About Ember Stoves & Fireplaces

Wood-Burning Stove & Fireplace Specialist in the Mendips

I install wood-burning stoves and fireplaces across Wells and the wider Mendips — doing the job properly, from the initial survey right through to a clean, tidy finish. Every installation I take on gets the same careful attention, whether it's a new stove in a modern home or a fireplace restoration in a period property.

Before any work begins, I visit the property to assess the chimney, flue and hearth, check that everything is compliant and advise on the right stove for the space and the budget. You get a fixed written quote after the survey — no surprises on the day and no variations afterwards. I'm HETAS certified and fully insured, and I leave the site spotlessly clean.

A stove or fireplace is a long-term addition to your home, and I want you to love it for years to come. I take care of every detail — from flue liner sizing to hearth materials — so that the finished result is something to be genuinely proud of.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the process for getting a new stove or fireplace installed?

It starts with a free site survey at your home. I assess the chimney, flue and hearth, advise on the right stove for your space and budget, and then provide a fixed written quote. Once you're happy to proceed, I schedule the installation and handle everything through to commissioning and HETAS registration.

How much does a wood-burning stove installation cost?

Every installation is different — the price depends on the stove chosen, the condition of the existing chimney or flue, and whether a new liner is needed. I don't give estimates over the phone. After a free site survey I provide a clear, fixed written quote covering all the work with no hidden extras.

Are you insured and HETAS certified?

Yes. I am HETAS certified, which is the recognised competency scheme for solid fuel and wood-burning appliances in the UK. Every installation I complete is registered with HETAS, providing the certificate required by building control. I am also fully insured for all the work I carry out.

How long does an installation take?

Most wood-burning stove and fireplace installations are completed in one to two days, depending on the scope of work — for example, whether a new flue liner is required or significant hearth work is needed. I'll give you a clear timeline as part of your fixed written quote.

Are there any grants or schemes that could help with costs?

Government and local authority schemes supporting cleaner heating do change from time to time, so it's worth checking current eligibility if you're considering a qualifying appliance. I'm happy to talk through what might be relevant during your free site survey.

What areas do you cover?

I cover Wells and the surrounding Mendips area, including Glastonbury, Street, Shepton Mallet, Cheddar, Radstock, Midsomer Norton, Frome, Bath, Bridgwater and surrounding villages across Somerset. Get in touch if you're unsure whether I reach you.
