We install wood-burning and multi-fuel stoves, including customer-supplied units, with full compliance to Building Regulations. Our HETAS-registered engineers provide safety checks and certification. We advise on optimal stove selection for your property's requirements.

Professional removal of bird nests from chimneys prevents dangerous smoke blockages and fire risks. We fit protective cowls to prevent future nesting while maintaining proper flue ventilation. This service restores safe chimney functionality.

So pleased with our log burner, great service and so helpful, David met with our builder who needed to open up the fireplace to enable us to have a stove fitted. Absolutely love it, makes such a difference to the room. Would highly recommend Vale Chimneys.

David was really great helping to remove a badly installed wood burner and fitting a lovely new one. He also replaced our chimney pots and fitted bird guard. Well priced, friendly, tidied up totally and explained everything really well. Has made a massive difference to our house!

David was recommended on a local fb group and we are delighted with the quality and guidance received together with excellent communications throughout the design and installation of our multi fuel stove. We had our own builder on standby as having extension done, and David advised and liaised with him throughout and was even able to give us an earlier fitting date. Competitively priced, excellent finish and a quality stove. Would absolutely recommend to anyone.

Cannot recommend David enough. Excellent service from start to finish! I can certainly recommend Vale Chimneys for any work, big or small! He was able to help us almost completely redesign our chimney breast as we are completing a renovation and nothing was too much trouble, he even came by a few times to check everything was going ok and recommended what to do.
