    Wood / Log Burning Stoves

    Posted 6 days ago

    Highly recommended

    Dutch was great and we really recommend him. From first reaching out to completing the job, we couldn’t fault him. We had to have an old gas fire disconnected ahead of wood burner installation so our dates were a bit unpredictable. He stayed in contact and when the start date arrived he was here early and had the work completed in the timeline promised. He was tidy, explained everything and completed the work to a high standard. He was great with our child too, chatting to him. We’re really pleased with the work and looking forward to being able to use the wood burner when it gets colder.

    Stoves Installer

    Posted 16 June

    Hassle-Free Stove Installation

    We had a log burning stove installed and it was such a hassle-free process. After surveying the fireplace, we were given recommendations on what size stove to buy for the room, and once we purchased the stove, we were booked in within a week. The installation took only 4 hours and everything was cleaning up and explained in detail afterwards. The stove looks so smart, we gave it a test run and everything worked fine. Absolutely no issues, would definitely recommend.

    Stoves Installer

    Posted 15 June

    Dutch is a certified Hetas installer of the highest quality.

    We have a multi fuel stove that was previously installed by an uncertificated installer. No problem for Dutch of the Old Victorian Chimney Sweep. He quietly went about the task of uninstalling our stove, installing a new flu liner and then reinstalling the stove again with check plate duly sealed. Back up on the roof he fitted a pot cowel to keep the birds out and made generous repairs to the weather damaged cement work around the base of the chimney pot. As promised our Hetas certificate arrived within two weeks. My wife and I couldn’t be happier at the outcome.
