Used Graham for the first time today after moving into a property with a log burner. He was very knowledgeable and gave us advice on how to use the log burner as we had never had one before. He was punctual, tidy, friendly and chatty. Would thoroughly recommend Graham to anyone. A very nice chap who is passionate about his work.
