Fireplaces & Flues- 9 Feb 2025
I had a couple of other quotes and firefly stoves came in slightly more expensive than others, so initially I was apprehensive but after talking to them and then coming to have a look at the job it became apparent that David knew what he was talking about, a lot more than the others that gave poorly written replies and wanted cash-in-hand. He double checked everything, gave me a proper quote and acted professionally throughout. Job was done quickly cleanly, apart from the brand new flu liner and a bit of dust you wouldn't have known they'd been. Highly recommend.

Wayne fitted a register plate into a rather awkwardly shaped chimney/fireplace. He was excellent to deal with and got the job done really efficiently - less than two weeks from posting the job to completion, all with the fitting of a bespoke plate. Left everything tidy and we now enjoy a much warmer front room.

Questions to ask a local fireplace installer before hiring

Fireplace installation involves fire, gas and structural work, but many homeowners skip checking a fitter’s credentials. A few key questions can prevent safety hazards, costly errors and future issues, helping you find the right fireplace fitter for the job.

Are you HETAS certified (or Gas Safe registered for gas fireplaces)?

HETAS certification is essential for installers of solid fuel and wood-burning appliances as it shows they meet safety and compliance standards recognized by the UK Government. For gas fireplaces, Gas Safe registration is mandatory to ensure safe installation and operation. Always ask to see these credentials to confirm the fitter’s qualifications and legal compliance.

What insurance do you have?

A fireplace fitter should carry public liability insurance, which protects you in case of any damages or accidents during the installation. It’s why MyBuilder requests proof of liability insurance for everyone in our directory.

Does this work require building regulations approval?

Most fireplace installations require compliance with Part J of the Building Regulations, which relates to safety and ventilation standards. Your fitter should be experienced in managing the necessary approvals and providing certification that confirms the work meets all legal requirements.

What guarantee do you offer on your work

Ask your fitter whether they provide a workmanship guarantee, which typically covers defects or problems for at least 12 months after the installation. This guarantee demonstrates confidence in their work quality and offers protection to you as a customer.

Can you show me examples of previous work?

Do you handle chimney and flue inspections?

Proper chimney and flue inspections are critical for safety and efficiency, ensuring correct ventilation and preventing hazards like carbon monoxide buildup. Confirm whether the fitter includes these inspections as part of their services to avoid additional costs and ensure a comprehensive installation.

Why hiring fireplace fitters near you is easy with MyBuilder

What services do fireplace surround fitters provide?

Fireplace surround fitters install decorative frames or mantels around existing fireplaces to enhance the look and style of your hearth. They can work with various materials like stone, wood, or marble and ensure a precise fit and finish.

Do I need a professional to install an electric fireplace?

Electric fireplaces are often straightforward to install and can sometimes be DIY projects, especially plug-in wall-mounted models. However, for built-in or recessed electric fires that require wiring or structural work, hiring a qualified fitter is recommended to ensure safety and a polished finish.

What qualifications should a gas fireplace fitter have?

Gas fireplace fitters must be registered with the Gas Safe Register in the UK. This certification ensures they are trained to install and service gas appliances safely and according to regulations.

All tradespeople on our platform, from sole traders to larger companies, are checked through certification checks or online skill evaluations to confirm their expertise.
