Would highly recommend ELB Fireplaces, from initial showroom visit where Leon suggested options which we thought weren't possible, through to survey, regular communications and installation, the customer service and workmanship have been second to none! We are delighted with our electric stove and surround, it is everything we hoped for and more! Leon was knowledgeable, friendly and gave us lots of confidence that we'd chosen the right company and options for us. The 2 men who installed the fire (sorry don't know their names), were also very friendly, professional and did an amazing job with installing our fire, they worked extremely hard! Thanks to all at ELB Fireplaces! Kind regards Karen and Colin 👍🏻😊
We are very pleased with the service we received from ELB fireplaces in helping us pick our new fire surround and fire. Leon was very helpful in taking us through the features of the fire we were interested in and ensuring that our chosen fire surround could be made to the design we wanted but ensuring it was correct for our chimney breast. They were also very good at keeping us informed along the process and ensuring the fitting day was kept as agreed. We are very pleased with the end result and we will look forward to enjoying many years with this fireplace. Overall we were very happy with the service provided and the end result of our fireplace and would definitely recommend them to other customers.
We had our new log burner installed yesterday and we are absolutely OVER THE MOON! From entering the shop to enquire about it to having the burner fitted we have received 1st class service. We can't fault anything. The women working in the shop, Leon the owner and the 2 men who installed the burner were all brilliant. Would recommend to anyone!! 👍
Was debating on media wall and had a few quotes and so glad we choose ELB fireplaces. Leon came round gave honest opinion on options and great advice on what would be better even though it meant less of a sale for him. Really valued the frank and honest advice but the price was so competitive than other companies. After making decision the installation was quick and the final product was amazing. It looks amazing and really adds to the room. So happy with the service, aftercare and couldn’t be beaten on price. Would definitely recommend.
ELB were highly recommended by a Preston based competitor who concluded that we were geographically out of range ...and we're mighty pleased they did because ELB are a gem. A family firm in business for many years, they do what it says on the tin. Right from the off their product suggestions were sound. (They actually listened to what we wanted rather than pressing convenient alternatives.) Site reconnaissance was carried out by the MD and the fitters were absolutely excellent - tidy, efficient, professional, informative and polite. Thank goodness we were too far from Preston! First class service, competitive pricing and an excellent product. For a nice warm feeling ELB's the place to go. Rob Long
ELB did a fantastic job recommending a multi-fuel stove to fit in my existing fireplace, and installed it within half a day. It looks like it's been here forever I love it, and great clean up afterwards
Just had my log burner and fire surround fitted by ELB fireplaces. Great advice at beginning and helpful with the budget I had. The lads have done a brilliant job. Thrilled to bits and nice clean tidy job as well no mess at all. Thankyou can't wait to use it.
Can't thank Leon and the lads at ELB for all they have done the fire is amazing and the lads worked like trojans even though the weather was snowing and in the minus temps thanks for all your hard work can't praise you all enough 👍. Anybody who visits you will get a first class service from the choice of fire to the fitting 😀
I'm absolutely made up with our new fireplace. Leon was a great help in choosing the fire, hearth, mantle and surround and it was for an excellent price. The fitting team came very quickly after ordering and they were superb. Tom, Warren and Jason were very helpful, highly skilled and went above and beyond the call of duty in terms of services provided. They also left it spotless afterwards and the fire is ace, we love it. Thanks chaps.
Excellent service from first visiting the shop to installation. Lovely staff, all knowledgeable and helpful, handled all stages of the installation with professionalism and support. Beautiful fire and fireplace, the guys worked hard, are down to earth and trustworthy. Highly recommend this family run business for anyone considering a new fire. No hassle, no pressure.
ELB Fireplaces and Stoves recently installed our new gas fire and fireplace and we are absolutely delighted with both the finished product and the service that they provided. They gave us advice in the shop on the most suitable choice of product that met our requirements and then proceeded to give us a professional and commendable service throughout. Warren and Tom arrived punctually to install and were proficient, courteous and respectful in completing all aspects of the job. We can highly recommend ELB and the team.
We recently had a fireplace removed and replaced to a multi fuel log burner by ELB. Leon and his team did a fantastic job. We are so pleased with the look, it’s stunning and can’t actually wait for the cold months to set in to be able to use it. Can’t recommend them enough, excellent service with great guidance and support.
Fantastic family run business. The Showroom is amazing with so many fires to choose from. We were impressed with the customer service received, and love our new fireplace. Definitely recommend to anyone.
Great service from first visit to showroom to fitting yesterday. Excellent guidance and support throughout the process including site visit to liaise with other trades whilst extension was being built. This planning & co-operation all came to fruition as installation of a log burner went perfectly. Fitters were polite, professional and their attention to detail was first class. Thoroughly cleaned up on completion and we are delighted with the end result. Second time we have used ELB and had no hesitation in using them again, great service, cost and quality products, can thoroughly recommend. Thank you
Fantastic local firm with many years experience ELB looked after us from start to finish. They booked a date for fitting and arrived on time to remove our old fireplace and install the new one. Arrived on time. Did a great job. Friendly and very tidy. We are very happy. Looks great now but will be even better when we've decorated. Thanks to Leon my parents have benefited from our old surround. It looks so good with their log burner. He assessed it and had his team fit it for them. Thank you Leon and all your team. We would recommend you to anyone.
I am thrilled with my new fireplace from ELB. From the minute I stepped into the shop, the service from Leon and his team has been first class. Nothing is too much trouble, and the end result is a made to measure fireplace that is absolutely stunning. With the added bonus of not having to re-decorate as its fitted to perfection. Well done guys - can't recommend you enough!
Very happy from visiting the showroom , Leon coming out and checking preinstall . The three guys where great very pleased with install and communication ( only thing make sure you have kettle ready they like a brew ) joking apart lads where very friendly and helpful , highly recommend Leon and his team
I am absolutely over-the-moon with my experience from start to finish at ELB Fireplaces. After looking around for a while for a large fire for my media wall, I decided to call into ELB to have a look. Instantly I felt at ease; the displays were great and staff go above and beyond to help you - you really couldn't ask for better service. Also, a huge thank you to Leon for installing my fire - it's absolutely stunning! I couldn't recommend this business any higher and I will definitely be returning if I need another!
Called in at ELB Fireplaces as we were after a log burner. The staff were very friendly and so helpful. We decided on a fireplace that was in their showroom. The price was very competitive so we bit the bullet and went for it. The installation went ahead without any hitches and they cleaned up all the mess.. The job they’ve carried out is amazing. 1st class service . Highly recommend
Leon from ELB fireplaces has been really helpful from start to finish with site survey and advice about what to have along the way. Had my wood burning stove fitted today. Two lovely workmen been for two days and have survived a bitterly cold and wet day to finish an amazing job. Really pleased with the result. Thanks a million!
We had a log burner installed by ELB Fireplaces and can’t recommend them enough ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Absolutely quality service start to finish, really helpful and did an amazing job!
Cannot recommend highly enough! Leon went above and beyond for us, the level of customer service and after care is second to none! I have already recommended to friends who are also now using ELB and have had the same wonderful experience! Excellent value for money, wonderful customer care and first class products! Thank you ELB we are head over heels in love with our Contura Log Burner :)
We have had a Contura wood burning stove installed today, and we couldn’t be happier! ELB were fantastic from start to finish and have done a superb job. 100% recommend for a professional, friendly company who you can trust
Had our gorgeous electric fire fitted today and WOW it looks fantastic, makes a big difference to the living room. High quality finish, just perfect The fitters were brilliant and left the room really tidy. I had a problem with the measurements and Leon had it sorted within a few hours...can't praise Leon and all his team enough. They've gone above and beyond, we would 100% recommend them. We're so happy. Thanks guys
Highly recommend Leon and the shop and fitting team. I have deliberated for over 2 years whether to replace our gas fire which was a beautiful looking fireplace but only 20% efficient, therefore we never turned it on. We finally took the decision to remove it and have a Chesney stove fitted. Wow what a transformation, we have shifted from not using the lounge to loving the lounge. The fire is mesmerising to watch and heat is perfect. A huge thank you to the fitters, I didn’t want mess and I didn’t want to decorate as the wallpaper was still loved. Not a mark anywhere, usual dust but soon cleared. End to end amazing purchase. Yes it’s an expensive one, but well worth it for professional, safe, clean, reputable products.
Absolutely superb from start to finish. We recommissioned a chimney into an old cottage and Leon provided huge amounts of advice and guidance throughout the process. The fitting itself was a truly first rate professional service and I cannot recommend them highly enough.
Excellent from start to finish. A very friendly and helpful lady in the shop that didn't put me under any pressure whilst looking. A quick phone call from from Leon to discuss installation dates and then a quick and clean installation. I highly recommend this company. Thanks, Barry.
I cannot recommend ELB fireplaces enough. After being let down at the last minute by a supplier Leon was at our home within an hour to advise and survey what we would need. We were having an extension down so time was critical. Leon is very knowledgeable and will do everything he can to help. My wife and I are the very proud and happy owners of a log burner in the Contura range and are enjoying many warm, cosy nights. A HUGE thank you to ELB Fireplaces.
Fitted Wood Burning Stove yesterday arrived on time, the guys were totally professional and informative. Left our place spotless. Stove looks amazing. We’re looking forward to a long cold winter. Thanks ELB Fireplaces
Very professional setup came and did the survey and understood exactly what we wanted. Fitters arrived bang on time and got straight into the job which wasn't easy as they had to remove a very heavy 115kg Logburner and then sweep out the chimney before they could even start. The before and after pictures speaks for themselves! Thank-you Leon and The Team x
Wow ! What an experience! Local shop with local staff and tradesmen. A quality service from start to finish. First visit for the survey on time and ideas shared. Fitters that came on the day were excellent and were clearly happy with who they worked for. Clean and tidy and you wouldn’t have known they had been. Great value for money as I’ve had quite a at 10k plus. Everybody on time to complete the installation. Thanks ELB that’s how you do it! If there was six stars you’d have them. I’ll add more photos when decorated
Great service, easy to deal with. Changed fireplace and bricked up hole in wall with minimum disruption, all in the same day. New fireplace looks great.
Had our new gas fire fitted today and all of the guys were really good at their job. They cleaned up after themselves, had sheeted the floor etc and were cheerful and chatty. Young Jordan was a character, a lovely lad and all 3 of them were a pleasure to be around. The finished fire looks smart and the workmanship is faultless.
Just superb from beginning to end. Leon provided brilliant advice regarding an issue I had which worked perfectly and far better than I’d expected. The guys worked exceptionally hard and were amazingly skilled at their job. So glad I used a local firm and I very much doubt they could be beaten on price and workmanship. An outstanding job and I couldn’t recommend highly enough.
From start to finish they have been brilliant. First off they had the stove in stock that we wanted, other stores had an 18month waiting list. Then they came out and did a site visit to make sure it would fit in the new extension. Fitting was great, they were very flexible in the date as we had building work which needed to be done. Very tidy and ultra professional. Couldn’t recommend them enough
Had two fireplaces from ELB and they are fabulous. Leon was so knowledgeable about style and materials. Really supported us in helping us to decide what to go for. The result is stunning and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend these guys to anyone wanting a stunning fireplace.
Can recommend highly ELB Fireplaces of Leigh, from our first visit to the showrooms to the actual install it has been a pleasure dealing with them. Jordan and Jason from the team came to install the log burner. From first coming to the house, they were fantastic, and engaging after completing the work you couldn't actually tell they had been in the house leaving it tidy. The job was complete in a day and now have a lovely log burner. Would highly recommend ELB; for product choice, cost, speed of installation, and the team themselves.Thank you
. Big Thank you to Leon and all staff at ELB in LEIGH. Very pleasant people to work with. Got good advice in choosing the right model and fitters were very good leaving every where clean n tidy. We are really pleased with the result and attention we had all through the process. Would highly recommend ELB, with Special thanks to Leon
We had been talking about getting a log fire for a while. ELB was our first choice as its local and well known around the area. Jordan and Jason from the team came to install the log burner. From first coming to the house, they were fantastic, and took real care to be tidy both inside and out as we had only recently had a new deck done outside, and were in the process of laying new laminate inside. The job was complete in a day and we were able to start enjoying the log burner. Would highly recommend ELB; for product choice, cost, speed of installation, and the team themselves.
The service from start to finish was exceptional from the team. They are experienced and highly skilled at what they do. From advice and guidance on positioning and security to expert installation. Clean and tidy and friendly, polite and respectful. I can highly recommend this team
Absolutely thrilled with our log burner,from walking through the door in the showroom with the very friendly professional woman(sorry forgot her name) to Leon and his workers who are amazing at there work.Highly recommended and so glad we came to you with the recommendation from someone we knew.Thank you once again.
Top rate service from start to finish. We were recommended ELB by a number of people who had used them before. Sherry was great showing us the different options in the showroom and she followed up with other advice and support. When Leon came out to do the survey he clearly knew his stuff and presented us with different ideas and showed us pics of fire fits and media walls he’d done on our estate - ELB are clearly an established and popular business. They were patient when we needed to put our order on hold for a few months (and when we kept changing our minds!) and when we went ahead were really pleased with the final fit which was done quickly and with no fuss. The fire has finished our room off very well. The lads who did the fit were very professional as well. Great value, great service from a great local business.
Absolutely brilliant job, really professional and the log burner looks beautiful. Very happy with the result, it looks fantastic! If you’re looking for a lovely fire or log burner, then I’d recommend ELB.
Leon from ELB and John fitted our wood burning stove today. Great service, fast, friendly and very knowledgeable. Tested the fire and gave me a demonstration of how everything works. Leon then showed me how to light the fire. Great team.
What a great company and people at ELB Fireplaces. From start to finish it was a pleasure having Leon and his company on board to have a fire fitted. My journey was not a good one with two company's previous to ELB that would hard sell there fires and not order the fire that I had researched as they had never heard of even though its a big sell in Europe. One company after two months of waiting decided on the day of install insisted that he would like £6k first and then as I refused he dropped us but that's how he runs his buisness he said. ELB, we explained what we were looking for, fire and finish and this wasn't a problem. From the first visit with Leon I had a gut feeling that i had picked the right company, very knowledge in the world of wood burning stoves and I like to do buisness with a well established family run company as you get the great after care service, Leon would always be available if I was unsure about something and if I missed his call he would ensure to call me back. The team were excellent from Mike who built the fire breast to the two fitters who installed the fire and very professional. Leon has a great team around him and nothing was to much trouble, waste cleared and training given on care and use of the fire. My first review ever for Google but ELB deserve it. Thanks again Leon.
Leon & his team have installed two fireplaces now , both times me and my wife couldn’t have been happier with the service that we’ve been provided with and the final products . Always very respectful & tidy In our home . Would definitely recommend to other friends & family . Thank you !
Wonderful company, I did get a few quotes beforehand. However ELB we’re very efficient and advised me on the correct type of wood burner to go for.. Brilliant guys that fitted, they kept my house clean and super polite people.. Really happy with my new gorgeous fire..
Very easy to deal with from start to finish. They knew exactly what I wanted, adapted to my needs. From ordering in the shop to works at my home was all brilliant. Would highly recommend!
Amazing from start to finish. I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted when I first contacted Leon but we discussed it and he offered me different options. I eventually decided on a gorgeous electric fire but it would have been too wide for our chimney breast, but this wasn't a problem as Leon arranged for the sizing to be changed so it would fit and it looks amazing. The guys that came to fit the fire were really friendly and they were finished in no time at all. I can't wait to decorate now and we are looking forward to cosy winter nights in front of the fire. I would recommend ELB fireplaces to everyone.
made up with our new fire and surround,from the women in the shop to Leon, who took time out from his holiday to whats app us diffrent fires we could have, to the lads who installed it everyone so professional. Will highly recommend to everyone I know who requires a fire. Thank you to you all a 5 star company.
A very established outfit, this company came highly recommended to me and I decided to go with them after vetting a few firms, I visited the very well presented showroom to be greated by friendly competent staff who was able to provide me with all the information I needed with demos set up to look at. The installation team were very professional from start finish, answering all questions I had and comforted my concerns with they're profound knowledge. They left my home immaculate with utter respect for my property, absolutely 5 stars !!
Had fantastic service from start to finish and now have a log burner in our conservatory, meaning we’re already getting loads more use out of this room despite the cold weather. We love it and would absolutely recommend Leon and his team.
Excellent job done by Leon and the team. This is my 2nd fire done by them. Such a nice family run business with a personal but very professional service. I wouldn’t recommend anyone else.
Very impressed with my new media wall. The workmanship is second to none and all staff have been a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. Would highly recommend ELB.
Absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Leon gave us excellent advice to help us decide on fireplaces and log burner. The team who fitted it were very professional and ensured that work was completed quickly and to a very high standard. They cleaned up after themselves and involved us in any decision making throughout the process. Would highly recommend Leon and the ELB team.
We had a new fire and media wall installed in our living room. Top service from start to finish. Delighted with it and would definitely recommend.
Absolutely made up with our log burner. Quality service but also really sound products and fitting. The women in the office were so friendly. Leon is a dream and the lads who fitted the fire were very respectful and a pleasure to have in my home. Completely stress free work. I wish I needed another fire so we could do it all again. I will be recommending to all of our friends.
So pleased with our fireplace from ELB! It has literally transformed our living room. The service from Leon and his team was fantastic from start to finish. Very responsive, super helpful and high quality finish all round.
Terrific service all round. From initial contact, to the on site survey through to installation of our Chesney Salisbury 5 we have nothing but high praise for Leon and his team. The end result is superb and we are over the moon. Super friendly company and tradesmen and please do get in touch with them if you are looking for a stove, we can’t recommend them highly enough.

Excellent service, ELB go above and beyond with customer focus, the fire and surround is stunningly beautiful, quality and value with an attention to detail, the advise and knowledge given was impartial, helping us to create a visually magnificent centerpiece for our home.
Recently had a fireplace installed by ELB & very pleased with it.. The lounge is transformed with the colour changing electric fire with a wall mounted tele.. Initial hiccough with a non colour changing unit which was quickly sorted.. It is not cheap but the effect you get is worth it., All in all, great friendly service.. ??
ELB provided a professional service from start to finish. Their communication was outstanding - giving clear advice and guidance on what TV to purchase. All members of ELB who attended my property demonstrated a high level of professionalism and always went above and beyond - especially Leon with support from start to finish in selecting the correct fire / TV and TV Bracket. Overall an outstanding service and I am extremely happy with the outcome of the evonic fire media wall. I would highly recommend ELB Fireplaces.
I cannot recommend ELB enough. Highest quality and service from start to finish. Professional, personal and an amazing job done. The fitters were extremely friendly and explained everything. Would not go anywhere else :) very happy customer. Highly highly recommend....
A brilliant service from start to finish. I love my new fire and fireplace, Leon couldn’t have been more helpful in helping me decide what to have. He was incredibly patient with my 100’s of questions! The fitters were also really friendly and did a great job, including taking everything away and tidying up.
Excellent service! Leon and his team were ever so professional, efficient and tidy! The end results were amazing and we are so happy with our log fire. Couldn’t recommend ELB enough.
Fantastic service from this family based company. Great advice from Leon on selection of fire and fireplace, work carried out on the date promised, fitting team excellent - friendly, tidy, very skilled. Absolutely delighted with our white limestone fireplace and cast iron fire and insert. Really looks great in our lounge. Thank you for doing a great job. Highly recommend.
