My wife and I would like to have our old open fire removed and then install a woodburning multi-fuel stove with a chimney liner.
After consulting 4 builders we are undecided about the procedure because it appears that we must involve the Planning authorities for the simple act of installing the liner!
We used the Planning people for our extension and it took 4 months before any decision was made!
With winter fast approaching does anyone know for a certainty what exactly is entailed as regards planning and building regulations?
Regards, Peter.
