if you should ever decide to sell your property.

Our fitting service is available in all areas within a 20 mile radius of Reading including Reading, Maidenhead, Henley, Ascot, Bracknell, Wokingham, Newbury, Thatcham and Basingstoke.

We regret that we are unable to install fires and fireplaces that have not been purchased from the showroom.

We cover areas within a 20 mile radius of our showroom (346-348 Oxford Road, Reading, Berkshire). The main areas within this that we cover are: Reading, Maidenhead, Henley, Ascot, Bracknell, Wokingham, Newbury, Thatcham and Basingstoke.

Unfortunately we only offer installation on fireplaces purchased through our showroom.

If you want us to install your fireplace we will first conduct a free home survey to ensure that the fire can be fitted safely.

We provide a free home visit where one of our experienced surveyors will come out to your home and check that the fireplace is suitable for your chimney and at the same time can assess the work that will be involved in the installation. They will be able to give you a quote for the installation work and answer any questions that you may have regarding the installation process.

When the installation is completed, you will be provided with either a Gas Safe certificate (for gas fires) or a HETAS certificate (for solid fuel fires) that confirms that all regulations have been followed during the installation.

What Our Customers Say About Us

From my first visit to your showroom, until the final event, your staff [Sam and Jack] have been so kind, helpful and patient. Their sense of humour has helped enormously!

G.C.Cullham - Goring-On-Thames

Best service I've ever received staff are fantastic and they gave me a great deal on a nice fireplace.

Sonney Ward - Purely-On-Thames, Berkshire

I had horrible blank protruding walls with no character. Berkshire Fireplace has lovely staff who offered me genuine advice on the right fit for my style and size of property. They kept me informed all through the purchase and are reliable workers. I bought two fires from them at an affordable rate and would commend their workmanship and customer service. Highly recommended.

Phi James - Reading, Berkshire

Today I had an electric fire installed into a Victorian fireplace. Very few around and Berkshire Fireplace Centre sourced me one and installed it today. Graham could not have been more helpful, it was not a straight forward installation but he never gave up! Cannot thank Graham and the team enough. They also have an amazing showroom in Reading displaying fires, stoves etc.Great service. Thank you.

Jennie T-D - Cookham, Maidenhead, Berkshire

Had Gazco Vogue Midi stove installed in conservatory, alongside the required gas works. Excellent job completed by Matthew and Graham (father and son team). Incredibly knowledgeable and helpful as well as being immaculately clean and tidy. Look brilliant - would highly recommend.

Richard Sara Higham - Woodley, Reading, Berkshire

Mum and I visited a few months ago and were assisted by a young gentleman (I've forgotten his name, sorry). He politely greeted us, answered some questions, and left us to to browse, before assisting us with putting in an order. He was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable and lovely. Prior to this we had also called as mum has mobility issues and we were unsure of parking, and he said we could pull up in the staff parking area. We later interacted with Sam and our fitter, Graham, and his colleague. All were lovely and we were particularly impressed and grateful when Graham picked up on my hesitancy post fitting and fed back, meaning Sam realised there had been a mistake/miscommunication with the order, and they proactively contacted us to fix.

Melanie Jones, - Earley, Reading, Berkshire

Highly recommend. Fitted our Gazco 135R electric fire with very little mess or disruption. The fitting and making good all to a high very standard. Very happy with finished job. Looks amazing.
