Fireplaces & Flues- 9 Nov 2016
Very happy to keep up Gary's 100% positive feedback record on this website. He was very quick to visit and quote for the work, as well as advise us on suitable wood burners. The job was then completed quickly and efficiently, despite being an install that required a new hearth cut to size, a flue installed, new chimney pot and installation of a carbon monoxide monitor. The stove and fireplace really has transformed our living room in under a day. We are also happy to recommend Gary (and Matt of course) for his friendliness, professionalism and keeping his promise on things like when he would turn up to do the work. From first contact on here to a completed job and happy customers in nine days, not bad!

Quote just to install was over £250 more then another company and company who they recommended to have the fire place purchased from had zero interest and wasn’t customer caring in my personal opinion. Was actually over charging me as well which wasn’t right considering the journey I had made to them. A experience I would like to forget thanks

I used John to replace my kitchen roof and fill it with insulation. John is a friendly person, easy to get on with, offered a very competitive quote and got on with the job very quickly. He actually gets involved with his work and talks it through with the customer; he suggested a better solution than the one I originally asked for. The finished job looks excellent, was good value and has given me a much more comfortable room. Highly recommended.

What qualifications do fireplace installers need to have?

When you are hiring a fireplace installer, make sure they hold proper certifications from trusted bodies like HETAS for solid fuel appliances or the Gas Safe Register for gas fireplaces.

Certified professionals not only guarantee quality work but also provide warranties and carry liability insurance, giving you peace of mind and protecting your investment.

Here are some key qualifications to check for when hiring a local fireplace fitter:

HETAS Certification: Certifies the installer to safely fit solid fuel and wood-burning appliances per regulations.
Gas Safe Register Membership: Certifies the installer to work on gas fireplaces safely and legally.
NVQ Level 2/3 in Heating & Ventilation: Verifies competence in installing fireplaces, stoves and flues.

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

FAQ: Your questions about fireplace installers answered

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.

Where can I find reviews on fireplace installers?

Popular platforms like MyBuilder have verified customer reviews on fireplace installers, allowing you to compare local ratings and feedback before hiring.

Can fireplace installers handle chimney inspections and repairs?

Many fireplace installers also offer chimney inspection and repair services, but it’s best to check their qualifications and experience to confirm they can handle comprehensive chimney work safely.
