“When designing our extension, we started looking at log burning stoves to create a feature. Having done a fairly exhaustive internet search where we discovered that anything out of the ordinary was frighteningly expensive and frankly not really what we were looking for, we were pointed in the direction of James the Firemaker by an acquaintance. A series of emails and telephone conversations followed during which we explained what we wanted and James showed us a number of suggestions. The requirement for a door created a few stumbling blocks but between us we came up with the rather unusual flap down door enabling the fire to become a stove instead of the rather less efficient open fire (a feature that did not seem to exist on anything else we could find in the swivelling circular fire market). Deposit paid and the fire ordered, we were given the specification for the supporting structure to be built into the ceiling and when the time came and the building work was almost complete, James delivered the fire and even assisted in the installation. The result is a fantastic fire which is the focal point of the room and a talking point for anybody seeing it for the first time. It was delivered on time and budget, the design is exactly what we wanted and the workmanship is superb. I would wholeheartedly recommend James for anybody looking for something out of the ordinary.”

“Faultless installation of a modern white Contura stove (choosing from a great range was the tricky part!) with glass hearth. Excellent service from start to finish including a tricky flue installation because of our roof layout. The finishing touch and focal point to a sun room extension. Great to know that we have a Defra approved stove that is efficient and sustainable.”

“George McAlpine Ltd have just completed the installation of new fireplace and Nu-Flame gas fire - 1st June 2015. The entire experience has been hassle free with the workmanship of the highest standard. We received professional advice and guidance during our visit to the showroom ( one of the most extensive in-situ display range of all companies - and we visited most before making our decision to commit). Appointments for removal and installation were all met, with advance calls to ensure we were at home. Work undertaken with no disruption and completed to highest possible standard. We have had several tradesmen in our home over the last few years undertaking a range of projects - this was the easiest due to the professionalism and care taken by the company. I would recommend them to anyone considering installing a new fireplace. Finally, the cost reflects the high standard of materials used and the professionalism of their staff. You may get your project priced lower by some of their competitors, but it will end up costing more in the long term. Mike Newton Mearns”

“Andy and the guys have a fantastic showroom in St. Andrews full of high quality stoves, fires and cookers. Always easy to work with and look forward to working together again soon.”

“Job was construction of stove recess, chimney lining, existing stove renovation and stove installation. The work was carried out very well with no additional charges for re-construction of the weak surround to the existing fireplace. Attitude was friendly and professional with an eye to making the job perfect. Would highly recommend.”

“We work with the Scottish Stove Centre on many of our projects. They have a huge range of high quality fireplaces.”
