Stove installations and fireplace reconstruction by a Norfolk company with over 30 years' experience in the solid fuel industry.
Stovesman has been operating in Norfolk for over 30 years, supplying and installing wood burning and multi-fuel stoves into homes across Norfolk and Suffolk.
We are not simply stove fitters. Our installation team comes from a building background, which means we can carry out the building and fireplace work needed as part of the job rather than leaving you to find additional contractors.
Whether you already have a fireplace ready for a stove or need the whole area opening up and rebuilding, come and talk to us about what you would like to do.
Many installations need more work than people initially expect. An existing fireplace may need opening up, a new hearth may be required, or the chimney and flue may need work before a stove can be safely installed.
That work can all be dealt with by Stovesman. We have many years of experience in the building and restoration industry as well as the solid fuel trade.
If you are comparing installation quotes, make sure you know what is actually included and who will certify the finished work.
A solid fuel stove installation must comply with the relevant Building Regulations. This covers more than simply connecting a stove, including requirements around the chimney or flue, ventilation, hearth and the way the appliance is installed.
As a HETAS registered installer, Stovesman can self-certify qualifying installation work and provide the appropriate certification when the installation is complete.
A general builder may be able to physically install a stove for less, but if they cannot self-certify the work, Building Control may need to be involved separately. You should also make sure you have the documentation required by your home insurer.
Ask who will certify the finished stove installation and whether that is included in the price.
Every property is different, which is why we prefer to look at the job properly before telling you what is needed.
We look at the fireplace, chimney and room and discuss what you would like to achieve.
We can advise on output, size and the type of stove suitable for the property.
Fireplace, hearth, chimney and flue work is completed where required.
The stove and flue system are fitted and the installation is commissioned.
The completed qualifying installation is certified through HETAS.
From straightforward replacements to opening up and rebuilding fireplaces, every installation is different.
Our showroom at Horningtoft, around five miles south of Fakenham, has a range of wood burning, multi-fuel and electric stoves on display.

Stovesman has over 30 years' experience in the solid fuel industry and has supplied and installed stoves into thousands of homes across Norfolk and Suffolk.
Our background in building and restoration work is particularly useful when installing a stove into an older property. It is common to find that an existing fireplace needs altering or opening up before the new stove can be fitted.
We can deal with the fireplace construction, hearth, chimney lining and flue requirements as part of the same job rather than leaving different parts of the installation to several separate trades.
We use quality chimney and flue products and can advise on what is required after inspecting the property. The right solution depends on the stove, the existing chimney and the construction of the building.
If you are considering a wood burning or multi-fuel stove, the easiest place to start is with a survey. We can look at what you already have, discuss the type of stove you want and explain what work will actually be required.
Arrange a free survey and we'll come and look at the job properly before advising you on the stove and installation.
