Affordable Free Standing Fireplace Installation & Repairs Services
Freestanding closed-combustion fireplaces for Tyger Valley freehold homes and larger townhouses with roof access for a flue.
Tyger Valley grew up around the Tyger Valley Centre and Willie van Schoor Avenue, and much of the housing is townhouses, apartments and security estates. We install fireplaces and braais that work within those spaces and estate rules, and sweep chimneys for houses and complexes in the area.

A large share of Tyger Valley homes are in sectional title complexes and security estates, where the body corporate or home owners’ association controls what can go on a roof or outside wall. Flue position, cowl style and even the type of fireplace may need approval. We supply the product details and flue plan your trustees usually ask for, and work within the estate’s rules.
Units in complexes are often close together and share walls, so clearances to combustible materials and the position of the flue relative to neighbouring windows matter. Where a flue is not allowed, a balanced-flue gas fireplace or a bio-ethanol or electric unit usually still gives you the feel of a real fire.
In freehold homes and larger townhouses with roof access, a closed-combustion wood fireplace is the most efficient way to heat the living area, provided your complex allows wood burning. For Tyger Valley homes, our freestanding closed-combustion range starts from R7,490.
Gas fireplaces suit complexes well because many models vent through an outside wall with a small balanced flue. We install the line and issue the Certificate of Compliance that most bodies corporate ask for.
For apartments and units where no flue or gas line is possible, bio-ethanol and electric fireplaces need only a suitable wall or floor space.
Townhouse patios and courtyards in Tyger Valley are often compact, so the braai needs to fit the space without filling a neighbour’s yard with smoke. We install compact built-in braais with a proper chimney, gas braais that produce little smoke and suit most estate rules, and small pizza ovens for courtyards. We check the body corporate guidelines on braais before recommending a design.
