"I hired FlueTech to repair my discontinued gas log fireplace based on the good reviews here. I had a completely different experience with them, feeling they were either grossly incompetent, or possibly dishonest (in order to sell a more expensive service). I'm not sure which, but either way I give them an F rating for total failure. They said the PILOT LIGHT didn't go on (it did but they didn't bother to put a match to it as the affixed label clearly states to do), that it would be $1500 to repair IF they could find original manufacturer parts, but they couldn't (working parts are readily available on the Internet from other manufacturers). Their only resolve for me was to put in a new insert at a cost of $10,000-$15,000 with permits. I declined. I recounted the above to a manager who waived the bill for the service call and said he'd look in to my complaint and call me back. Never heard from him again, after almost 3 weeks. I then hired MR. CHIMNEY. Mike was knowledgeable, honest and quickly diagnosed my unit and got it working. It was a simple fix, I just needed a new receiver and remote at a cost of $369. Even though my model is older and discontinued he came prepared with all the parts on his truck. I highly recommend using Mr. Chimney and steering clear of FlueTech."

"we sold our house and the buyers insisted that the chimney was inspected so that they could use it. Their chimney guy gave them a load of bull with a quote of over 12k. We called 1 Hour Chimney, they came out right away and went over the details of the previous quote. Turns out that the previous quote was a load of garbage, and we were able to fix all of the necessary issues for half the price. The installers cleaned up after themselves, were courteous and very nice people. Very nice staff in the office and would recommend to anyone who needs repair work on their fireplace/chimney."

"It want poorly. The company sent someone to provide an estimate. He used a drone to take photos in the area of the leaky roof. He provided a verbal estimate. Then no followup. I call them, and was told that they had no record of ever coming to my home. I waited a bit, called them again, and they sent another person to provide an estimate. The estimate was close to the first one. And again, I hear nothing from them afterwards, in spite of 3 phone calls asking for a written estimate and for scheduling the job. Then I gave up and hired another company."

Affordable Home Services is a family owned and operated company for three generations specializing in roofing, siding and windows replacements, kitchens, bathrooms and additions. We accept all major credit cards.
"A small flat roof was replaced on the extension of my house in November, 2018 as well as a roof on our shed. At the end of 2021 the house roof leaked through the high hats in the ceiling. I tried to contact the contractor with no success and had to hire another contractor to make repairs. Recently, we experienced more leaks. Two separate contractors have informed me that the material used to replace the roof was outdated and poorly installed. The roof is only 3.5 years old and needs to be replaced again."

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.
