"Everything went great from a call from Chris and a very fast response to come out. He did he measurements and got back with a design plan. Once we agreed he started when he said and completed the project as said. Made a few small changes along the way and I understood there would be a change or order fee but it was worth it. His vision in a plan with what I had just talked about I wanted was spot on. Yes I would and will hire him again. Another decision helper for me was that he is a veteran and that is big when it comes down to looking at estimates."

A locally-owned natural stone (granite and marble), engineered quartz, and Neolith countertop fabricator and installer.
"We were in the stage of purchase where we delivered a sink to site (11th June) so they could make the correct cuts for a quartz countertop install. The sink was inspected on site by Amy while I was there (my wife and I had inspected it prior to delivering it as well), a 70% payment made for the countertop, and a date for install was set 13 days later. On the day of installation my wife received a call saying the sink had broken and asked what we would like to do. She stated she would call them back after speaking with me. Before we had the chance to call back we received a text message saying they were working on a solution for the sink and to stand by. They then sent an image and link to a sink of similar design and color. We clarified that it was the same color and undermount and then said that we it was fine and we appreciated them finding a solution. The countertop was installed after some unclear back and forth.We were told either around or after the expected arrival time that we would not be able to have it installed that day because they were too far behind schedule. Later that evening (after 6 if I'm not mistaken) the crew showed up to install. They did a fine job. We received an invoice for the remaining 30% of the countertops and surprisingly, also the cost of the replacement sink. Which would mean that we paid for our own sink that they broke AND the replacement sink that they delivered. A text said that we should work on getting a refund for our original sink...the issue being that the sink does not have proper grounds for a refund because it was not broken upon arrival. We paid the remaining amount for the countertops which is what we had originally agreed to. We are now getting phone calls, texts, and emails from Michelle saying it was not inspected that day (11th June) despite me checking the sink and watching Amy inspect it on site. Austin Granite Direct had the sink in their possession for 13 more days prior to being told it became broken. It remained in their possession because the fabricators needed to have the sink for the cuts. Despite paying the best part of $6k to Austin Granite Direct (everything we originally agreed to) they want more money from me to pay for a sink they broke. Michelle also wants to add late fees for the sink. We were pleasant and patient when we were told that the sink had become broken, and again when we were told that installation couldn't happen that day, and again when the installation crew unexpectedly arrived into our evening. I can't help but feel that this is a bit of a scam to get more money from us since we didn't originally purchase a sink from them."

"Mark and his crew did an amazing job in what some can call a record timeframe. We had such a hard time finding a contractor in Austin who was responsive and genuinely interested in helping us.

Most localities require permits for gas fireplace removal, especially when gas lines are involved or structural changes are planned. Permit requirements vary significantly between municipalities, so check with your local building department before beginning work. Working without required permits can result in fines and complications when selling your home. Your contractor should be familiar with local requirements and can often handle the permitting process as part of the project.
The timeframe for gas fireplace removal varies based on project complexity. Simple projects take one to five days, while complete demolitions involving chimney removal can extend to several weeks. Factors affecting the timeline include the fireplace's size, materials, accessibility, and whether structural modifications are needed. Your contractor should provide a detailed timeline after assessing your specific situation and identifying any potential complications.
Removing a gas fireplace may decrease your home's value by $1,000 to $5,000, particularly in regions where fireplaces are considered desirable features. The impact varies depending on your local real estate market and buyer preferences. In cold-climate areas or luxury home markets, the absence of a fireplace might make your property less attractive to potential buyers. Consider consulting with a local real estate professional before removing a fireplace if you're concerned about resale value.
After removing a gas fireplace, you have numerous options for the reclaimed space. Many homeowners install built-in bookshelves, create an entertainment center for a television, or simply extend their living area. The space might also become a decorative niche for artwork or a reading corner with comfortable seating. Whatever you choose, ensure that the area is properly finished to blend seamlessly with the rest of your room, with appropriate flooring, wall treatments, and lighting.
Converting your gas fireplace to electric is often a practical alternative to complete removal. This option preserves the aesthetic appeal of a fireplace while eliminating gas-related maintenance and safety concerns. Electric fireplaces offer simplified installation, cleaner operation, and adjustable heat settings.
The conversion process involves removing gas components, capping the gas line, and installing an electric insert. This approach can be more economical than full removal while maintaining a functional heating feature in your home.
Finding qualified professionals for gas fireplace removal requires researching contractors with specific credentials. Look for licensed plumbers with gas fitting certification to handle the gas line disconnection. For structural work, seek contractors with experience in fireplace removal and demolition. Request references from previous similar projects and verify proper insurance coverage. Obtaining multiple quotes helps ensure competitive pricing while allowing you to assess each contractor's expertise and approach to your specific project needs.
