Wood-burning Stoves
Wood burning stoves are a reliable source of heat which can radiate throughout a property. Modern wood burning stoves can be over 80% efficient, whereas open fires only reach around 20-25% efficiency. As of 2021, the government are planning to phase out any new installations of open fires and will be restricting specific types of fuel that can be used. This is all more the reason to install or convert any fireplaces to Eco-Design wood burning stoves for an efficient and clean source of heat.
If you are a home owner or Landlord, wood burning stoves can be an attractive centerpiece for a room or space which no doubt adds value to a property both aesthetically and financially.
Each installation varies from one another. From traditional Inglenook fireplaces to modern Gas fires that can be removed and replaced with solid fuel. Before every installation a full survey is undertaken in order to discuss options and possibilities. It is important to choose a stove that is suitable for the space the installation will be situated in, therefore we will do our very best to cater to your every need and give advice where necessary.
We also carry out all relative building work that is associated with an installation -
- Stone Masonry
- Brick Work

- Plastering

Prefabricated / Factory Made Systems
We are also registered to install Factory Made Systems. These would typically be used where there is no existing chimney. This type of chimney system can be installed externally or internally depending on the situation.
We are happy to advise on the feasibility and the best system to suit your requirements.Although we do not supply stoves ourselves, we can point you in the direction of our local suppliers who have a great selection of both appliances and accessories. We also have access to, or know many excellent bona fide trades people in the area including electricians and plumbers etc, should they be needed during the course of the work.

Stone Masonry
Stone masonry is a skill that has been running in the family business for many years. My dad (Jeremy Blythe) was an excellent stone mason and his work can be seen in many locations across north Somerset and the surrounding area. When we are not busy installing wood burning stoves (generally in the summer months) we turn our hand to this skill. From garden walls to barn restoration projects, there is no job too big. We take a lot pride in this work and you can also see our trademark in various jobs across Somerset.
