I can't be faffed to shop around, I'm tired. If this is in right ballpark, then that'll save me headaches.

Installation - £320
Install hearth (I supply) - £80
Materials (not sure what they they are, a bit of cement to level hearth area?!) - £50

Liner - £300
Flue comps - £200

It's for multifuel, so assume liner is the posher stuff.

Sounds quite low! Is that for supply and fit of liner/cowl etc, or just fit?

It's everything excluding stove. Eg, it's £1940 with an Esse 100 s/e. (again, I supply hearth though, they fit).

Very good price then, as long as the liner is the right grade.

Who's signing it off for regs, or is it HETAS? (Seems way too low for HETAS).

that's the cheapest HETAS quote I have heard!

They normally charge like wounded buffalo.

Right, that'll do me thanks. Nice to have a straightforward, good quote I can just accept! (That slate hearth does look quite tasty though)

I paid £1150 for the installation in January this year, included all materials plus a days labour for two to install. It included installing a stove as well as the hetas certification. I had quite a long chimney, think it was 11m and they installed the 906 multifuel liner.
