    Seamless process by Fabulous team

    We are absolutely over the moon with the new fireplace, it has transformed our living room. We went to Wakefords as it is close to us. We spoke with Adam who was extremely knowledgeable and very friendly. He explained the whole process in great detail and showed us all the options. He didn’t try and hard sell anything and we felt very comfortable with his sales approach. We chose a fireplace we liked, having spent a week looking at the brochures and the fireplace was fully installed within a month. The whole team, Adam, Alex the fitter and Stewart the plaster were amazing. A fabulous company.

    Gas Fire Servicing / Repair

    Posted 24 May

    Gas Fire Service

    We contacted Wakeford Fireplaces after struggling to find anyone who could service our gas fire, and Adam and Clare could not have been more helpful. They arranged for a gas fitter to visit very quickly, and Andrew serviced the fire efficiently and professionally. The whole process was straightforward, and the price was very reasonable. We’d happily use this local company again and would definitely recommend them to others.

    Highly recommend

    I couldn't be happier with the service from start to end. I tried another company a few years ago who said they couldn't fit a wood burner in my fireplace and it is too small, so I tried again with Wakeford who said it would be no problem. The wood burner was fitted in 3hrs and the end result looks neat and professional, including changing some stone in the fireplace which was matched perfectly (I didn't even notice the difference). Adam has a solution mindset and is super responsive. I highly recommend.

    log effect gas fire replacement

    An excellent experience with Wakeford Fireplaces . Adam and Clare were extremely helpful in advising us on a fireplace that suited our needs, and the service from survey to fitting was professional and efficient. Alex carried out the installation with great care, ensuring everything was safe and improving the safety of our existing fittings. We are delighted with the finished result — a remote-control log effect gas fire that’s really transformed the living room.
