I recently purchased the Green Mountain Grills Davy Crockett pellet grill from Friendly Fires in Kingston. Although the grill was of great quality, I had an issue with my purchase. Steve Peters (Kingston store) took the time to make everything right within a week. You can buy great products anywhere but, the customer service I received through Friendly Fires was outstanding. I will be making all my future grill purchases through their company.
Everyone that see’s the grill asks where I purchased it and I do not hesitate to refer them to Friendly Fires. They will go above and beyond to make sure you are satisfied. Thank you very much Steve Peters and the staff at Friendly Fires.

Hi Curtis,
The cleaning of my Enviro Max pellet stove went really well. I was pleased with the service provided by Colin & John. I asked many questions, which they did not hesitate to answer nor were they irritated that I interrupted their work. They did a very thorough cleaning of the stove and did not leave a mess behind them. I know I made the right choice in purchasing a pellet stove from Friendly Fires. The staff have been very helpful and friendly to deal with from the process of finding the right stove to meet my needs, to the installation, to the first cleaning.
Thank you!

We were extremely pleased with the cleaning service given to our pellet stove and chimney and also with the pleasant nature of the two service personnel (Tim Houle & Duncan Rider) who carried this out!
Many thanks,

Dear Friendly Fires,
We bought a beautiful Napoleaon BBQ a while ago, to replace our wired together antique.
We were promised delivery for last Friday morning and I had the hamburgers ready to cook. It is so nice when a business actually delivers when it promises. Your men were here at 10:30, explained the essentials so we could understand and we had our new incredible cooking machine!
We bought it at your Peterborough store, where we had purchased a fireplace a year ago and again we were so pleased with our purchase. Also to have it assembled and delivered is such a plus.
I would also like to give credit to our young (we are in our mid 70’s so everyone seems young) saleman, who was excellent with patience, and good listening skills. I think his name was James.
Keep up the good work!

I would like to express my appreciation for the service I received for the purchase of my Enviro E20 gas insert fireplace. Eric was very helpful in helping me choose and meet my requirements. He also did a follow up to make sure I was happy.
The two fellows, Nigel & Jeremy were polite and very careful. I was impressed with their service. They took the time to make sure I understood all my questions. Thank you to these fellows.

Hi Brad,
Thanks so much for the solar-related information, I will check on my connection. I truly appreciate that your company continues to keep an eye on things for me. The old saying goes “you get what you pay for” and in your case that is so very true! I have been more than satisfied with every product or service that I have ever purchased from Friendly Fires.
Kindest regards,

Dear Eric,
I just wanted to take a moment to tell you how pleased we are with the purchase and installation of our new wood stove. A special thank you to you technicians David and Sean Strike. They are very professional, efficient, knowledgeable and personable young men. It was a pleasure dealing with them in my home. They worked non-stop to install the stove. They cleaned everything up and removed the debris. They even cut up some kindling for me so I could start my first fire. These two guys deserve a raise!
Again, thanks for your service and your great installers.
Regards,

Friendly Fires letter of Appreciation:
January 29, 2016
Dear Jason,
It’s not often I write a letter to complement a contractor, but after my experience
with Friendly Fires, I felt I did not have a choice. From the hospitality and
assistance from Gene de St. Croix in the Peterborough showroom to your
installers David Nelson and Sean Strike, I don’t think I’ve ever had a better
experience with the purchase and installation of an appliance for our house.
Your installers did everything, and I mean everything, right. They phoned me 30
minutes before arrival so I could be prepared, they put down drop clothes on the
floor and they went out of their way to ensure everything was kept neat and tidy.
Sean explained that he needed to go up into the attic to inspect the existing vent.
I told him that the attic was very confined due to the trusses and that he probably
could not see much but he insisted on trying. He discovered that the vent was
dislodged and that the new fireplace would have vented directly into the attic. I
joked to him that he just saved our lives but I was only half joking. And then after,
he asked if he could borrow my vacuum cleaner to cleanup a bit under the attic
hatch. I told him not to bother and that I would clean it up later. Well, when later
came I went to the attic hatch only to find that Sean had picked up the bits and
pieces of attic insulation and left the area totally cleaned.
David did an excellent job explaining the whole installation process as he
progressed and at the end went through the operation manual and use of the
remote.
Both installers had an eye for detail which included spray painting the existing
vent pipe to match the stove colour. They ensured that I was totally satisfied with
the installation and operation of the stove before they left.
I would, without any doubt recommend Friendly Fires to any one interested in
purchasing a new fireplace or stove. I have already started spreading the word to
our friends.
Thank you Friendly Fires and a big thank you to Gene, David and Sean.
Yours truly,
Michael Brooks
