Im not sure what has been happening over the last couple of days but we have sold 7 tiled fireplace sets and 5 of them have been sold today via sales from our showroom and our website.
We do offer the full range of Tiled Inserts from gallery and they are all on our website but for some reason today it has gone mad on them.
Most have been sold with traditional style surrounds from the Bedford in Pine throught to the Flat Victorian Brompton Limestone.
Only 1 of these inserts was sold on its own and a Mrs Brown from Dalton in Furness who drove down today to view and collect it.
Dalton is a fair way from us but after finding out if we had the Northmoor Black in stock they decided to have an afternoon in the Derbyshire Countryside before heading off home.
As we are close to Matlock Bath and the Gateway to the Peak District quite a few of our customers tie a visit to us with day out some even go to Denby Pottery which is a mile from my house.We have even have customers visit us at Langley Mill and go to Ikea and the DH Lawrence centre at Eastwood which is close to us too.
We are lucky where we are situated with good road links and being in the centre of the Uk we have customers travel from miles to view and Collect our range of Fireplaces and Stoves.
So next time your after a fire why not pick up a map or use your satnav to find some local attraction you can visit whilst out his way and make a full day of it exploring Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire there really is so much to see not just our beautiful Fireplaces

Tiled Fireplace Collected then Visited Derbyshire
Thursday, March 11th, 2010Space sorted for Fireplaces arriving into stock
Saturday, March 6th, 2010As i said last week we have a huge amount of Cast iron fireplaces arriving to us next week and to be honest just in time too as we are out of Pembroke Black Fireplace and only have a few of the other items we stock left.
After such a busy week my job has been made easier in moving things around as alot of the crates we keep this items in are nearly empty which means we can remove them and replace crates with full ones and then just recrate all the oddments together.
So space will be made in the morning for the deliveries arriving Wednesday, Thursday and Friday this week.
Im sure John from our suppliers will be sick of the Journey to Langley Mill by the end of the week, but i know he does appreciate our forklift and the amount of work we now do not have to do as anyone in the fireplace trade knows cast iron fireplaces are very heavy items.
We are also expecting a delivery of Jura stone mantels we have on order and i know Daz is busy this week making Oak Lincolns and Bedfords again just in time to replenish stocks to ensure our quick delivery service is kept up and running.
Right off to Stuarts to drop off a late order ive added to his van for a customer tomorrow (sunday) so they now have a stove to go with there Limestone Package and still will only pay 1 delivery charge saving them both money and time.
Thats why we keep so much in stock it makes us better than the rest
Made to Measure Fireplace Surrounds how long do they take
Thursday, December 10th, 2009Today i have been asked if we can do made to measure Bedford Surround unwaxed and delivered to Truro Cornwall by Friday.
Now this is really to much short notice and the Customer seemed surprised when i said it would not get delievered until January they actually said well why can’t you make it Monday and deliver it Tuesday or Wednesday.
Now 1st off do they think we are sat twiddling our thumbs at the busiest time of year waiting for orders to come through and seeing as they are 302 miles way from us too even if we could have made it in time how could we possibly go down there with just one surround.
Now we do try our best to juggle things round to help our customers but this really is a step to far and they honestly did seem annoyed when i told them it could not be done.
So it just goes to show how ever hard we try we just can’t please everyone.
So if ordering a made to measure Timber Surround or Hearth please allow a couple of weeks to get it ready for you and bear this in mind when placing your order.
As i have said before if we can get it done we will just like Peter from a building company in East London who ordered a Valencia 21″ firebasket and gas insert and needed it tomorrow to fit in customers house it is now on a carrier and being delivered before 12 o’clock so they can complete the job. So as you can see we will try and make sure your fireplace items get delivered when you want them most of the time.
Victorian Style Bedford Mantel is Modern Fireplaces Best Seller
Wednesday, July 8th, 2009Once again we get round to which of our Modern Fireplaces has sold best in the Month of June and this Month it is the Granite Panel and Pine Bedford Suite which has been ordered in both gas and electric use making it the run away winner in this section.
We are in the process of altering this category to make it easier to navigate the various sections so keep an eye out for that.
Let me tell you a little more about this month’s winner. This set is a little strange to call a modern fireplace as it has a very traditional Victorian
Styled Pine mantel which is called the Bedford. This surround is made from solid pine and features two nice scrolled corbels just underneath the shelf. Apart from that it’s reasonably plain and is suited to most inserts.
When we photographed these together I wasn’t sure whether it went well together but after giving it a try im now convinced and so are this months customers that it works.
The Matching panel and hearth set we supply is available in two sizes of 48†and 54†each with the Bedford surround to match.
The Electric and Hotbox Gas Fire inserts we supply with this package can be fitted with any of our Gallery Fret and trim sets available in various colours and styles to personalise the look of your new fireplace, this option creates numerous looking fires and we always confirm you trim and fret choice after your order has been placed to make sure you get the right item you want.
The photograph below shows the Pine Bedford with the electric insert complete with Bauhaus Silver Fret and Silver trim to match so if you wish to but just click on photo below.

Thursday, July 2nd, 2009Claire Cox from Dudley contacted Cast Fireplaces via our easy to use Website to supply a tiled insert and surround package for gas use.
The order was placed on the 7th June and was delivered the following week
The item she order was the Black Tiled Insert and Pine Bedford Gas Package they chose the 48†Pine Bedford Mantel with the Haslingden Burgundy Ivory Tiles.
This item has now been installed and a photograph was sent to us on the 29th June.
The Tulip Black cast iron fireplace insert is one of our best selling tiled inserts second only to the Toulouse. It has a decorative hood with the tulip pattern on it (hence the name) and comes complete with a set of art Nouveau bars and ash pan cover
The Haslingden tiles they have chosen compliment the fireplace very well and the choice of the 48†pine Bedford Mantel fits the chimneybreast perfectly and makes a great feature.
If you to wish to order this feature set just click the link above or click or on the photo shown below of this fireplace fitted in place and I’m sure you will agree it makes a very nice feature and a real bargain at £610 and is also one of the best selling wooden packages we sell.
