Fires and Stoves for Knutsford Homes

Knutsford and the surrounding villages including Mobberley, Mere and Ollerton have a high proportion of detached and period properties. Many of these have original chimney breasts and chimney flues that are perfectly suited to a new fire or stove installation.

If your Knutsford home has a working chimney, your options are broad. Gas fires, wood burning stoves and multifuel stoves are all possible. A pre-installation stove survey checks flue condition and gives a clear picture of what will work before any commitment is made.

Properties without a chimney, including newer builds and converted outbuildings, are well served by balanced flue gas fires and electric fires. Balanced flue models pass through the external wall with no flue required. Media wall electric fires are especially popular in open plan rooms.

Knutsford falls within Cheshire East’s smoke control area in some parts. Any solid fuel appliance must be a DEFRA approved exempt appliance. We will confirm whether your address is affected and which stoves are suitable when you visit.

Made to Measure Surrounds

Knutsford and the surrounding villages have a lot of property with original or unusual fireplace openings. If a standard off the shelf surround will not fit your chimney breast, our Osnath Works factory builds bespoke surrounds in marble, stone and wood to the exact dimensions you need.

Older farmhouses, converted barns and Victorian townhouses often present the most interesting challenges and our factory handles all of them. Bring photographs and measurements to the showroom and we can usually give a clear view of what is possible.
