One of the loveliest things about running a family business for so many years is this…
Some customers become so much more than customers. ❤️

Ronnie is one of our favourites - and NOT just because over the years he has cooked and brought us some of the most incredible jerk chicken and festival dumplings known to mankind 🔥😂 but because he is just one of LIFE’S good people.

Warm. Genuine. Interesting. Kind.

Every time Ronnie pops in, we end up chatting for ages - about life, family, work, the world, all the things he’s done and seen. He always asks how everyone is. He always takes the time.

Honestly, that says everything about the type of customer base we’ve built over the years. It's the really lovely thing about word of mouth - lovely customers recommend lovely customers.

So when we opened our emails this morning and read this message from Ronnie, it genuinely stopped us in our tracks:

“Abbey Fire Centre is not simply about location, it is about your attitude, your integrity, and your customer focus.”

We honestly can’t tell you how much that meant to us all. Especially during a time that has felt emotional, uncertain and bittersweet in so many ways.

Because yes, we may be leaving the premises we’ve called home for 45 years - but the relationships, the trust and the community we’ve built? That comes with us.

So thank you, Ronnie. For your support, your kindness, your loyalty… and your cooking 😂🔥

We can’t wait to welcome you into the new office in Boldmere for a posh coffee very soon. (Although we’ll happily still accept dumplings too.)

We have just ONE ex-display stove left in the showroom that needs a new home! It is the fabulous Solo 5 log burner from Symphony Fires. We've had it on display for only around four months so it's had very light usage, but it dies mean it will be a bargain price!

RRP £1150 inc VAT, Ex-display price will be £600.

Please share, share, share for anyone who would like a bargain and to help us get it gone!

It will be available this week 🔥

Never in the history of log burner installations has anyone decorated this quickly 😂🔥

Honestly, we installed this log burner in Sutton Coldfield, and within TWO WEEKS we had these photos through from the lovely customer with the paint-stained dog (IYKYK) - who, by the way, will forever be remembered in Abbey Fires history 🐶🎨

And LOOK at it 😍

This is why we always bang on about the finishing touches - the décor, the styling, the little details - they make such a difference and completely bring the fireplace and log burner to life.

We also need to talk about this review because reviews like this genuinely mean the world to us:

“Fantastic family business, no hidden costs, excellent customer service and installation. Would highly recommend anyone looking to have a log burner - look no further, you won't be disappointed. Thank-you for my dream fire x”

Firstly - Thank YOU, Amanda ❤️
�Secondly - former customers, this is your warning… I may start knocking on doors asking for updated photos because clearly some of you have been holding out on us for YEARS 😂

Seeing our log burners and fireplaces become part of your homes never gets old🔥

Some news is hard to write. This is one of those posts.

After 45 years in Erdington, Abbey Fire Centre is moving.
�Not because we wanted to.
Not because business is slowing down.
But because our landlords are redeveloping the site, and it’s time for us to start a new chapter.

When one of our lovely customers, Ronnie, emailed us after hearing the news, he said something that really stuck with us…

“Don't lose sight of the fact that Abbey Fire Centre is not simply about location, it is about your attitude, your integrity, and your customer focus.”

And he’s right.
This business has never been built on flashy marketing, sponsored ads, or sales campaigns. It’s been built on word of mouth. On recommendations. On customers telling their friends and family, “Go and see them, they’ll look after you.”
Which means more to us than you’ll ever know.

Because whilst the location may change, we haven’t.
�Same family.
Same values.
Same honesty.
Same banter.
Same care.
Same obsession with getting things right.

We’re still HERE ❤️🔥

From June, we’ll be based in Boldmere, working by appointment only - and honestly, this move reflects how much the business has naturally evolved over the last few years, because, yes, fireplaces are still the biggest part of what we do, but many of you already know we’ve quietly become the people you call for far more than that…

Cabinetry. Panelling. Renovations. Bespoke projects. Problem solving. Occasional marriage counselling when couples can’t agree on tiles 😂.

We’ll share more on that soon.

For now, we just want to say thank you.
�To every customer who has supported us, recommended us, left us reviews, popped in for a chat, or trusted us in your homes over the years.

45 years and still thriving in one place is special.
�But we genuinely believe the best part of Abbey Fire Centre was never the building.

It was, and is, the people in it and who have gone before us. We hope we’ve made you proud Dad🤍

🔥 NO CHIMNEY - NO ISSUE🔥

We'll build you one! Our lovely customers have moved into a house where there is no chimney - instead a very long living space which was crying out for a focal point that wasn't the telly!

So we created a chimney breast that gave a little bit of shape to the room, positioned in such a way that if they decide in a few years they would rather have gas, they can fit a blanked flue gas stove, but for now it houses the wonderful Huntingdon 30 electric stove from Gazco, with a black granite hearth and a standard fascia beam.

Can't wait to see it decorated - this customer has an eye for details so it'll be good!!!

😱Wood burners are destroying the air we breathe😱

Hmm. Let's put that in context, shall we.

Domestic burning - which includes wood burners, yes, but also open fires, garden bonfires, chimineas, barbecues and your neighbour's annual November 5th bonfire situation - is regularly cited as a major source of PM2.5 air pollution.

What you rarely see mentioned alongside that statistic:

🔹 PM2.5 emissions in the UK have fallen by 76% since 1990
🔹 Modern Ecodesign stoves account for just over 1% of ALL UK PM2.5 emissions
🔹 The biggest culprits within domestic burning are open fires and old inefficient stoves - NOT certified modern appliances
🔹 Road transport and industrial processes are major contributors BUT funny how those don't make the 'destroying the air' headlines quite as often isn't it? Mabe it's because we're already taxed on these things! (Just saying!)

Nobody is saying air quality doesn't matter. It absolutely does, BUT it's improving SIGNIFICANTLY year on year. The shift to Ecodesign stoves and certified fuels is a big part of why.

A modern stove, installed properly, burning the right fuel, isn't destroying anything. It's heating a home cleanly and efficiently while giving you that irreplaceable feeling of sitting in front of a real fire on a cold night.

That's not destruction. That's just a really good Tuesday evening. Who's with me?!

Come and see us if you want to know more. 🔥
