Hi,
We had a wood burning stove fitted a few weeks back. Looked great but had some issues with the heat coming out. The installer came back to have a look at it it and one of the solutions was to put a sealant around the base of the flue where it connects the stove.
The problem we have now got is the sealant looks a bit rubbish - there's loads on, it's wonky and the gloss finish doesn't sit well with the matt black stove.
I wanted to know if there was anything i could do to solve the problem? if the sealant can be removed, i'm happy to do that and then re-do it so it's a better finish. Or, would i be better spraying over the flue/sealant with a matt stove paint?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Cheers
