What our previous clients have said

I cannot tell you how excited I was to have our Wood Burner and Beautiful Hearth fitted infact my husband was convinced they could not meet my expectations may I say they totally excelled them.
From the moment we met Matt he was so knowledgeable, informative and patient and made us feel very confident with our choices, etc.
Matt and his team were very professional, clean and tidy, covid friendly with serious attention to detail.
Our Wood Burner is the focal point of our refurb in our lounge and is admired so much, we absolutely love it.
Thank you Matt

Patricia And David Heaton Mersey

The Stove & Stone Co has recently completed an installation of a Termatech stove in our house and we are very pleased with their work, it looks brilliant and will do the job of keeping us warm over the winter months! I’d highly recommend Matt and and the team for their quality of: advice given, communication, competitive price and workmanship. Thanks again, James.

James Milne, Didsbury

I’m delighted with the work Matt and the team did. The wood burner installation went very smoothly. The team left the house in a very tidy state. They were friendly, hard working and respectful too. The wood burner looks great and is a real addition to the house. I can recommend.

Mark Urmston

We have had our Clear Vision stove in our new extension for nearly 2 months now. There was no chimney and the double lined external flue needed to go on the outside gable wall. Matt and his colleagues (which included a cherry picker) completed the job in just over a day. They were quick, on time, clean and very efficient. Matt kept me up to date on what he was doing and spent time once the installation was completed to show me the best way to light the stove and what fuel to use. We are delighted with the result and it’s really is the highlight of our new room. We have another smaller stove in another room and we will be using Matt to source a new stove and fit a replacement during the summer. First class service, really great team. Would highly recommend.

Maria Boylan - Whalley Range

Matt and the team fitted our 800w burner. It looks amazing! They did a great job overall and have helped to transform our living room. The team were all very friendly, tidy and worked hard throughout the day. We found Matt to be very professional from start to finish and wouldn’t hesitate in recommending him. Thank you!

Tom and Demi

Matt fitted my Clock stove in a day and was extremely friendly, helpful and accommodating. The stove worked perfectly and Matt guided me through the instructions. I would highly recommend this company. Thanks again!

Jimmy O'Shea

Just recently had my brand new stove fitted by Matt and his team. Matt was amazing and so helpful from the day of the initial survey until after fitting had been completed. He helped with choosing the perfect stove and the finished job is amazing. I’m so happy with it and it’s all ready to go in time for winter. I would definitely recommend Matt and The Stove & Stone. Really happy!!

Kim in Offerton

Thanks Matt & team I love my wood burner stove. The service from the stove and stone company was excellent. Matt talked me thought the process and was prompt providing a quote (very competitive) and installing my stove. Nothing was too much trouble. Very personable people down to earth. I’d recommend to others. 10/10 don’t think I could have picked better.

Sharon from Old Trafford

We were introduced by our daughter and son in law who had previously had a log burner installed by Matt. Reading through previous testimonials it became clear that the standard of workmanship was to a high standard. Matt and his team arrived on the dot as arranged and following a briefing, works commenced. The old fire place was removed, new chimney liner installed, opening lined with fireboard, install stove on a beautiful piece of Yorkshire sandstone. Commissioned, certified and a carbon monoxide alarm fitted. As previously mentioned by other customers, the standard of workmanship was excellent, all debris removed off site and apart from the new stove you wouldn’t have known they had been.
A big thank you to Matt and his team and will not hesitate to recommend you to others.

Steve & Julie - Hazel Grove, Stockport.

If you are looking for someone to install a wood burner look no further Matt and his team have done a fantastic job of ours we love it highly recommend.

Phil and Margaret Romiley

Matt and Chris were very professional from start to finish and made a potentially messy job as neat and tidy as possible. As I was a stove virgin gave me lots of good advice to get the best out of the stove. A really impressive improvement to the house. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Jimmy Mottram

Matt and the team provided an excellent service. They were quick, tidy and polite whilst installing the fire in our home. The price was very competitive and Matt was very proffessional to deal with. Highly recommend.

Mr & Mrs Challinor

Very happy; Matt fitted our stove and a flue liner few years ago and it’s been brilliant. He was the obvious choice to amend our chimney after some building work. Great quality, quick response and friendly approach throughout despite us giving some tricky deadlines.

Very happy and highly recommended

Tony - Stockport

From the first call to discuss what I wanted to the last re how to get the fire going Matt was exceptional in both knowledge and customer services. The job was done to very high standards and exceeded my expectations. They were clean and left house immaculate. I would highly recommend. His website is very professional. Lovely guy and team. Huge thanks Matt.

Paula Glynn. Glossop

Matt and his team completed all the work in one day including opening up the chimney, boarding out the chimney walls, installing the oak beam and installing the flue and stove. Extremely clean and tidy, bagged up all waste and removed to skip we provided.Very competitive quote, first class workmanship and extremely reliable. Can highly recommend.

Ross Thompson - Romiley

Matt and his team installed a log burner and flue in our living room. They were prompt, friendly, hardworking, professional and efficient. Matt was meticulous and they are fantastic honest guys to which I have no hesitation in recommending. Thanks Matt.

Denis & Helen wales- Gee cross, Hyde

Having never had a stove before, it was all a bit of a mine field for us, trying to work out what kind of stove would fit and how to design a finished look – that was until we spoke to Matt. Matt come round and listened to what we were after and advised us what our options were. His quote was fair and we felt confident that we’d been well advised and made the right choices. Matt and his team fitted the fire, hearth and beam on the agreed date, all mess was cleaned up and we were shown how to use the stove. We are absolutely made up with the work they’ve done, the wood burner is defiantly a fab addition to our home. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Matt if you’re looking to have a stove fitted.

Clancey - Bramhall

Matt and his team took on a fairly complex job to remove my old gas fire, open out the fireplace, fit a wood burning stove but preserve the existing marble surround.
They completed the work quickly and efficiently with a great deal of care. I’ve still no idea how they managed to remove and then refit my expensive marble surround so perfectly.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Matt to anyone thinking of installing a stove as I’m delighted with the results.

Dr J - Bramhall

It’s been almost a year since Matt installed my stove and I am still as delighted with the stove and the quality of the installation as I was when Matt first completed the work.

When I found Matt of The stove & stone Co. the endless searching for the right stove and the right style of installation came to an end. Matt inspired confidence from the very beginning. When we first met, he arrived with all the necessary supporting materials, showed me pictures of previous installations and then took me through the installation process step by step. He even suggested a stove and in spite of all the research I had done before I am glad I went with his suggestion.

The installation went without a hitch in spite of the fact that my house is unusually tall. Matt created a beautiful niche for the stove and fitted a slate hearth covering the entire niche – all at his suggestion and all to my total delight. He really has an eye for what looks good and delivers exceptional quality. The installation was completed in two days and at the end the room looked as clean as it did before he started.

I wholeheartedly recommend Matt and The stove & stone.

Angelika Smitham - Didsbury

Matt fitted a stove for us and did an excellent job. He and his colleagues completed the work ahead of schedule and were very neat and polite. Matt talked us through what he would do and managed to retain our original fireplace and incorporate it into a new surround for the wood burner. Will be recommending Matt to my other friends looking to have a burner fitted great guy and honest.

Maria George - Stockport

Really happy with the whole service from start to finish, very professional approach, they worked quickly and cleanly and tackled a daunting project very well with no problems at all. Very happy to recommend Matt and his team to anyone

Robert Frier - Sale Cheshire

Matt re-installed 2 very large, original, refurbished marble firplaces, with new tiled hearths and 2 new log burners (AGA and Stovax) as well as 2 large victorian slate fireplaces (decorative only) into 2 bedrooms on new polished slate hearths with new tiled inserts. I cannot over emphasise what a fantatstic job he has done on all 4. He also recommended some great guys who refurbished the 2 marble fireplaces off-site, including one which resembled at best a pile of rubble and miraculously is now a stunning marble fireplace. Extremely honest and trustworthy guy who I have recommended for other jobs to friends. You won’t find another fitter in the Manchester area whose attention to detail is as good.

Andy aiken - Marple
Matt has just completed a 3 day job for us, which entailed the design and build of a new chimney breast to house a log burner. He also fitted a limestone mantelpiece, and renewed all necessary coving and skirting. The job was completed on time, and was absolutely perfect. His work is first class, and he and his colleague were a pleasure to work with – polite, courteous and very professional. I was recommended to Matt by a friend, and my experience was such that I would unreservedly recommend his services to anybody else. Thank you and very, very, well done Matt!
Patrick & Debra Murphy - Wilmslow

We had a Clearview stove fitted by Matt and Gary and we are absolutely thrilled with the results. The quality of the work they carried out is exemplary. Although we knew the removal of an old fireplace in a small terraced house was going to be an extremely dirty job, and one which we were dreading, Matt and Gary managed to keep the mess to a minimum with as little disruption as was feasible considering the circumstances. They were polite and cheerful, hardworking and professional. The job was started and finished in the time that Matt gave us when he provided his estimate and I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Matt, Gary and The stove & stone Co to anybody. Many thanks for a job well done

Bob and Orla Rawlinson - Altrincham

We recently had two multifuel burning stoves fitted by Matt and Gary from The stove & stone Co. We had a very professional service from the initial survey right through to the lighting of our stoves!
We had two chimney breasts knocked out and both flues relined but it was minimal disruption and the end result was far beyond our expectations – we are thrilled with the results.
All the advice given was excellent – we would not hesitate to recommend The stove & stone Co.

L & M Hart - Sale, Cheshire

The stove & stone Co. installed a beautiful AGA stove for us just in time for Christmas. Matt was very professional and ensured the job was absolutely to our satisfaction. Even the discovery that the existing fireplace had been set in solid concrete didn’t deter him! He ensured the existing fireplace was carefully removed, as we are having it restored for use in another room, then set about the physical work. He’s back in a few weeks to create a beautiful open fire in our lounge. Highly recommended.

Si and Jo - Hale

Matt and his team did a very professional job when installing both our inset burner & tiled fireplace. Very happy with the result and the short time it took to perform the installation. Lots of good advice also for use & maintenance.

Justin Wildgoose - Heaton Mersey

Matt and his colleague lined my chimney breast and installed a flue pipe and woodburning stove. They were reliable, firendly, efficient and tidy. They did an excellent job and I would highly recommend them. Matt managed to fit me in at an extremely busy time of the year and didn’t rush the job in the slightest. Matt and his colleage gave me a clear explanation of how to use the stove and answered any queries/worries I had. I am very happy with my new woodburner. Thank you.

Jane Goodwin - Stockport

I would recommend Matt and his team to anyone. He provided an excellent service, was efficient and very helpful.

I got several quotes before we chose The stove & stone Co. Matt gave us a competitive quote and I felt confident he would do a great job- which he did.

Beth Mccan - Edgeley, Stockport

Matt installed an open fire and mantle in our Lounge earlier this year which we are ‘over the moon’ with. So much so we asked him back a couple of weeks ago to install a stove, liner & mantle in our hall. Yet again he didn’t let us down! He is one of the very few work men we’ve experienced who actually did what he said he would, when he said he would! He arrived on time, was professional in his work & answering any questions we had (even weeks after the install nothing was too much trouble), he was tidy during the installs and we were happy with the cost. We’ve one left to do in our dining room and we’ll have no hesitation in using Matt again for this….Thanks again Matt for the excellent work.

Lisa Pownall - Mile End, Stockport

Matt and his colleague were very professional in fitting our stove. They did the work quickly and efficiently, high quality workmanship and excellent result. Cleaned up afterwards and called back to check everything was okay. We’d recommend him.

Dave & Alison - Withington

Matt and helper fitted our stove and hearth in March. After being messed about by other installers, Matt promptly surveyed the job, offered advice, issued estimates and scheduled the work. As well as the fitting, he knocked out the existing raised hearth, squared off the opening and dropped a liner in. All the work was done to excellent standards with all mess taken care of and only took a day to complete! I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Matt to anyone.

Simon Hardisty - Romiley

Having wasted a lot of time looking for the right fitter we chanced upon Matt and have been extremely impressed. Not only was the job completed speedily and tidily but we were also given great advice and nothing was too much trouble. We were very happy with the finished job and would strongly recommend Matt to others. We had a Stovax Stockton 7 inset convector with honed granite hearth and oak mantle installed with a new chimney liner and ventilation grille.

James - Cheadle Hulme

Matt installed two wood burning stoves in our newly renovated home. I was keen to ensure that we could achieve a flawless finish and spent a long time researching the different stoves and the final look I wanted. Matt understood exactly what we were looking for and gave us fabulous ideas as to how to improve the final finish. He was able to recommend the best stove for our needs and well as the best way to install them to achieve a striking centrepiece for our new rooms. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Matt. He did exactly as promised and we are delighted with his work.

Maryam - Liverpool

Matt and Gary did a fantastic job fitting the stove and flu in our front room. Very hardworking and professional ending in great results. Matt was able to offer lots of advice and guidance during the survey and even provided a demonstration once the stove was fitted. I would definitely recommend Matt to anyone looking to install a stove in their home.
Thanks Matt!

Natalie and Ary - Bredbury

Not your typical workman! End to end advice, polite, friendly, trustworthy considerate to your needs, fitted with our very tight schedule, all done in two days and the final result have transformed our living room. What more could you ask for… oh, competitive pricing too! Thanks Matt.

Alex Komlosy - Heaton mersey

Matt and his colleague did a fantastic job. Stove was fitted in 1 day – even though the fitting was more complicated than originally planned. The job involved removing an old fireplace, fixing the collapsed chimney breast, fitting a new flue pipe and chimney pot, and installing the new stove. They left the room clean and tidy, clearly explained how to use the stove and we’re very pleased with the results. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Matt to others. Just keep them topped up with tea and coffee and your stove will be fitted in no time 🙂

Steve & Sue - Stockport

Matt has recently fitted a granite hearth and modern looking Stovax dual fuel burner in our new extension. To say we are delighted would be an understatement. During Matt’s pre-installation survey he answered all questions confidently and without hesitation immediately inspiring confidence in his ability to undertake the work. The result speak for themselves and I would have no hesitation in recommending him to friends and colleagues.

Ian & Kirsty - Timperley

Matt and his co-worker installed a flue and fireplace in our living room. They were prompt, friendly and efficient whilst giving particular attention to detail. Despite being a messy job house was left clean and tidy. Overall an excellent job at a very reasonable price. Would highly recommend! Will be asking Matt back to do our dining room. 10 out of 10!

Amy and James - Stockport

I thought installing a stove would be a messy and a long process, but Matt was very tidy and done within a day. The finish is excellent and he even talked me through the different ways to use my designer stove. As a novice I did not know what equipment I needed to go with my new stove,Matt helped me buy the correct equipment to cut logs and store wood. Thank you Matt

patrick claffy - Didsbury

As soon as Matt came to survey our chimney, we knew he would do an excellent job. He gave us lots and lots of sensible, practical advice and helped us make sure the stove we were sourcing would be suitable. Very quick, professional work, and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking to fit a fire.

Katie Colledge - Sale

Matt fitted my fireplace last week and I am really pleased with the results. Before he fitted the fireplace, he visited me at home and gave ideas and suggestions about both stoves and solid fuel open fires and what would look good in my room. I decided on a solid fuel open fire. On the day Matt fitted the fire, he collected the one I had chosen from the showroom and the fire was fitted by the lunchtime! Both matt and his co worker worked really hard and the results were fantastic. They were both really polite and friendly and a pleasure to have in the house. Once they had finished, they cleaned up the room and didn’t leave any mess at all (it is very dusty work so it was great how clean it was all left!). I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend matt to anyone wanting a fireplace fitted.

Cathy - Withington

Matthew lined our existing chimney after we discovered a smoke leak. We didn’t have to wait long for Mathew to fit us into his schedule, and were impressed with the speed and standard of work done. Lovely honest guy, and we would not hesitate to recommend or use his service again in the future.
