Frequently Asked Questions about Chiminea assembly in Exmouth
Where's the safest place to put a chiminea?
At least 3 metres from combustibles - fences, furniture, overhanging branches. A patio or gravel area is ideal. Never on decking (fire risk) or grass (will scorch).
Do clay chimineas need special treatment?
Yes - clay chimineas should be seasoned before the first proper fire. Several small fires over a few days, gradually increasing. I'll explain the process when I set yours up.
Can you move a chiminea I already have?
Yes, if it's not too heavy. Clay chimineas are fragile. I can reposition it to a better location or move it into storage for winter.
Is this worth booking for such a small job?
At 30-60 minutes, combine it with other tasks - furniture assembly, hanging baskets, minor garden jobs. You're paying for the first hour anyway.
