We've bought a Victorian house that was previously in multiple occupancy. There are 4 blocked off fireplaces. The main heating is gas CH radiators, which is working well.
We're keen to have a real fire in the front room & possibly the other reception room, which is going to be a dining room. In each case there's what looks like a perfectly serviceable fireplace - we've removed a metal plate from the front room & a broken gas fire from the 'dining room'.
There aren't any chimney pots on the roof.
Obviously we're going to need to get someone in, but can anyone advise me as what we need to do & what we might expect it to cost?
