Fireplace Construction

Fireplace Construction - Heat-Resistant Materials for Building and Maintaining Fireplaces

Solutions for open fireplaces, cassette stoves, and modern biofuel installations

Vitcas offers a complete range of high-temperature construction materials for building all types of fireplaces, whether traditional or contemporary. Whether you're constructing an open fireplace, cassette stove, freestanding wood burner, or even a bioethanol or gas-fuelled fireplace, our materials are engineered to meet the demands of both residential and commercial applications.

Construction of fireplaces and surrounds

Vitcas products are suitable for building the structural components of a fireplace, including the base, smoke chamber, and firebox. Materials such as Fireplace Construction Boards provide a non-combustible and thermally stable foundation for the installation. These can be fixed in place using Board Adhesive, ensuring secure and fire-safe bonding.

To achieve a smooth, fire-resistant decorative finish, our Heat Resistant Plaster is applied over the board surface. This system is ideal for use behind and around wood-burning or gas-fuelled fireplaces and stoves, where ordinary plaster would crack or degrade under heat.

Fireplace maintenance solutions

In addition to construction materials, Vitcas supplies products for the ongoing maintenance of fireplaces. This includes Chimney and Flue Cleaner, which removes creosote and soot build-up to maintain airflow and improve safety. For restoring door seals and maintaining heating efficiency, thermal rope seals and adhesives are available to fit various stove models.

Typical applications

  • Constructing open fireplaces, stoves, and cassette installations

  • Building heat-resistant fireboxes, surrounds, and recesses

  • Fire-safe finishing with heatproof plaster systems

  • Maintaining chimney hygiene and stove door seals
