Homes without a chimney
Electric fires do not need a flue, so they work in many rooms where gas or solid fuel would not.

Electric fires in Solihull
Where can you get electric fires in Solihull? Sontuoso Stone supplies and fits electric fires for Solihull homes, including inset fires, electric suites and media wall routes, with stone surrounds or panels planned around the chosen product. Electric is often the practical answer where there is no chimney, no gas route or a clean flat-wall feature is wanted.
electric fires Solihull
This page is for electric fires Solihull specifically. The broader Solihull area page covers fireplaces, gas fires, stoves and samples as well.
Electric is often the practical answer for newer homes, flat walls, media walls and rooms where a clean everyday fire matters more than a chimney. The showroom is close enough for Solihull customers to compare flame effects, trims and stone samples before deciding.
The local context from the Solihull area page matters here: newer houses and extensions often need a focal point without pretending there is an old fireplace opening. Electric fires can work on flat walls, in suites or in built-out media walls, but the fire depth, socket route, television position and stone finish all need planning before the wall is finished.
The Shirley case study is the most useful local proof for this route. It used a Tucson electric suite in Blanco Micro and Giorgione marble with a Firez 1250 three-sided electric fire, then added bespoke matching marble benches so the wall read as one continuous feature. It shows that an electric fire can be part of made-to-measure stonework rather than a loose appliance.
For Solihull customers, the showroom visit is useful because electric flame effects, trims and glass reflections are difficult to judge from photos. You can compare an inset electric fire, a wider media wall fire and a complete electric suite, then decide whether the room needs a hearth, surround, stone bench, panel or a simpler fire-only route.
The broader town hub is the Solihull area page, which covers the wider fireplace, fire and stove service for Solihull.
Process
How the electric fire supply and fitting route works
01
Tell us the room
Send photos, rough measurements and what you want the room to feel like, or bring them into the showroom so we can look at the fireplace wall properly.
02
We design and quote
We check the opening, wall, finish and practical route before quoting, so the product and the stonework are planned together rather than treated as separate purchases.
03
We make the stonework
The surround, hearth, chamber, panel or trim is cut in our own Midlands workshop to the measurements and finish agreed for the room.
04
We fit it
Once the product and stonework are ready, the fitting is arranged around the room, the access and the finish needed, with the details confirmed before work begins.
How we quote
What affects the quote
We do not give a useful figure until we understand the room. The quote is affected by the size of the opening or wall, the product chosen, the stone or porcelain finish, the hearth depth, the amount of made-to-measure work and whether the job is a chimney opening, a flat-wall fix or a built-out feature.
Photos and rough measurements are enough for a first conversation. Before anything is made, we confirm the important details and give you a clear written route, so the price reflects the actual room rather than a guess from a catalogue image.
There is no online checkout because the important details are not fixed until the room has been understood. A showroom visit helps with stone samples, flame effects and fireplace scale, while a survey or final check confirms the practical route before the workshop cuts the surround, hearth, chamber or panels.
Lead time depends on the product, material choice, workshop schedule and fitting route. We give that timescale with the quote, and we are clear if a project needs extra checking before a date can be promised.
