“Bob and team were courteous and professional. They reopened a chimney breast that had been sealed for 60 years, kept the mess to an absolute minimum, and fitted everything we needed to burn wood and smokeless coal. Bob explained all we needed to know beginning with the construction process through how to properly lay a wood fire to minimize smoke. He is an excellent resource for everything about wood burning in your home. Highly recommend! (The image shows the drying plaster which has not yet been painted by us.)”

Highlights
“I would have no hesitation in recommending Bob and his team. They were very helpful and went above and beyond in completing the job and nothing was too much trouble.”
“Bob and his team were absolutely incredible, and I couldn’t recommend them highly enough. Our job was far from straightforward, with part of the chimney breast needing attention, but nothing was ever too much trouble for Bob. His knowledge and experience were immediately clear, and he gave me complete confidence that he was the right person for the job. The care, attention to detail, and expertise Bob brings to stove fitting is outstanding. Everything was completed to the highest standard, using top quality products throughout. Bob is a true professional and a perfectionist, and it really shows in his work. If you’re comparing quotes and unsure who to choose, go with Bob every time. You genuinely won’t regret it. He goes above and beyond to deliver good old fashioned customer service, and to top it all off, he’s an absolutely lovely person. Thanks so much to Bob and the whole team!”
Detailed reviews
Bob and his colleague did an excellent job of installing a wood burning stove at my property. The installation was quite complex and required a lot of internal and external work but it was finished within the agreed time-frame and the job was completed to a very high standard. Highly recommended.
Bob was professional, punctual and quoted me a reasonable price for the works. I contacted him late November and he managed to start and complete the job the following week, working in with me and around the other projects I was undertaking at the time. Managed to surprise my partner with the new stove and fully refurbished lounge in under a week. Top job!
Great work from Bob and his team. Needed a new log burner installed to meet new HETAS requirements. Quick installation, efficient and reliable team. Reasonably priced too. Highly recommend.
Very good, friendly and professional.
Great friendly service!

Very friendly and efficient Good service overall!
First class job, many thanks hopefully the end of our chilly nights 🥶🥶
Bob and his son Charlie were excellent. I’m an avid DIY’er but is was a pleasure to work with someone who knew what they were doing. I cobbler together the parts of the fireplace and Bob came and put it all together. Bob was great over WhatsApp with advise on adhesives to stick my fire surround back together. Would recommend.
Bob was very polite and explained everything very well and went through the operations of the stove and how to build the fire properly. He took care to arranged every stage of the work so that it was completed quickly and answered any questions that I had.
Quite a lot of extra work had to be completed in order to get the job done which was done at no extra cost and with little impact to the rest of the house.
Fantastic service very reliable professional service highly recommended Clean and tidy
