Free In-Home Heating Consult
Find the Right Heating for Your Home
Advice based on your actual space
Heating advice is more useful when it is based on the home itself. We consider your home’s layout, available space and how you want to use your heating before discussing suitable options.
Practical guidance across heating types
Wood, gas and electric heating each come with different benefits and site requirements. Our team can help you compare the options and narrow down what will work for your home and lifestyle.
Support from first chat through to installation
The Haymarket can support your project beyond product selection. Once your home has been inspected, we can prepare a quote and organise the installation of your new heating system.
How Your In-Home Heating Consult Works
We keep the process straightforward, with clear guidance at each stage.
Step 1
Send us an enquiry
Tell us where you are located, what part of your home you want to heat and whether you have a particular system in mind. It’s fine if you are still deciding between wood, gas and electric heating.
Step 2
We check your site
A member of our team visits your property to look at the space and discuss your heating priorities. We consider practical factors such as layout, possible system placement, access and relevant installation requirements.
Step 3
Receive your quote
Once we understand your home and heating needs, we can recommend suitable options and prepare a clear quote for the proposed system and installation. When you are ready to proceed, we will organise the next steps and arrange installation of your new heating system.
Heating advice that starts with your home
A heater can look right in a showroom but still be the wrong fit for your room, property or heating goals.
An in-home consult gives our team the chance to understand the space before recommending a system. This can help you compare your options with greater confidence and plan for installation from the beginning.
Wood Heating
Explore freestanding and inbuilt wood heating options and consider possible positioning, space requirements and installation considerations.
Gas Heating
Consider gas heating options that provide convenient warmth while complementing the design and layout of your home.
Electric Heating
Learn about electric fires and other electric heating choices that may suit renovations, new homes or spaces where different installation options are needed.
Whole-Home Heating
Consider broader heating needs and whether a ducted or multi-room solution may be appropriate for your property.

Why an in-home heating consult matters
Choosing home heating involves more than comparing appearances or product features. The size and layout of your space, the way you use your home and the practical requirements of installation can all influence which option is suitable.
An in-home consult helps take the guesswork out of that decision. Instead of trying to assess everything yourself, you can talk through your priorities with an experienced local team in the space you need to heat.
Frequently asked questions
Is the in-home heating consult free?
Yes. The consult is free and gives our team an opportunity to understand your space and heating needs before recommending suitable options and preparing a quote.
Which types of heating can you help with?
We can discuss a range of wood, gas and electric heating options, including fireplaces, freestanding heaters and broader home heating systems where appropriate.
Do I need to choose a heater before booking?

Can you advise me if I am building or renovating?
Yes. An in-home consult may be useful when planning a renovation, replacing an existing heater or preparing a space for a new heating system. Let us know about your project when you enquire so we can discuss the next steps.
How should I prepare for the consultation?
Consider which areas of the home you want to heat, what you like or dislike about your current system and any heating styles you are interested in. You can also provide house plans or relevant project information if available.
