Having a wood burner installed next month and can’t wait to get the fire roaring !

Had a gas fire in the front room for the last two years that hasn’t ever been used.

I’ve already taken some before pics and will post some after.

So... show me your before and after pics and wood store if you have any!

Before


After - TBA

Here are the after pics now install has been completed, need to do a bit of touching up and paid the fire board but other than that I think it looks fantastic.

Not sure if this will work, but a picture (I hope) of our woodturner which was fitted into out new build today. Edited to say it appears to be sideways!
Crap picture wink but love the modern look of that burner

What make is that? Love the big glass front, looks ace.
+1 for the make please. Like that a lot.
Cheers guys, it's a Parkray Aspect 5 compact. We liked the glass window a lot as well! The room isn't massive so we wanted something with a lot of glass that isn't too deep to manage the output.
Thanks!

(shamefully, now ordered and fitting booked for Jan)
Great stuff, before and after pics mandatory! Ha

Nice!

What paint did you use in the recess? Same as the chimney breast?
I’ve gotta paint mine but I’m not sure how normal paint holds up to such high temps

The builder that installed mine said you can just use normal paint so I will be using some dulux diamond eggshell

Installers came round and made up a bend in the glue to move it away from the wall
