Wood Burning Stove Installation in Ipswich
Ipswich and east Suffolk are a regular run. Whether it is a period house near Christchurch Park or a newer home out towards Kesgrave, the process is the same: survey, fixed quote, clean installation, certificate.
Reopening a fireplace that has been shut for fifty years
Ipswich has a lot of solid brick Victorian and Edwardian housing with original openings that have been boarded over at some point. Opening those back up is often the difference between a stove that looks bolted on and one that looks like it always belonged there.
The housing round here
Out towards Kesgrave, Martlesham and the newer developments, chimneys are often absent entirely, so twin-wall flue systems are common. Those are designed at survey stage with the external route agreed with you before anything is ordered.
Every installation is HETAS registered and fully insured, run out of Carlton Colville, Lowestoft. The same team surveys the chimney, fits the stove and comes back to sweep it.
