Start with the right scope.
A first-time addition, a new connection or a newly equipped space. For an existing item at the end of its life, start with Replacing. Make a detailed equipment list and include its practical dependencies.
What the project brief should cover
For new electric fireplace fitting, describe the existing condition, the intended outcome and anything that limits access or timing. Include clear photographs and product details when discussing the job with a provider. Do not submit entry codes, payment details or sensitive records in the form.
- Equipment list. Record what is known and mark anything that needs an on-site check.
- Room dimensions. Record what is known and mark anything that needs an on-site check.

What to confirm before agreeing
Specialty equipment can need structural, electrical or manufacturer-led installation.
Ask for a written scope that identifies preparation, protection, connected trades, disposal, finishing and the agreed completion checks. Confirm the responsible provider’s qualifications, insurance and any local requirements for this work. Ask how concealed conditions and changes are approved before additional charges arise.
Budget and timing
Location, access, existing conditions, product choices and the work included affect the quotation. This page describes a type of request; it does not promise a price, local availability, an appointment or a verified provider match. Confirm any assessment fee and commercial terms directly.
Leave the next stage clear.
Keep product instructions, commissioning details and a record of what was fitted. Plan routine care once the item is in use.
