🔥 DAY TWO Fireplace Removed & Wall Made Flush 🔥

Big transformation on this one…

We’ve removed an old chimney breast/fireplace and brought the room back to a smooth, flat wall finish — completely changing the space and giving it a much more modern layout.

Swipe through the stages:

✅ Before – bulky fireplace taking up the wall
✅ During – stripped back and removed safely
✅ Finished – clean, flush wall ready for the room to be used properly again

This is a great option if you want more space, a cleaner look, or to mount a TV / fit furniture without the chimney breast in the way.

If you’ve got an unused fireplace you’d like gone, drop me a message.

🔥 DAY ONE Fireplace Removal Underway 🔥

Another job started this week — removing an old chimney breast/fireplace and bringing the room back to a clean, flat wall finish.

Day one involved stripping everything back and exposing what was really behind the plaster… and as usual, it’s never quite as simple as it first looks 😅

So far today:

✅ Fireplace and chimney breast opened up
✅ Blockwork exposed and carefully taken down
✅ Space already starting to feel bigger

This is going to completely modernise the room and make a huge difference once finished.

If you’ve got an unused fireplace taking up space and want a flush wall for a cleaner layout — drop me a message.
