Why Log Burner Servicing Is Needed

A well-maintained wood burner is a safe wood burner. One in poor condition is a fire hazard, with heavy soot buildup being flammable. Carbon monoxide poisoning is a danger too, and it is impossible to detect if your alarm is not working.

Keep Your Log Burner Efficient

A serviced fireplace operates more efficiently, needing less fuel for a stronger heat output. This will save you money as well as be better for the environment.

Protect Your Log Burner’s Lifespan

Catching small issues as they arise, rather than letting them build up, means you won’t need huge repairs or a complete replacement, ensuring your appliance lasts longer.

Log Burner Compliance

An annual wood-burning stove service is usually a contractual requirement in home insurance policies. Also, if you are a landlord, you are legally responsible for the safety of your wood burner in a property you own.

Need Your Log Burner Servicing?

Annual log burner servicing is not legally required, but should be done for your insurance and to keep your warranty. Small issues can build up until your fire becomes a hazard.

Signs you need immediate servicing include:

  • It’s been nearly a year or over since your last log burner servicing
  • Reduced performance of the fire/stove
  • Soot build-up around the glass cover and the burner
  • Strange smells like soot, damp and chemical can mean a build-up of dangerous materials, moisture in the flue that requires cleaning.
  • Unusual noises like rattling or banging can mean damaged internal parts.
  • Smoke is escaping from the cover and entering the room.

Log Burner Servicing FAQs

Here's answers to some of the most commonly asked questions our HETAS engineers receive about wood burning stove and log burner servicing.

How often should I service my log burner or wood burning stove?

You should get a log burner service at least once a year. If you have a chimney, then you may need to have this serviced more regularly, at least twice a year, to prevent dangerous soot buildup.

How long does it take?

A wood burner service should typically take 1–2 hours. This gives an engineer enough time to perform all relevant testing, cleaning and inspection services. If they spot an issue and need to do repairs, this will extend the time the service takes.

 

What does a log burner servicing cost?

With Centreline, a solid fuel servicing starts from £110. Talk to a team member to get a full and accurate quote.

Is servicing legally required?

On installation, a log burner or wood-burning stove has to be signed off by the installer. Carbon monoxide alarms are a legal requirement and must be in the same room as your appliance, with a yearly service needed to check they are working.

If renting your property, you are legally required to have a yearly log burner or wood burning stove servicing.

    Just had a beautiful stove and chimney breast installed and we couldn't be happier. From our first visit to the showroom through to installation, we have been treated so well. We're particularly grateful to Graham for his advice which saved us at least £2000 and to Andy and the team for being so friendly, considerate (and tidy!) whilst working in our home. Excellent customer service all round. Thank you Centreline!

    Fantastic experience from start to finish! Communicated via WhatsApp with showroom team. So easy and catered to our every need and query. Such a quick turn around from first message to completion. Mike and Adam installed the log burner and they were great. Really friendly and cracking workmanship. The debrief after installation was really thorough and detailed. Couldn’t find fault with any of the process. Great price, great quality and great team. Highly recommend

    I suspected, when looking for installers, that an off the shelf solution wouldn't work for me in my old property. From my first call with Sylvia exploring if it would be possible to keep my existing surround, to my long showroom guide with Chris and my number crunching with Graham, the showroom team were excellent in every respect. They were knowledgeable and patient while I wrestled with the options and finally decided on a new surround and a few upgrades that suited my taste and room. Fitting day dawned and Jamie and Adam arrived promptly at the time expected. The work was no walk in the park for them. The first discovery was that my fireplace extended into my cellars, this was solved with additional lintels. The second was a brick fall and the discovery that the mid-feathers in my 1880 build shared chimney had collapsed at some point in history necessitating a visit with my neighbour, all handled professionally and flue liner fitted successfully in consultation with their roofer. The next challenge was uneven walls and floor which made finding a level for the hearth a nightmare, and the final challenge was lining up the diamond patterned chamber that I'd chosen. All this to say that if you expect your property to be challenging (and even if you don't) you're in safe hands. These additional challenges were handled with good humour and a fantastic work ethic. They were clean and tidy and didn't stop from 9am until they finished around 5pm. I don't even remember them stopping for lunch. The included photos really don't do it justice because I've not finished touching up paint or put the room back together yet but it gives an idea of the workmanship and finished look. I'm honestly delighted and I'll be getting Centreline back to tackle the other room when I can. I would not go anywhere else.

    Had a multistove installed today. It took a week from picking the items to having them installed. Cannot fault this company. I was booked in, on the day they turned up early to start the job and worked until the job was complete and the customer was happy, which we are. The price was very good too. Keep up the good work, guys.

    Hi Graham I am not one to write reviews but wanted to let you know how delighted we are with our new fireplace and log burner. After a dreadful job by a company in Chester who badly designed a media wall with an electric fire which was awful, they were not interested in rectifying the job, we needed to start again. I was nervous about this as we had such a bad experience but I have to say, I needn’t have worried. From Walking into the showroom and speaking to Kev, we were reassured, the quality of the fires and surround was evident. The communication and workmanship fantastic. For anyone thinking about a fire; surround or media wall, I highly recommend you go to Centerline

    I had read many of the reviews and wondered how good could a company be.. I was therefore a bit sceptical but because I had a personal recommendation decided to go with Centreline. From start to finish the whole team were well organised, considerate and highly professional. Full marks to Graham for organisation, Eddie the roofer for chimney stack repair and Mike and James for the stove installation. Thanks to all involved, I couldn't be more happier with my decision to go with centreline.
