Report
Fantastic service. Zach (sp?) and Pablo came to our house last week for 2 issues. The biggest was water getting into the house when it rained and we just could not figure out how, and wondered about the chimney. Secondly we needed our gas fireplace serviced as we'd never had that done before. Well Zach did not give up until he found the source of the water leakage which did turn out to be chimney related. He not only climbed the exterior of the (2 story) house to look at the chimney, he then climbed up into our unfinished attic and found exactly where the water was coming in. He then had to

Spoke to Rachel when my gas insert would not shut off. She was fantastic, had Patrick out to my home and took care of my issue within one hour. Very flexible, knowledgeable and convenient! I would highly recommend them

Well weve just been cancelled on for the third time without notification. They literally just dont show up... we call, they reschedule for a *month* later, we make arrangements and take time off work, and then just dont show again. Its definitely my fault for giving this many chances, but the deposit was huge and we were really hoping to have a fireplace before it got cold. If the reasons they have for cancellation are valid, they should be able to notify us as a courtesy.

Matt was extremely helpful even before coming to work on the fireplace. He walked me through on the phone just in the event we didn't need someone to help start the gas up. Because of this I had them come out and perform the annual service. Our fireplace looks brand new and it runs safely now. Thank you!

Mathew Goodrich did an excellent job on my gas fireplace, he was very polite, efficient and very trustworthy. The work place was cleaned after the job. I would definitely use him again on any future project I have. Thank you Mathew, keep up the good work.
