"The fire curtain has totally solved the problem we used to have of burn marks on the carpets surrounding the fireplace. We should have installed one years ago. " (B.L., UK)

"We are so pleased with the fender as it fits like a glove and blends in perfectly with the fire surround. I have to say that I am very impressed with the quality of the workmanship so well done indeed. I am not in the habit of sending e-mails like this so please take it as a great compliment! " (P.C., UK)

"Thank you for making a robust and perfectly finished bespoke size low level fender for a few quid more than the imported adjustable flimsy rubbish fenders. Money well spent. Excellent service from the initial sales enquiry through to delivery " (Torquay)

"Our fender seat is so beautiful and we are thrilled that it's a perfect fit. The workmanship and attention to details is superb. It has been such a pleasure working with you that we hate for it to end! You made the seat in under four weeks and then quickly turned around and shipped it out. I couldn't believe how easily it made it through customs. I ordered my furniture from the states, which is in storage, two weeks ago and the fender arrived first. My new home now sits with my first piece of furniture in it - the fender seat! We love it. Thank you so much. " (South Carolina, USA)
