    I wish to fit a "hole in the wall " gas fire.Does anyone know of someone who would be able to fit one of these types of fire.Work would include closing off some of the fire with blocks,fitting the fire & placing a vent in the wall.I am in the Monaghan region. It is a new build.
    Surely with things quiet out there that someone would be interested in that small job or nixer.

    You're dealing with gas. You need more than a handyman or it'll be an expensive "nixer". Oh and you're next post could be from outer space!

    Get a handyman to make the opening if you wish but get a registered gas installer to fit the gas fire.

    I got quote of €500 for fitting a hole in the wall fire this includes all the work including making the hole bigger fitting the fire connecting the gas and fire resistant plastering.

    I assume most gas shop wont let you buy in B&Q and use their fitters but you could just catch one of them in a van and ask him to do a nixer...
