Best overall fireplace installer in Telford: AGA and range-cooker servicing with stove fitting

Active

Trading as MULTIFUEL COOKING & HEATING LIMITED · Ironbridge · Service area: Telford, Ironbridge, Shrewsbury

Multifuel Cooking & Heating in short

Multifuel Cooking and Heating Limited works from Ironbridge, pairing AGA, Rayburn, Stanley and Esse cooker care with boilers, flue lining and wood-burning stove fitting. Shropshire is its patch, with Telford and Shrewsbury named among its stove towns, and the owner carries out the work himself. The firm claims close to three decades in the trade with two industry awards behind it, and the company record shows it active since the early two-thousands.

Stove fitting uses HETAS-certified staff, with a home survey before any recommendation and what the firm describes as a fully insured installation service. Enquiries run through an appointment form with a choice of service, backed by a landline and a mobile, and the books stay open Monday to Saturday with late opening at the weekend. Servicing visits run any day of the week, which suits a cooker that cannot wait for a weekday.

Customer evidence is the firm's calling card: full marks across dozens of Checkatrade reviews, carrying a one-year guarantee standard, beside a perfect but tiny Google set. Both records were seen in early September, so the picture is fresh rather than historic. The small Google base is the thin corner of an otherwise strong record.

Our view is that this firm suits an AGA or range-cooker owner who wants stove fitting from the same hands, particularly around Ironbridge and Telford. What counts against it is unpublished prices and no stated Gas Safe cover for the gas boiler and flue work the site advertises. Both gaps sit in paperwork rather than workmanship.

Questions about Multifuel Cooking & Heating

Where does Multifuel Cooking & Heating work?

The firm works from Ironbridge across Shropshire, with Telford and Shrewsbury named among its stove-install towns. Most borough addresses fall inside its patch for cooker servicing and stove work. Send your postcode with details of the appliance and photos of the fireplace, and ask for a visit slot that covers your street. Ironbridge and the Gorge villages sit closest to its base.

Is Multifuel Cooking & Heating HETAS certified?

HETAS-certified staff are stated on the stove installation page, and every stove recommendation starts with a home survey. The HETAS register itself could not be searched, so membership cannot be sourced from the register. Ask for the certification details alongside your written quote, and keep the paperwork with your house file once the job is signed off.

What does Multifuel Cooking & Heating charge?

No price list, rates or call-out fee are published, though the Checkatrade profile lists free estimates and no VAT registration. Cooker servicing and stove jobs are quoted per job after the survey. Send your job details through the appointment form with photos, then ask for an itemised fixed quote showing labour and materials apart.

How do I get a quote from Multifuel Cooking & Heating?

Use the appointment form and choose your service, or call the landline or mobile; the books run Monday to Saturday with late Saturday opening. Describe the appliance, its age and any fault, and attach photos of the fireplace and flue. Ask for the survey date and the install dates as one written timetable before work starts.

What do Multifuel Cooking & Heating reviews say?

The record we hold runs to two sources: full marks across dozens of Checkatrade reviews with a one-year guarantee standard, beside a perfect but tiny Google set. Both were seen in early September, so the picture is fresh. Read the stove reviews first, then the servicing ones, and set them against the written quote.
