A fire surround for use with a substantially enclosed gas fire unit ( 34 ) comprises an outer fascia ( 12 ) securable, in use, to a chimney breast around a flue opening in the chimney breast, the outer fascia having an opening therein for receiving the gas fire unit ( 34 ), and an inner fascia ( 22 ) securable, in use, to the outer fascia ( 12 ) so as to entrap an out-turned flange ( 40 ) of the gas fire unit ( 34 ) between the inner and outer fascias. The inner fascia ( 22 ) comprises a pair of side columns ( 26 ) bridged by a top portion ( 28 ), and at least one of the side columns ( 26 ) is formed as a channel member for receiving a slide control for operating the gas fire unit ( 34 ). The invention also provides a method for the securing such a fire surround to a chimney breast so as to secure in place the gas fire unit ( 34 ).
