"Pat and Midwest Landscaping did a great job on my yard. The plants had literally taken over and we had some poison ivy growing between our fence and the neighbor’s. In one morning they trimmed things that had gotten too big, moved plants to space them out better, weeded and got rid of the poison ivy problem. Really the best part was that they used all of our own plants, so we didn’t have to buy anything new. Whenever we need more help with the landscaping, we will be calling Pat."

For an immediate response to all of your hardscaping and landscaping needs... Call Roberto @ (847) 544-1747
"Installation was efficient and careful, as well as a good value. Salinas Landscaping uses high quality fixtures. We chose 2 types in antique brass, a flood to light trees and a shaded path light. We wanted the path-lighting posts buried deeper than typical for stability and subtlety, which Roberto and his crew accommodated. They also managed to deinstall some old lighting without breaking the circuit. We appreciated getting the work done in time for Thanksgiving, as well as Roberto’s willingness to come back in March and replace a flood with LED lights that had gone dim. Salinas Landscaping backs its work! They even took an extra few minutes to adjust the light timer for daylight saving time."

Your monthly gas bill will increase by $0.35 to $0.62 for each hour you operate your fireplace. The exact impact depends on your specific model's efficiency rating, local utility rates, and usage frequency.
Many homeowners find that strategic use of a gas fireplace can reduce overall heating expenses by allowing them to lower the thermostat in unused rooms while keeping gathering spaces comfortable.
Gas fireplaces often prove more economical when heating specific living areas rather than an entire home. For example, using a fireplace in your family room while reducing whole-house heating can yield significant savings.
The comparative efficiency depends on your home's layout, insulation quality, and the relative costs of gas versus your primary heating fuel. Homes with open floor plans benefit more from strategic fireplace use than those with numerous separate rooms.
Self-installation is strongly discouraged due to safety concerns and regulatory requirements. Working with gas lines presents serious risks, including leaks, improper combustion, and potential carbon monoxide hazards.
Professional installation ensures proper venting, appropriate gas line sizing, and compliance with local building codes. Additionally, many manufacturers void warranties on self-installed units, potentially costing more in the long run if problems arise.
Converting from wood to gas involves various components and considerations that affect the final price. The project requires installing a gas line, adding a fireplace insert or gas log set, and potentially modifying the existing chimney or flue. Costs vary based on your current fireplace configuration, desired features, and local labor rates.
Consult with local fireplace specialists for quotes specific to your situation, as structural modifications or venting requirements can significantly impact the overall expense.
