Bob seemed like a really nice elderly man unfortunately he's inept and he lies. He came on 1/20/21. He couldn't fix our gas fireplace. He still charged us $253 for a "service call" and said it needed parts totaling hundreds of dollars. After months of not hearing back, we hired someone who knew what they were doing. Our fireplace needed a new switch - It's a part that costs about $1. Fireplace is now working. I called Bob from SJ Gas Fireplace Services to ask for a refund. He said he would give us one if we could send him a picture of the receipt from the the company who actually fixed it. We texted

We had a service person named Jim G. I would call for him again in a minute. We had a gas leak in our fireplace, Jim took his time checking everything up and down stairs. He was very thorough, worked very clean and fixed the fireplace. Extremely knowledgeable and friendly, this company should be extremely happy he works there

Very courteous and great communication skills. I originally left a voicemail to schedule and decided a call shortly after to schedule our gas heater repair. We received a call the day of to confirm. He showed up on time and let us know exactly what was happening with our system and what he could do to repair it. He repaired our heater that day at a reasonable price. We also discussed upgrade options and he left material for us to keep should we decide to do so in the future. I absolutely recommend SJ Gas Fireplace Services.

Find another company! I called to scheduled an appointment. The gentleman (I am assuming the owner) stated they were extremely busy and it would be at least 2 weeks. I said no problem and scheduled an appointment. The appointment came and went with no a no show and a no call. I called to inquire and the gentleman stated they were extremely busy and I have to have patience. I responded that I had an appointment and they no showed. He gave me a story about someone calling out and that never happens and he would check the books and get back to me ASAP with a new date and time. Three days came and

We had an issue with our gas fireplace. SJ Gas Fireplace Services was one of the companies I came across while looking for fireplace repair. They were booked up for a few weeks in advance when I initially called, but sent a representative out to our house as scheduled. The gentleman (Bob) who arrived was courteous, very knowledgeable, worked clean and couldn't have been more friendly! He diagnosed the issue with the fireplace, and promptly repaired it! One down side was the service fee that was a bit pricey, but since SJ Gas Fireplace Services resolved our fireplace issue and did it very professionally
