GATFire is the UK's leading HETAS & OFTEC registered installers of wood burning stoves, multi fuel stoves, wood burners, fire stoves, fire places and log burners. Our family run business has been providing customers with outstanding service and exceptional value for money for over 15 years.

Our Essex and Kent based showrooms allow our teams of experienced HETAS and OFTEC registered stove installation engineers to serve London and most of South East England.

Our teams of installation engineers have fitted thousands of stoves in locations as diverse as five storey townhouses, studio flats, thatched roof listed buildings, garden offices, corporate head offices, airport lounges and several stately homes.

We understand some people have already bought their stove and need it installed or want to keep their existing stove and update their installation. Therefore, we offer three installation only options:

Stove Installation with customer suppling all installation accessories from only £495 +vat (£594 including vat)

Stove Installation including all installation accessories for properties with chimneys from only £845 +vat (£1,014 including vat)

Stove Installation including all installation accessories for properties without chimneys from only £1,495 +vat (£1,794 including vat)

All of our Stove Installation options include installation of your stove by one of our teams of HETAS and OFTEC registered engineers, test firing the stove, issuing then registering a certificate of compliance with your councils Building Regulations department, removing all rubbish and a 6 year workmanship warranty.

Our two "Stove Installation including all installation accessories" options include all of the installation accessories required to install your stove: a vitreous enamel stove flue pipe, a steel register closure plate, a stainless steel connector or adaptor, a high quality flexible stainless steel chimney flue liner (or a twin wall flue system for properties without chimneys), all fire proof sealants, chimney clamps, flue clamps, a top plate, a stainless steel rain cowl and various other specialist consumables. Most online companies cheep "installation kits" only include a basic stove flue pipe, a register plate, a flexible flue liner and a rain cowl.

Upon request our installation service can also include the supply and installation of all types of fireplaces, mantles, hearths and repairing your existing fireplace or chimney at very reasonable prices.

However, if you have not yet bought your stove, buying a stove online may appear a cheaper option. But this is seldom the case, buying your stove from the same company that will be installing it can save you a considerable amount of time and money.

For example buying a reasonable quality stove online will cost over £400, buying all of the installation accessories normally required to install a stove will cost around £400 and most HETAS or OFTEC registered installers will charge at least £1,000 (£400 + £400 + £1,000) = £1,800.

We can supply a choice of high quality EcoDesign DEFRA approved multi fuel & wood burning stoves, all of the installation accessories normally required to install a stove and full installation by one of our teams of HETAS & OFTEC registered engineers for only £999 +vat = £1,198.80 (saving over £600).

Alternatively, for example buying a prestigious Stovax Stockton 5 multi fuel stove online will cost over £1,200, buying all of the installation accessories normally required to install a stove will cost around £400 and most HETAS or OFTEC registered engineers will charge at least £1,000 (£1,200 + £400 + £1,000) = £2,600.

We can supply a prestigious Stovax Stockton 5 multi fuel stove, all of the installation accessories normally required to install a stove and full installation by one of our teams of HETAS and OFTEC registered engineers for only £1,899 +vat = £2,398.80 (saving over £200).

We offer a selection of over 200 Supplied & Installed Stove Packages all of which feature leading stove brands at exceptional value for money prices.

If your stove is not installed by a HETAS or OFTEC registered engineer you will need to pay up to £450 to your council to apply for Building Regulations approval before your stove is installed. However, failing to use a HETAS or OFTEC registered installer can still invalidate your home insurance and you could experience problems selling your property in the future.

Choosing the right stove installer can be as important as choosing the right stove. You can read more about what you should look for when choosing your stove installer in 10 Rules for Buying a Wood Burning or Multi Fuel Stove.

We are England’s most experienced HETAS and OFTEC registered installer of wood burning stoves, multi fuel stoves, wood burners, fire stoves, fire places and log burners. We have spent the last 15 years maintaining our reputation for offering exceptional value for money and outstanding service.

If you are considering investing in a wood burning stove, multi fuel stove, wood burner, fire stove or log burner, you can trust us to provide you with an outstanding service and exceptional value for money.

1. Only buy a wood burning stove, log burner or multi fuel stove from the company who will be installing it because it is safer and cheaper.‍

If you buy a stove separately if it doesn’t work correctly after installation or several months later, the company who supplied the stove can blame the installers and the installers can blame the company who supplied the stove. This can make it impossible to get a refund, with the only way to resolve the problem being to buy a replacement from a stove company that will supply and install.

2. Do not believe you will save money by buying a stove Online.

Buying a stove Online may initially appear a cheaper option, but you will also need to spend several hundred pounds buying all of installation accessories required to fit the stove. Because online stove retailers focus on just selling stoves, to make the Online option appear less expensive they can forget to explain that your installer is very likely to need far more than just one of their "installation kits" (which normally only include a stove pipe, register plate, flue liner and rain cowl) to install a stove in compliance with building regulations and HETAS & OFTEC rules.

Buying a reasonably quality stove Online will cost around £550, buying all of the necessary installation accessories will cost around £450 and most HETAS or OFTEC registered installers' will charge around £1,000 (£550 + £450 + £1,000) = £2,000

We can supply a high quality stove (£700 RRP), all of the installation accessories normally required and one of our teams of HETAS and OFTEC registered engineers will expertly install the stove for only £999 +vat = £1,198.80

We offer a huge selection of stoves, but if we don’t stock the stove you require, we can usually supply & install any stove available in the UK for considerably less than if you bought your stove separately.

3. Always buy your stove from a company who is HETAS and OFTEC registered.

HETAS and OFTEC are the only industry regulators for the wood burning stove and multi fuel burning stove industry. If you buy a stove from a company that is not registered with at least one or preferably both of the industries regulators, if something goes wrong in the future, the only way to resolve the problem could be taking expensive legal action.

HETAS and OFTEC regulate the installation of wood burning stoves, multi fuel stoves and log burners. If a stove is not installed by a HETAS or OFTEC registered installer you will need to obtain planning permission from your council, your home insurance could be invalidated and you could experience problems selling your property in the future.

GATFire’s very experienced teams of installation engineers are HETAS and OFTEC registered.

4. Only buy a stove from a large experienced well established company who have been in business for over 10 years.

The dramatic increases in gas and electricity prices have led to an increase in the demand for solid fuel burning stoves. Many new stove companies have set up businesses during the last few years to cater for increased demand. If your stove company is not very established, not registered with Companies House of for VAT or does not have showrooms, it may not be around in the future. If a stove company stops trading, it is unlikely you will be able to claim on their business insurance if the stove installation causes damage.

GATFire has showrooms in Essex & Kent and was established for over 15 years ago.

5. Always buy your stove from a stove company who employs their own very experienced installers.

If your new stove is not installed correctly although it may appear to work normally, it may not be operating at its peak efficiency. Some newer less reputable stove companies are not concerned about their reputation, choosing to skimp on installation materials and the time they ensuring the stone operate at peak efficiency in order to increase their profits. Unfortunately, this can mean your stove will never operate at its peak efficiency, causing un-necessary pollution and failing to produce the reduction in heating costs a wood burning stove can provide.

GATFire’s experience installers have installed thousands of stoves which operate at peak efficiency.

6. Do not pay a stove company a large upfront deposit.

If your stove company asks for a large deposit or stage payments, it could be because they are in financial difficulty and cannot afford to buy your stove or pay the installers. Over 70% of new businesses fail within five years. If a stove company fails and your stove causes damage to your home, you could have nowhere to turn. Additionally, paying a large deposit can incentivise a stove company to delay or reschedule your stove installation for weeks or even months.

GATFire requires deposits of only £50.

7. Check your stove company’s public liability insurance is up to date by phoning their insurer.

If something goes horribly wrong during your stove installation, if your stove company or the installers do not have public liability insurance or they have not been able to afford to keep up their monthly instalments, you may have nowhere to turn.

GATFire’s public liability insurance covers up one million pounds per claim, it is paid for in one premium at the start of each year, you can view confirmation of cover by clicking on Insurance at the bottom of the page.

8. Insist the stove company puts everything is in writing.

Make sure your stove company provides you with a written quotation which includes a full breakdown of exactly what is included in the price and a copy of their terms & conditions of business. It is important you receive this information in writing because unscrupulous stove companies make sales by providing unbelievably low quotations, then adding extremely costly extras on the day of installation. If your stove company is reluctant to provide such basic written information you should seriously reconsider the choice of a of stove companies.

GATFire always provides written quotations which include a breakdown of exactly what is included in the price, a copy of its terms & conditions of business and written confirmation of an installation date.

9. Do not pay a wood burning stove, log burner or multi fuel stove company more than you need to pay.

Stove companies who do not advertise their prices do so because they rely on their salesperson to “design” stove installations which often cost thousands of pounds more than you want to spend. Stove companies who advertise “Prices from only…” without giving any real examples, rely on their salesperson to “upsell” stove installations which then cost thousands of pounds more than you want to spend.

GATFire’s will supply and expertly install a high quality wood and multi fuel burning stove for only £999 + vat. Alternatively, our low overheads and strong purchasing power means we can supply and expertly install the luxury designer stove of your choice at an incredibly low price.

10. Try to use a wood burning stove, log burner or multi fuel stove company which has been personally recommended to you.

Reviews included on websites, review sites, trust us sites and social media are easily manipulated and cannot always be relied upon. Multi fuel stove, log burners and wood burning stove companies who receive personal recommendations receive them because of the quality of the work they do and the price they charge.

GATFire’s combination of expertise, quality of workmanship and competitive prices means more than 80% of new customers come to us because a previous customer has recommended them.

GATFire is fully HETAS, OFTEC, SiA and ICO registered. HETAS and OFTEC are the only organisations in the UK that can legally certify the safety of the installation of a solid fuel burning stove. The SiA (Stove Industry Association) is a trade organisation which keeps manufacturers and installers of stoves aware of the latest improvements in technology that can benefit consumers. The ICO (Information Commissioner’s Office) regulates Data Protection to ensure consumer’s personal information is kept safe and secure. We are aware of no other supplier & installer of solid fuel burning stoves with more comprehensive registration credentials.

We specialise in wood burning stoves, log burners and multi fuel burning stoves, so we do not offer gas, electric or bioethanol stoves. During the last fifteen years GATFire has designed and installed thousands of stoves and fireplaces. Our extensive industry experience has enabled us to accumulate the wealth of knowledge necessary to successfully tackle even the most challenging of installations. Our previous installations have included locations as diverse as five storey townhouses, listed buildings, corporate head offices, restaurants, first class airport lounges and several stately homes.

Our showrooms are in Essex and Kent enable us to serve London and most of South East England. We can design, supply and install all types of solid fuel burning stoves, fireplaces, mantles and hearths. We can also create, repair, or enhance your existing fireplace or chimney as part of our installation service.

Our showrooms in Essex and Kent have a wide range of log burners, wood burning and multifuel stoves on display. We normally have available over a hundred different stoves, but if we do not stock the particular stove you want, we can usually obtain any stove available in the UK it within a few days. Our friendly knowledgeable staff are available to answer all of your questions regarding regulations, fuel types, the latest stove technologies, stove efficiency, the installation process and to help you design your ideal fireplace.

If you would prefer not to visit one of our showrooms, our knowledgeable staff can answer your questions and provide expert advice over the telephone. Alternatively, one of our experienced site surveyors can visit you free of charge to discuss your requirements, answer questions, take measurements and provide guidance on any undecided aspects of your installation.

Our experienced teams of HETAS and OFTEC registered engineers will carefully install your new fire to ensure it operates at optimum efficiency. They will then test your new stove, issue a certificate of compliance and then register your certificate with your Local Authority to comply with building regulations. Our installation engineers are committed to ensuring your installation is completely hassle free and meets or even exceeds your expectations.

We pride ourselves in the quality of service we provide, so all of our stove installations are covered by our 6 year workmanship warranty and our Public liability insurance which provides cover of up five million pounds. We also provide a truly comprehensive after sales service, so whether your stove was installed fourteen days or fourteen years ago we will still be available to answer questions and provide free advice for many years.

We fully embrace the very latest high efficiency stove technologies. Therefore, we only supply high quality leading brand stoves which comply with the latest environmental standards and Local Authority regulations. We believe at a time of energy insecurity and high fuel prices, the benefit of lower running costs, low installation costs and the environmental benefit of using a fully renewable fuel source can only be provided by high efficiency solid fuel burning stoves.

GATFire is proud of the knowledgeable advice we provide, the quality of our wood burning stoves, log burners & multi fuel stoves, the quality of the workmanship of our installation engineers and perhaps most of all that we are able to offer all of this at incredibly low prices.
