Fireplace Restoration
The Victorian Fireplace specialises in the restoration of period fireplaces within their own dedicated workshops and is able to renovate antique fireplaces from all periods from cast iron, wood, marble and slate, even tiles can usually be restored to their pristine glory!
Despite being in use for 300 years or more, surprisingly enough marble and slate are quite delicate materials and can be difficult to maintain in a pristine condition. Our skilled craftsmen will carefully clean them using non abrasive cleaning solutions to remove years/centuries of grime before carrying out any necessary repairs. Sourcing marble can be difficult but we have our own extensive stock as well as spare marble chimney pieces, so in the majority of cases we are able to match the design and colour!
Cast iron fireplaces can be sand blasted to remove dirt, extensive damage can be removed and replaced with other original spare parts or even refitted with up to date grates.
We can usually repair fireplaces that many would deem beyond repair as we hold an enormous number of spare parts from fireplaces that were either rescued or beyond repair.
If you have a much loved period fireplace that needs some tender care please feel free to contact us for free advice without any obligation!
