Yes. If you’re installing a wood fireplace or a wood-burning stove, you’ll need a chimney installed as part of the service. Be sure to confirm this with your Tasker when you book.

Yes. Gas and electric fireplaces don’t require a chimney, as they don’t produce any smoke.

Fireplace and solid fuel stove installations must comply with building regulations and safety standards. While there may not be a single, mandatory licence for this type of work, it is a specialised job. A professional installer should have relevant experience and knowledge of the correct safety requirements. For example, some experienced Taskers may have a background in a related trade like plumbing or construction. We recommend checking a Tasker’s profile to review their skills and experience before you accept an offer.

The timeframe for a fireplace installation varies. A simple electric fireplace can be fitted in as little as 4 hours, whereas a full wood fireplace installation could take up to a week.

The right type of fireplace for you depends on your priorities, such as style, heat output, efficiency or convenience. Wood-burning stoves offer great heating efficiency, while a traditional wood fireplace provides a classic look. Gas and electric fireplaces are generally low-maintenance options. You can discuss your options with a Tasker to help you choose and get an accurate quote for the job.

What does fireplace installation include?

Fireplace installations include help with any of the steps involved in setting up your fireplace, from choosing your heater to installing your chimney. And fireplace repairs include all sorts of tasks, like fixing a tile, unblocking your chimney, and repairing a door hinge. The exact inclusions will depend on the type of fireplace or heater you choose, but the most common ones are: Wood fireplace installation Traditional fireplaces are built into your home’s structure, so the process of installing or repairing a wood fireplace or chimney is often quite involved. Your [handyman](category_url_720) will build around your fireplace unit, using timber, plasterboard, stone, bricks, and other materials to form the structure. They’ll set up a suitable chimney system based on the airflow and thermal dynamics in your building. They’ll tightly seal this to prevent smoke from coming back inside your home. Wood heater installation Your installer will start by positioning your hearth (usually made from brick, ceramic tile, or concrete) to provide a firm, safe base for your wood heater. Next, they’ll install your unit, connecting the flues (inside and outside, on your roof) to carry the smoke outside of your home. ### Gas fireplace installation Once you’ve chosen the best gas fireplace for your space (whether against a wall, built-in, freestanding, or inside your existing fireplace structure), your installer will help organise gas. If you don’t already have gas service to your place, they’ll arrange the connection or gas bottle delivery. Next, your fireplace installer will assemble all the parts, including the unit and flues. They’ll cut holes to place the flues through the ceiling and roof, ensuring all gaps are tightly sealed to prevent leaks and damage. Then they’ll connect up your gas and test your newly installed fireplace. ### Electric fireplace installation Your electric fireplace installer will start by plugging in and testing the fireplace to make sure it works. Then they’ll cut a wall opening to fit your fireplace. Next, they’ll connect up the power supply (you may need a licensed [electrician](category_url_2983) for this step). Then it’s time to lift the fireplace unit into the wall opening before securing it into the wall studs with screws. Finally, they’ll install any decorations (like logs) that come with your fireplace and install the front glass panel.Â
