Fireplace Removal

[jonnersd]

Currently rennovating a house to live in (from hopefully next week) and I am stumped as to how to remove the existing oil based fireplace - I have removed the cement - and now held in by only one pipe, which was originally connected to the old oil system (now replaced by gas). The shear weight of the steel does not help - does anyone have any ideas? I am sure it is a five minute job; alternatively does anyone know of a co to help in the Portmarnock area?

Thanks

Hi jonnersd,

Welcome to AAM.

was originally connected to the old oil system (now replaced by gas). The shear weight of the steel does not help - does anyone have any ideas? I am sure it is a five minute job; alternatively does anyone know of a co to help in the Portmarnock area?

Thanks

If it is currently connected to the gas system then it sounds as if it is a job for a professional. Would a recommendation from www.bordgais.ie be in order?
