From the moment we entered Alfred Poppins shop Alfred’s advice, knowledge and passion for wood burners shone through. He guided us through the ideal wood burner we should go for. He advised us on a feature slate wall which we went for. We had no vision on what to do but he knew what would suit our home. The finished product is amazing. We are thrilled. Alfred’s team installed our burner and feature wall professionally they were clean, tidy and took their time in fitting the burner. Great team Alfred. We love our burner. Finally, the after care you’ve shown is second to none. great job. Would recommend Alfred Poppins to anyone. Our picture is on his website for anyone interested. It’s the one with a slate wall.
