Has anyone got a block built fireplace in their timberframe home? Is it a big job?
 
No its not a big job. Homebond have rules about enclosing chimney etc. Will need to tell timber frame maker where you want fireplace
 
You can decide between a traditional block built system or a modular system. The modular systems are produced by a number of companies. I ve never seen them used so dont know if they are convenient, cost effective etc
 
Might be a supid question but can you light a fire in a timberframe house?

No, it burns down immediately.

It's handy for getting the insurance, though.

(Seriously, what do you think the inside of your block built house is made of?).
