Testimonials
Brent did a professional job of refurbishing our Victorian fireplace. Looks like new. Very professional chap, no mess, no fuss. Highly recommended.
I had a new fireplace and fire installed by Embers. I cannot praise the customer service and workmanship enough. Embers coordinated everything for me including electricians and plasterers and the workmen in my home were the best I have ever dealt with. Efficient, clean, friendly, fun, and so helpful.
The quality of work was excellent; issues and remedial action were explained as they occurred. As a project it was to time, to budget, to specification, resulting in a happy customer.
I would like to say thank you for the services provided and I'm glad that I chose to go with Embers. Brent came to do the initial visit and site survey that gave us our quote. I found him to be knowledgeable, informative, and candid throughout.
