The fire place was sealed with bricks by the previous owner. We want to open the fire breast to house a wood stove. I've attached a picture of the fire breast and a picture of the way we want it to be. (the floor-standing electric heater has been removed). https://www.dropbox.com/sh/opbm4fgobvcm88c/8Vwtz4knZ1
Positive Review for I&o.decorators &general Builders on 3rd Sep 2012
I asked Ivan to open the chimney breast to make space for wood stove and log store. Before the chimney breast was open, no one knew what's in it. But my engineer's instinct told me that, among all contenders, Ivan knew what he was talking about the most. On the day of work, he came with the right tools and completed the job in no time. Ivan is a very pleasant person, so is his assistant who kept the work place tidy. Good team. Excellent in my case.
