Great service again, you literally couldn't fault the job they do, they are spotlessly clean whilst they work. Jack serviced our fire this year and he is a lovely fella just like Deri. Very happy to recommend again this year.

Deri supplied, fitted and commissioned a log burner for us. Polite, professional, kept us informed at all stages. Turned up when he said, worked like a trooper all day & made a fantastic job & a great explanation of all things log burners. If your looking for a professional job, give Deri a shout, I doubt you’ll be disappointed… Now had Deri & Jack back for several services… top job, clean tidy & professional

We purchased our woodburner from Calon Yr Adref after looking for a local business with a personal approach. They did not disappoint! Deri was quick to respond and very accommodating to all our needs. He sorted all the parts to create the perfect install and arranged postage for us. His service from start to finish was excellent. Everything went together a dream and was exactly right for the space. We would highly recommend supporting this growing business, they are fantastic folk! Thank you so much!

Jack came today instead of Deri, but was equally cheerful and efficient, and did a very good, thorough, clean job. Wholeheartedly recommend!
Osian Jones
Messaged to check if they covered my area to do a chimney repair. Unfortunately they didn't but Deri took the time to send a video explaining the steps he would take to try and resolve the problem. Didn't have to, but shows what a professional he is by doing it. Would highly recommend. Thanks again for the help
Carl Clement
