    I'm buying the stove myself but builder providing everything else. Will be single stove in corner of a room with a stainless steel chimney. Need about 5mts of chimney. Chimney will go through ceiling then thru empty attic and out through slate roof. Will put a slab of marble underneath stove which builder said would be roughly €450. Anyone estimate a total cost including labour?

    I'd imagine 300-500

    Get stove seller to install, you will only have to get the marble.
    Hoiw it works is you take pics of room, roof etc and stove supplier will price to install.
    Very competive price can be got.

    Presume you're just talking about labour?


    Was really wondering if someone could come up with a rough total price for everything bar the stove, have got one but think its slightly high

    First you start of with a 1mtr connecting flue pipe €50
    Then your into a twin to single wall adaptor €60
    To the ceiling goes a rosette €30
    Then you have your 5 mtrs two wall flue
    € 300
    Then you have a rafter support €40
    Then a support racket. €40
    Then your flashing €100
    Then your cowl. €50
    So roughly speaking around
    materials €650
    Labour €400-€500
    Hearth. €350

    They are rough prices but you'll find their not to far off

    What you say is close to what I thought it should be. Been quoted €2100. Reckon that's far too much. Is there different standards of chimney or they all similar?

    The flue has to be rated for solid fuel and a min diameter of 150mm

    Plus, if not already there, add on a vent in the wall and carbon monoxide alarm
