We replaced the batteries and that didn't do the trick so we thought there may be something else going on. The guys who came out to check the fireplace were great and very professional/friendly. Turns out all that was wrong was that the batteries weren't connecting with the coils. All they had to do was twist and rotate the batteries a bit - low and behold, fireplace turns on. Since they were here, they cleaned the glass on the fireplace screen, etc. The guys told me I would be charged a and quot;trip feeand quot;. My issue wasn't with the repair guys and their professionalism or service. My issue was with the bill and the woman I spoke with when I called to ask about it.
When I received my bill, it was nearly $60! For twisting my batteries and using glass cleaner on the fireplace screen? I could have done that myself! I would say a bill of $25 or so would have been more agreeable with me. Yes, they had to take their time to come to my house, so I understand having to pay something. But $60?! Really???
After picking myself up off the floor, I called to speak with their billing dept. The woman I was transferred to was incredibly rude. I was being very nice so it wasn't like she was responding to my negativity. I simply asked why the bill was so high and her response was that they were basically doing me a favor - I should have been charges $115 or more (!!!!), but they reduced it to a and quot;trip feeand quot; of $60. Even when I explained my frustration over a bill that high for twisting batteries and cleaning the glass, she still wouldn't budge and only became ruder. She repeated herself and gave me the same robotic verbiage.
I will not be calling this company again or referring any of my friends/family. And honestly, I would not be leaving a negative report if the woman would have been cordial and pleasant with me. The fact that she treated a customer that way - that is why I have left this report."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/ar/mabelvale/royal-overhead-door-inc-reviews-321512.htm"},"position":10}]}

FAQs for gas fireplace repair projects in Alamo, CA
Fixing a gas leak costs about $45 to $150 per hour for a plumber or gas line specialist. The job’s overall cost will vary depending on the location of the leak. A leaky junction or connection behind the stove or dryer will likely cost about $120 to $170. But for a leak that requires a gas fitter or plumber to excavate a pipe in the yard, the cost could rise to $1,500 to $5,000. Keep in mind that gas leaks are very serious issues, so don’t hesitate to contact a plumber or gas line specialist immediately.
The cost to install a fireplace is $2,440 on average. This cost can range from $150 to $8,000 or more, depending on the type of fireplace, the materials used, and the size.
Electric fireplaces cost around $1,000 to install, and mostly only require wiring installation. Installing a wood fireplace from scratch could cost upwards of $10,000, depending on the foundation needed to support the weight of the fireplace. In addition, gas fireplaces can cost between $2,500 and $10,000.
The cost to remodel your fireplace is $1,200 on average. This cost can range from $400 to $2,000, depending on the extent of work needed.
If you add a hearth to your fireplace, you can expect to pay between $3 and $200per square foot. However, if you're refacing your fireplace, the price tag will depend on your chosen materials. If choosing tile, you can pay between $1 and $50per square foot, depending on the design. Stone is a more expensive material, averaging between $60 and $70 per square foot.
Yes, it can be worth installing a gas fireplace, depending on your home heating needs. The cost to install a gas fireplace can be much lower than the cost to install a comparable wood-burning fireplace. The convenience of starting a fire with the flip of a switch and turning it off just as quickly makes a gas fireplace a big time saver over starting and maintaining a wood-fueled fire. A gas fireplace also does not require ash cleanup or frequent chimney cleaning to remove creosote and other buildup that can lead to chimney fires. Gas fireplaces burn and heat much more cleanly than wood fireplaces.
A gas fireplace insert costs about $3,600 to install, on average. The cost to install a gas log insert ranges from about $700 to $6,500, depending on the size, type of insert, how it works, and heating needs. Gas fireplaces need electrical and gas lines installed properly, so hiring a pro is recommended rather than trying to DIY installation.
