What We Do
About Fireplaces
& Interiors of Kent
At Fireplaces & Interiors of Kent, we are a family-run business with over 20 years of experience supplying, designing and installing fireplaces, stoves and media walls across Ashford, Kent and the wider South East.
We are not a faceless online retailer. We are a team of specialists with a showroom you can walk into, products you can see working in person and a genuine passion for helping homeowners create spaces they love.
Whether you are looking for the perfect electric fire for a new build, a bespoke media wall for your living room, a solid fuel stove for a period property or a complete fireplace transformation from start to finish – we will help you find the right solution for your home, your budget and your lifestyle.
Which Fire is Right for You?
Not sure which type of fire suits your home? Here is a quick guide to help you decide – or speak to our team and we will point you in the right direction.
Electric Fires
Best for: homes with and without a
chimney, flats, new builds
Read More
Pros
- No chimney or flue required
- Suitable for any room including smoke controlled areas
- Lowest installation cost
- Flame effect works without heat
- Remote controlled and easy to use
- Exceptionally energy efficient – almost all electricity converts directly to heat
- Minimal maintenance required
Cons
- Not a primary heat source for larger rooms
- Running costs higher than gas or solid fuel
- Flame effect, while impressive, is not a real fire
- Dependent on electricity – won’t work in a power cut
Solid Fuel Stoves
Best for: homes with or without a chimney,
those wanting a real flame
A wood burning or multi-fuel stove gives you a genuine fire with all the warmth and atmosphere that comes with it.
More involved to install than an electric fire but the result is an exquisite focal point that heats a room efficiently and looks stunning doing it.

Pros
- Real flame – nothing replicates the genuine article
- Excellent heat output – can be a primary heat source
- Lower running costs than electric, especially with good quality logs
- Adds significant character to a room
- Works without electricity
- Wide range of styles from contemporary to traditional
- Multi-fuel models offer flexibility on fuel type
Cons
- Higher installation cost than electric
- Requires ongoing maintenance – annual service and chimney sweep
- Fuel storage needed
- More hands-on to operate than electric or pellet
Pellet Stoves
Best for: those who want a real flame
with minimal effort
Pellet stoves give you the look and warmth of a real fire with the convenience of an automated appliance. They self-ignite and with their auto-feeder they can be controlled from your smartphone.
The best of both worlds for homeowners who love the idea of a stove but not the idea of tending it.

Pros
- Automated ignition and pellet feeding – minimal effort
- App controlled – set timers and adjust from your phone

- Defra approved models available for smoke controlled areas
- Smaller flue pipe required than a traditional log burner on select models
- Newer models feature battery back-up for use during power cuts
- Thermostat control available to maintain your preferred room temperature
Cons
- Some models dependent on electricity for automated functions
- Higher purchase price than equivalent solid fuel stoves
- Pellet storage required – must be kept dry
- More complex servicing than a standard stove
- Some models won’t operate during a power cut

What Our Customers Say
Could not rate higher - the team were absolutely fantastic at every point of the journey. The new fireplace and stove were fitted in the summer and we are thrilled! It looks incredible and has seen plenty of use over the last month or so and has completely transformed those cold evenings indoors 😄
Expert service, it is obvious that they have installed hundreds of media walls, we are delighted with ours.
Friendly helpful staff, good service. Recommended.
Really happy with our Media Walls and British Fires organised by Chris and Jacqueline. The workmanship is superb, and both setups offer a real 'wow' factor as you enter the rooms. Chris (and team) were incredibly neat and tidy and I can only recommend them if you're considering either a cinema room, a lovely warm fire or TV room refresh.
Outstanding work, quick & efficient, friendly & helpful, fire is amazing, really pleased with media wall, couldn't fault these guys
