Hello again todays little article is about a product we are getting asked for more and more but it only fits a few of our Fireplaces.
Brand new in the 2010 purple brochure photographed with the Pembroke Black Fireplace is an item called Deeper Back For Solid fuel use.
Basically this is an extra back supplied by us to replace the standard back that comes with the fireplaces it fits. It has been designed to increase the area for burning solid fuel fot the following three Fireplaces
Pembroke
Henley
Jubilee
These three very popular fireplaces have the option of the deeper back which to be fair does increase the size quite a bit and are ideal for customers wanting to use solid fuel fire regurlarly.
The original cast back is removed and this deeper one bolted on replacing it, as it is not tapered as much it forms a squarer opening and also it gains 65mm depth wise too so you have more room to throw on some more coal or a log or two.
It adds £105 to the price of a fireplace package as we have to replace the solid fuel kit with one with a bigger grate and ashpan too.
The damper flap is the same size with the same design on it so if you you wish to use your fireplace for solid fuel regurlarly consider having one of theose three fireplaces and then we can offer you the Deeper back to go with it.
Will add photo next week of the items when i remember to take my camera to the Factory

Hi there sorry for the delay in answering Fireplace emails today (Saturday) i was out shooting till 5 pm ( Last Day of our Season not too good a day) and had renewed our Norton Anti Virus at Work on all our laptops and main pcs which meant it had upgraded in the morning and i forgot to import address book and lower our spam filter settings which meant most of our emails went to Spam Filter
When i spoke to Rhian at Lunchtime she said the phone had not stopped ringing but there had been only 1 email which is very odd for a weekend.
Anyway when i got home i quickly realised what i had done and emptied Spam folder and there they all were so i quickly answered all those with little apology and explanation as to why we were so late answering as we really do try to answer the all within two hours if not straight away.
Rhian had collected a nice little pile of Fireplace and Stove Orders and i was then driven to the Factory to meet some customers from Ramsay St Marys at 6pm at our Showroom
Mr and Mrs Hewlett again did not make it past our show piece surround the Oak Stourhead as they liked it straight away and both said thats the surround now we just need to choose the insert and after finding out they wanted a sollid fuel fireplace with a large burning area they opted for the Jubilee and Oak Stourhead Fireplace Package with extra deep back and solid fuel kit which makes it a good size for burning solid fuel.
This Back is only available with the Pembroke, Jubilee and the Henley so they were more than happy with the chosen fire and left saying they were glad they made the effort to come and see us and after seeing it in the flesh realised they had printed off the same option from our website with realising it just goes to show our pictures must give a good impression of the fireplace so have a look at the photo and see what you think

Having supplied two fireplace orders to Mr Wing from Peterborough who i met on the last delivery early in the morning to deliver a Henley and Kingston Marble Package to i was very impressed by the Edwardain fireplace he had installed in one of his rooms.
Living in a lovely victorian house as he does both these fireplaces we have supplied him look fantastic now they are fitted.
Here below are the comments he left for our website
Dear all at Cast Fireplaces,
I would like to tell you how happy I am with the fireplaces you supplied. Excellent and friendly service both with order, delivery and advice. Both fireplaces top quality products at a very reasonable price.
I would not hesitate in recommending your company. 10/10
Andrew Wing
Peterborough
As you can see he is very happy with his fireplaces and i commented on seeing the Edwardian as i delivered the Henley that it looked really good he told me he had fitted it himself which we normally do not advise.
A few days after delivering i recieved photos of the Edwardian and also a picture of The Henley and Kingston have a look at the following pictures and see what effect can be achieved by having a fireplace installed.
Both Fireplaces we have supplied are for solid fuel use (Real Fire) and he has taken a photo of the both burning away very nicely so hope this gives you some idea of another fireplace and how it will look fitted in your home

So as i sit here at my office desk im very tired today as i went to boxing last night in Nottingham and didnt get to bed till 4.30 am so im having an early night as im off to Norwich in the morning delivering Fireplaces again.
Lucky me i have got to be in Peterborough for 6am on one of our early am deliveries we can arrange when customers order our products.
The Henley and Kingston Marbel Package we are delivering is not a light item so im sure that will wake me up nicely.
The customer who has ordered it has had 2 from us previously so i am looking forward putting a face to the name as i have not personally delivered to him before.
It is always nice to have repeat customers and orders because i always think it shows that you are doing a good job and people trust you to deliver which is one of the reasons why here at Castfireplaces we are regarded as one of the best companies supply fireplaces and stoves online.
I have got some more customer gallery photos to post on here this week to show you various items fitted in houses by our customers so keep checking back to view those features.

Here at Cast Fireplaces we do give all our orders the same level of service whether you are ordering a tube of grate polish for £5.95 or a Henley and Ripley Limestone Package for £665. This reason I am writing this is because today (yes we do work Sundays) we have had a previous customer ring and order a Limestone Gas Package from us because they had ordered a simple tube of grate polish in the past and were impressed by our quick service and helpful manner when asked questions about how to apply the black lead. This they said was the reason they again ordered from us again as they said didn’t even look anywhere else online, as they knew we would offer the best service.
We do really look forward to repeat orders as it shows we are offering a good service and that our customers do appreciate the extra level we go to make there buying experience as simple as possible and along with our competitive pricing and the most excellent home delivery service with 1 hour delivery time slot I’m sure that is why we do enjoy a lot of customer recommendations and repeat orders so if you do need any help or advice with any of our products just email or ring us for honest free correct advice without any sales pressure we really are here to give you the best advice that’s not available from most other High street or Internet based shops.

It gives me great pleasure telling you that the Wooden Fireplace of the month goes to The Crown and Oak Brompton Package this is a real bonus for us as we have only added the Solid Oak Brompton about 8 weeks ago and to beat our Oak Lincoln Mantel into second place is no mean feat.
The Crown Packages we have sold have mainly been Half Polished but we have sold 3 in Black but none in Full Polish finish. Most have been for gas use but all the black ones were for solid fuel use. This particular Fireplace has a shelf width of 54†as it’s very tight to use a 48†mantel with the crown however we offer it with a lot of our other arches such as the Lytton, Jubilee and Henley.
The Oak Brompton surround is made form 100% solid oak finished in a natural oiled finish to enhance the beauty of this lovely wood, it is very traditional in style and is modelled on a Flat Victorian Style Surround which we also do in Pine called the Worcester and in Agean Limestone Called the Brompton (hence the name). It is perfect in proportion and has just enough decorative detail with a moulding around the foot and small moulding on the leg section.
Really I shouldn’t be surprised how well this surround has sold over this month as its terrific value for money as it really is Solid Oak. It is available as a package for use with Gas, Electric and solid fuel so I am sure we have the perfect Victorian styled Oak Fireplace for you.

Our most popular of the month section keeps our customers up to date with which items are selling quicker than others and is a good insight as to what is being installed in other houses. This months best selling Limestone Fireplace is The Henley and Brompton Limestone Fireplaces Gas Package. The Brompton agean limestone surround is hard to knock of its perch as our best seller as its just such a classic Victorian flat panel designed fireplace. This 100% solid agean limestone surround fits absolutely perfect with the Henley Arched Insert, as this is quite a decorative arched fireplace. It looks fantastic in the highlighted finish and I think it looks really classy with this natural white Limestone surround.
It is also available for solid fuel use and this package we do comes in three different sizes 51†54†and 56†Surround and Hearth so we have a brompton fireplace for most sizes of chimneybreasts. Prices start at £610 for this package in our Bargain Stone Solid Fuel Packages this is for the black insert and 54†Surround I am sure you will agree this fireplace will be a great addition to any traditional home requiring a stone fireplace. The picture below shows the Henley Highlighted and the 54†Limestone Surround and if you wish to buy it for Gas use as a lot of our customers have done this month just click on the photo and it will take you directly to the Fireplace package.
