"After getting quotes from 7 different companies, and researching the reviews online, I finally settled on The Mad Hatter Inc to do the duct cleaning in my house in Vestavia Hills. I liked the reviews I read, and felt that their price was very fair. This company has Duct Cleaning as its primary job whereas some of the other companies do mainly AC/ Heating work, but do the Duct Cleaning as a side (and they quoted exorbitant price). Two nice gentlemen from the Mad Hatter showed up promptly at my Front Door at 8:40AM on Sept 20th. They were very polite. First they looked through each room and the location of the vent, and the garage where the Central AC/Furnace is located. They did a thorough job in cleaning each of the air ducts (both vents and inlets). As they were about to leave, I learnt that they were brothers, and their names were Terry Hill and Lee Hill. It turned out that Terry Hill is the owner of the Mad Hatter Inc company ! I am very pleased with the job they did, and recommend The Mad Hatter Inc company for Duct Cleaning wholeheartedly."

Here at Chapman Plumbing we are committed to providing our customers with professional plumbing services at a reasonable price. I don't want the most customers, just the happiest. As always, we stand behind our work. Mailing address PO Box 107, Shannon, AL 35142-0107

"Our old unit had been giving us problems for the past four years. Jason and Kyle inspected the unit and suggested replacement due to a number of issues they found. The unit was difficult to get at as it was installed in our crawl space and took some time to remove the old unit. They did a great job as they replaced the old gas line which was too small and installed a new pressure regulator as we were experiencing a drop in water pressure if more than one faucet was open. Now have great water pressure and hotter constant water flow."

"*****Standard Heating, Cooling and Plumbing does NOT know how to program a thermostat. I purchased a new air conditioning unit from this company and within 30 days it broke. They came out to fix it and apparently "fixed" the issue, but 2 days later it broke again. The new story is they didn't program the thermostat correction. Please think twice before spending a huge amount of money on a new air conditioning system install with a company that doesn't even know how to program a thermostat."

Gas Fireplace Repair questions, answered by experts

How long limewash will last depends on the quality of the application and the porosity of the surface. For example, a limewash on brick will last five to seven years. If it's a home exterior application, exposure to specific weather conditions is also a factor. Limewash tends to develop a patina over time, and its natural look masks damage and imperfections well.

Some homeowners compare German schmear versus limewash because they look similar, though they’re different techniques. German schmear involves a thin application of mortar to stone or brick, which is then partially wiped off the surface. German schmear is more affordable ($1 to $4 per square foot), and it lasts one or two decades with minimal maintenance. As a downside, it only comes in white or gray.

You may have some limitations when looking for materials and a design to reface your gas fireplace versus what’s available for a traditional wood-burning fireplace. Some gas fireplace surround ideas include stone, concrete, brick, tile, wood, steel, and plaster. However, you should check with the manufacturer of your gas fireplace model to determine if you have any limitations on what you can use.

Knowing who to hire to install your fireplace is important when it comes to having a safe place to burn a fire in your home. The best person to contact for installing fireplaces is a mason or general contractor who has a National Fireplace Institute (NFI) specialist certification. If you’re installing wood paneling, then it’s a good idea to also find a pro who is Wood Energy Technology Transfer (WETT)-certified. 

Both of these certifications show that your pro is well-equipped to install fireplaces and inspect your home for the utmost safety.

The best color to paint a brick fireplace comes down to personal taste. However, neutral colors—like white or gray—will open the space and create a bright modern look, making them popular options. However, choosing a bold color can turn your fireplace into a feature piece that will be the talk of all family gatherings.
