Do I need planning permission
HETAS Engineer
All installs need planning permission
You will need permission to install a solid fuel burner before you start work. Using a HETAS engineer bypasses the need for you to apply and liaise with your local Building Control Inspector.
Building Regulations were updated in 2010 and appliances installed before this are highly likely not to meet safety standards. You might find that your chimney sweep condemns your installation and you may need to undertake work to bring it back up to standard.
Customers in listed buildings should always check whether they need planning permission to change the inside of their building before paying their deposit.
Here's some of the great things our customers said about us in 2022
Thanks for all your work, we are very happy with the woodburner, we will send some photos across.

I wanted to thank you all for what has been a complicated process because of supply chain issues. Your willingness to help with a temporary stove was brilliant and was above and beyond. So pleased with the installation and the guys have done a great job. Love my burner!!
– Caroline in Herts
Many thanks for the seamless installation yesterday. As I said on the phone Jack did an excellent job. You could not tell that anything essentially dirty had been undertaken. We found Jack to be a very pleasant young man as well.

Gareth and his team offer a very professional service. From start to finish the whole process was managed very well and the two gentlemen who completed the work and installation were very friendly and completed my installation to a high standard, cleaning up thoroughly after each visit.
– ROSEMARY IN BEDFORD
We couldn’t recommend Gareth and his team enough! They fitted a wonderful log burner and oak mantle piece for us which we’re very pleased with. The old fire place was removed and the new one put in very efficiently. The aftercare was very good too!

Highly recommend GTD. Gareth and the team just fitted one new stove and moved our existing stove to another room. We also needed a register plate fitted into an inglenook fireplace. The service has been superb. The office provided a clear quotation with options for us. There were supply issues with the stove we’d selected so Gareth and Heather helpfully tracked down an alternative. The installation team were brilliant – friendly, professional and did a great tidy up.
