Wood Burning Stove Installation in Norfolk
From your initial survey to the finished fireplace, Stovesman provides a complete stove installation service with experienced building work and HETAS certification all handled by one team.
More Than Just Fitting a Stove
Our professional installation team has over 30 years' experience in building and construction. This means we can offer a complete service, from installing your stove through to fireplace reconstruction and associated building work.
Rather than arranging several different trades, Stovesman can manage the whole installation. That makes the project simpler, reduces delays and ensures every part of the job works together properly.
Our aim is simple: a safe, compliant installation that looks as though it belongs in your home.
Your Stove Installation Needs to Be More Than Just Well Fitted
A stove and flue installation must comply with current Building Regulations. Using a HETAS registered installer means qualifying work can be self-certified and the installation registered correctly.
The certification provides an official record that the installation complies with the relevant requirements. This is important for your property records and may also be required by your home insurer.
A cheaper installation carried out by someone who cannot properly certify the work can leave you responsible for arranging separate Building Control approval.
Stovesman is a HETAS registered company and our qualifying installations are completed in accordance with the applicable regulations and certification requirements.
HETAS Company Registration No. 5708
Everything Your Stove Installation May Need
Every property is different. We assess the stove, fireplace, chimney or flue system and the building itself before recommending the right installation.
Stove Installation
Professional installation of wood-burning and multi-fuel stoves selected to suit your home and heating requirements.
Fireplace Reconstruction
Fireplace alterations and associated building work can be handled by our own experienced installation team.
Chimney Lining
Existing chimneys can be assessed and, where required, fitted with a suitable high-quality flexible chimney liner.
Twin-Wall Flue Systems
No chimney? A suitable insulated twin-wall flue system can make stove installation possible in many properties.
Hearths & Ventilation
We consider hearth requirements, ventilation and carbon monoxide safety as part of the complete installation.
Chimney Access
Where conventional access is difficult, we can arrange suitable access equipment including cherry-picker access where appropriate.
Equipped for More Challenging Installations
Stove installation does not always mean working with an easy, existing chimney. Our experience allows us to tackle installations where access and chimney work require a more practical approach.
Why We Choose Schiedel Chimney Liners
The parts hidden inside your chimney matter just as much as the stove you can see. Stovesman uses Schiedel Technoflex Plus liners because we want the flue system to match the quality of the installation.
Schiedel has been producing chimney systems for more than 50 years. We have installed Schiedel products for many years and use them because of their quality and manufacturer-backed warranty.

The Schiedel lifetime guarantee is subject to its applicable terms, including servicing, chimney sweeping and correct fuel use.
Common Questions About Stove Installation
Some of the most common questions we are asked before installing a wood-burning or multi-fuel stove.
Ask StovesmanDo I need a HETAS registered installer?
A HETAS registered installer can self-certify qualifying stove installations, ensuring the work complies with the relevant Building Regulations. This removes the need to arrange separate Building Control approval for qualifying work and provides certification for your records.
How much does a wood-burning stove installation cost?
The cost depends on the stove selected, whether a chimney liner is required, the condition of the existing fireplace and any associated building work. We provide a survey and quotation before work begins.
Can you install a stove if I do not have a chimney?
Yes. Many properties can use an insulated twin-wall flue system, allowing a stove to be installed where there is no traditional masonry chimney.
Do you carry out fireplace alterations?
Yes. Our experience in building and construction means we can undertake fireplace reconstruction and associated work as part of the stove installation.
Do you provide HETAS certification?
Yes. Qualifying installations are completed in accordance with the applicable regulations and registered through HETAS where appropriate.
Can you line an existing chimney?
Yes. Where required, an existing chimney can be fitted with a suitable flexible stainless-steel liner as part of the installation.
How long does a stove installation take?
Many straightforward installations can be completed within a day. Projects involving significant fireplace alterations, chimney work or a new flue system can take longer.
Do I need planning permission?
Planning permission is not normally required for a standard installation, although listed buildings and some properties in conservation areas can have additional requirements. We can discuss this during the survey.
What areas do you cover?
We install stoves across Norfolk, including Norwich, King’s Lynn, Dereham, Swaffham, Fakenham, Holt, Cromer, Sheringham, Hunstanton, Wymondham, Thetford and surrounding towns and villages.
