About Scarlett Fireplaces
WHY CHOOSE US.
Since 1991, the Scarlett team have been dedicated to perfecting traditional fireplace, wood burning stove and chimney design throughout Essex and London.
While embracing modern regulations and technologies, we continue to apply our exclusive leading-brand wood burners and multi-fuel heating systems as components to create timeless, efficient centrepieces — ensuring the responsible use of natural flame without detriment to the environment.
Every project we undertake reflects a simple principle: good design is the foundation of clean combustion.
When the fireplace, chimney and fuel all work in harmony, efficiency follows naturally — along with warmth, comfort, and lasting beauty.
OUR MISSION.
As a family-run business, we see it as our duty to use our practical knowledge and craft skills to help realise the potential of wood burning as a responsible, local and renewable biofuel — one that can form part of a carbon-balanced future.
We believe that when fire is understood, not feared, it becomes part of the environmental solution — connecting homes, woodlands and communities in a sustainable cycle of care and creativity.
Scarlett Fireplaces promotes a measured, ethical and transparent approach to heating — never driven by greenwashing or fashion, but by experience, integrity, and respect for the craft.
WHAT WE DO.
It’s not just the romance of a fire that matters.
Alongside your design inspirations,, the Scarlett team provide practical, technical and aesthetic advice to make your choice hassle-free — from the first drawing to the final lighting of the stove.
Our installations combine:
-
Architectural fireplace design that maximises radiant and convective heat.
-
Intelligent chimney systems that ensure safe and efficient draught performance.
-
Sustainably sourced local wood fuel for cleaner burning and true energy resilience.
The result is safe, efficient heating that reduces emissions, supports healthy woodlands, and brings timeless warmth to your home.
TIME SERVED SPECIALISTS
It all began in 1989, when Jason Scarlett built his first brick fireplace after completing an apprenticeship with a high-quality local builder.
Experience gained scaffolding within the oil industry helped form a deep understanding of structure, safety and precision — skills that later defined his approach to chimney construction, repair and maintenance.
By 1997, Jason had inherited the client base of John Deacon, the last HETAS-registered solid fuel engineer in Essex, whose business served an ageing generation of coal and wood users.
Those early years — when the local solid fuel industry consisted of just us and a few chimney sweeps — built a foundation of practical knowledge and historic continuity that remains invaluable today.
Over three decades later, Scarlett Fireplaces has grown into a trusted name in fireplace design, chimney engineering and responsible wood heating, while staying true to the values that shaped its beginnings.
