How to Remove a Timber Surround
A fireplace with a timber surround is usually fixed to the wall by screws attached to timber battens in the wall behind.
Safely removing the timber surround can be achieved by following these steps:
• The screws fixed to the timber battens will be concealed by filler or paint. You need to uncover these screws.
• Once all the filler or paint is removed - undo the screws.
• The timber surround should just lift out of place.
• Remove the timber battens in the wall.
