I felt obligated to express our extreme satisfaction with the stove installation provided by Chris and Joe this past Tuesday. They were very knowledgeable, courteous and represented their company in a professional manner. I would recommend our experience to anyone.

Hi Lorraine,
I just wanted to commend the two men (Duncan and Gill, I believe) for their professional and courtesy approach to my installation. Also to Michael for his advice and help. They are a credit to your company and should be recognized accordingly.
Please pass on my sentiments to your management/owners.
I will definitely refer your company whenever the opportunity presents itself.

Hi Duane,
As a follow-up to your courtesy call after my service appointment, I would just like to comment on my experience with Friendly Fires.
First I must say, it was my good fortune to have run into you Duane. And to have met your terrific Technician, Kyle, who was pleasant, knowledgeable, professional and got the job done (where many had failed before him)! I also had conversations with Andrea and Jason who were both very nice, professional and patient!
As you are aware, unfortunately I purchased my Valor Fireplace from another store (my misfortune, I thought I was out of your servicing area.)
I dealt with the owner for three and a half years (it was not pleasant). There were many costly service calls, a ton of excuses why the fireplace kept going off (obviously none of them were valid). All I wanted was my brand new fireplace, which they installed, to work. (In my opinion, it was not installed properly from the get go.) They just were NOT QUALIFIED to do the job.
In comes FRIENDLY FIRES TO THE RESCUE. Once again, I must say how knowledgeable your technician was. Kyle knew his product and got the job done!!
You can be 100% assured that I will be recommending Friendly Fires to everyone I know (and to do themselves a favour, stay away from the competition!!!!)
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
Sincerely,

“Your service representatives, Duncan and Gil (Gilles), came to advise us on
January 10th about moving a Westport gas stove from one room to another. My
wife and I were most impressed with these young men. Their interpersonal
communication was excellent. They were attentive, informative, unrushed,
and knowledgeable – if they didn’t have an answer to a question, they would
refer to their manual for technical information, or to management for
pricing issues.
“As Gilles himself said, “I think the company is very honest, and they treat
me with respect!” We would be very pleased to have these two gentlemen in
our home, or that of clients at any time. We highly recommend them.”

Hi Alex,
THANK-YOU VERY MUCH!!!
The fan arrived on Friday and we have been using it for the past few days.
Although it does not circulate quite as much air as the original one – IT IS VERY QUIET – much better than the last one!
As always, Cheryl and I really appreciate you and your company. You are one of the few companies still providing excellent customer service. We will continue to refer you to anyone looking for a fireplace, wood stove or appliances.
You have gained a customer for life!
Sincerely,

Good day! I would like to take the time and tell you how happy I am with the service person (Alex Vincent) you sent out to look at my EF2 pellet stove. I have owned pellet stoves now for 15 years and to date, the technician you had sent had to be the best trained in this field. He worked on my stove which I thought I was going to have to replace. He took it apart and cleaned it better then anyone else has before and got it working as good as new. You should be very proud of having a member like that on your team – please thank him again for the good work!

Dear Hayley,
Thank you and all the staff at Friendly Fires for making it possible for us to have this wonderful new Pacific Energy Super 27 woodstove. It is awesome! We appreciated your patience and good humour throughout the sales process.
Take care,

Hi Michael,
Called your office today but it was your day-off so I made a payment with one of your colleagues. Wanted to tell you that we really like the Pacific Energy Super 27 wood stove, it pumps out lots of heat. The installers did a great job.
Thanks very much for your help.
