Gas fires are incredibly realistic looking, do not need to be made each time you want a beautiful cosy fire and can be lit in seconds with the click of a switch or even by remote control. They can have log effect or coal effect fuel beds, for a more contemporary look, the flames can come through a beautiful pebble arrangement.
Many of our wood burning stove suppliers make a gas version as well and it is sometimes hard to tell the difference. However, the gas burners light at the flick of a switch or even by remote control and, of course, they never have to be re-fuelled or cleaned out. An electric stove does not even need a chimney opening - it can be positioned free-standing anywhere where there is a power supply.
The following are a few questions that we are often asked and the answers may help you to understand what may be possible for you. They are not a substitute for arranging for a professional home survey prior to ordering your fire but they may help you to understand some of the issues involved. This will depend on several factors.

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.
