DG Fires & Fireplaces was set up in April 2008.  After 12 years working for a fireplace shop I decided I would like to 'go out on my own!'  Over the 13 years I have fitted fireplaces I have gained experience in many areas and have ensured my gas training and registration has always been up to date.  I am able to carry out many tasks including:

*  Installation and removal of fires and fireplaces

*  Annual servicing and repair/breakdowns

*  Plastering around fires and fireplaces

*  Chimney lining

*  Installation of roof flues

*  Chimney cowls fitted

*  False chimney breast construction to a plastered finish

*  Installation of gas pipe work

*  Skirting boards fixed around fireplaces

As this is my own company I do all the work myself so you are always guaranteed the personal touch.  I ensure the work I carry out is always to a very high standard.
