"I contacted M&J Prime Builders on a Sunday morning via an urgent request on Angi (Angie's List) to repair a leak in our backyard irrigation system. Javier contacted us immediately and arrived at our home in Concord with his business partner, Marcos, within 90 minutes. They were very attentive, professional, and accommodating, especially for our unexpected Sunday morning emergency. They not only repaired the leak but also addressed another issue that had arisen with our shutoff valve. Their estimate was very reasonable and accurate, and their work is top-notch. Javier is both a licensed contractor and a civil engineer. As a result, they offer a wide range of home improvement projects. I will be using their services again and highly recommend M&J Prime Builders"

"By far the worst experience I have EVER had with a repair company. They have been out FIVE times and not only is the original problem NOT fixed, 2 new problems have "mysteriously" appeared. They have ordered the wrong parts twice, not shown for appointments without even bothering to call, and have been disorganized and incompetent every step of the way. And my dishwasher still does NOT work! RUN!"

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

Most homeowners put a layer of compact sand or gravel at the bottom of their firepit, but you can also choose more decorative options like fire-resistant paving stones, bricks, or fire pit glass. Dirt by itself can even work, but other materials do a better job of spreading the heat around.

Regular cleaning, checking venting, and scheduling professional inspections help ensure safe operation.

No, there are no ventless pellet stoves. Because pellet stoves burn wood pellets, they produce wood smoke—which contains carbon monoxide. This harmful substance needs to be vented out of your living area. That said, there are vent-free and ventless fireplaces that run on natural gas and propane. These offer the heating and ambiance of a fireplace without the need to vent thick and hazardous wood smoke.

You can control the flame on a pellet stove by using a damper, often located on the back of the pellet stove. While the damper function varies by model, you can open the damper slightly to let in more air or close it slightly to provide less oxygen, with the ultimate goal of providing a steady flame.

How big a fire pit should be depends on how many people you want to get around it on a regular basis, and how big your space is. The average fire pit size is between 36 and 44 inches. However, if you regularly host big gatherings and have the appropriate outdoor space, you can go as big as 72 inches.
