WANTED Slate Hearth

Hello

I'm looking for a slate hearth as we are ripping out our art deco one which is falling to bits and we are replacing it with something Victorian.

I haven't got the right grinder to cut it to size though.

I'm looking for something that is 42 and 1/8 " wide x 12 and 1/4 " deep in new money that's 107cm wide x 31 cm deep.

Thanks a lot

Paul

 

You can hire grinders for the day

 

Good point!

I guess i would like something close to those dimensions though.
I think it would need to be some sort of big grinder with a diamond cutting disk?
Forgot to say I'm based in West London

Ta.

To get a single bit of slate that size will cost a fortune,maybe make it up in 2 bits.Or slate tiles.

 

Got mine from a reclamation yard a few years ago. They cut it to size for me too.

 

Try Asper Marble in Hounslow , they will cut to any size and if it’s going under a wooden stove your need it in two sections , one under and the other as the required hearth

Thank folks. It’s a Victorian fireplace for an open fire using a fire back.

 

Try eBay and all the usual free ads just bought one with a matching back for fifteen quid

 

Got a big old slab for £20 on ebay. Got to pick it up now!
Weird as I'd been looking on there for about a year.
Cheers

Don’t forget to put some pictures up when you’ve finished it

 

Will do. But won't start until July.
