How do I choose the right size fire surround?

Measure the height and width of your fireplace opening and check the internal dimensions of the surround to ensure correct clearance. Consider the proportions of the room and the height of the ceiling when selecting a grander chimney piece. Take note of the mantel shelf length and the overall footprint to guarantee the piece sits comfortably against your chimney breast.

How do I clean and maintain a wooden fire surround?

Dust the timber regularly with a soft, dry cloth to prevent the accumulation of soot and grime. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners that can strip historic paint finishes or damage exposed grain. Apply appropriate wax sparingly to unpainted hardwoods to nourish the timber and maintain a natural sheen over time.

What is the difference between a pine and an oak surround?

Pine is a softer wood that was frequently painted or gessoed, offering a smoother surface for intricate classical detailing. Oak provides a denser, more durable structure with a prominent grain pattern suited to Arts and Crafts and Edwardian aesthetics. Both materials respond differently to interior humidity, influencing how the timber ages within a domestic setting.
