RC&G is an acronym - it stands for "Richard, Charlene, and the Girls", because it's a great reminder of what I'm working for. I'm Richard and my wife and daughters are the most important thing in the world to me. Also hugely important to me is doing great work in my business as a handyman. I've always been mechanically inclined and good at fixing whatever's broken. With decades of experience, now I'm truly a master handyman. Whatever you need, I'm here to get it done. I respond quickly to contacts and give an accurate estimate. Then I arrive as scheduled, do the job right, and leave your house as clean as I found it. I'm looking forward to meeting you!

"Richard was friendly and kind. He installed our blinds, helped clear our sink, fixed our screen door, and assessed our TV mount— all in an hour. We’d love to work with RC&G. As someone with mini houses fixes and projects it can be intimidating to ask for help, but RC&G showed us most things are fixable."

"Very disappointed. This guy is a crook. I paid way too much for what he did and he did not do the work properly. He replaced pipes that were leaking from our upstairs shower. I had another leak a few weeks after he did the repair. 2nd leak was not related to the pipes he repaired, but the 2nd plumber who came out for the 2nd leak had to cut into the ceiling where HK&S Plumbing replaced the pipes and told me that the work was not done properly. He did not glue the pipes properly and he used a rubber coupling that is not allowed in California. The other plumbing company said they would fix his work for 65% less than what I paid HK&S. When I asked HK&S about all this, he gave excuses about the small space and how much more work it would have been to do the work the right way. When I asked him again for a refund, he is now saying his work will last "forever" (really?) and has nothing to say about what he did wrong. He is not giving me a refund. Not sure I will use anyone thru Angi again."

Wood Stove Inspection questions, answered by experts

In many cases, yes, you can remove a fireplace while keeping the chimney. You’d just need to seal the chimney at the bottom and the top. If you’re considering this option, bring it up with your chimney professional. They can determine if your chimney can remain intact without the support of the fireplace underneath it.

No, not all chimneys need a damper. However, most chimneys do, especially in newer homes. Most gas-burning fireplaces cannot function safely without a damper. Only some older wood-burning fireplaces can function safely without one. A chimney without a damper is essentially just an open hole in the roof of your home.

Chimney crowns may be stone, concrete, or metal but most crowns are made of concrete. It’s not recommended to build chimney crowns with mortar (which is different from concrete) due to it’s weaker composition (especially when exposed to the outside elements). Most chimney crowns are custom made to fit your home’s specific chimney.

The best style of chimney cap for a brick chimney is one that fits tightly around the brick top of the chimney. The cap should have a screen to fully enclose it to keep animals out. The best materials include stainless steel, copper, or aluminum that fit tightly or are custom fabricated for a perfect fit on your chimney.

Deciding when to replace your fireplace depends on its condition and your preferences. Replacements may be necessary if your fireplace shows extensive damage, safety issues, or inefficiency. Signs include deteriorating masonry, cracked firebox panels, or a faulty chimney. Aesthetic reasons, such as outdated design, can also drive replacement. Wanting something more sustainable and energy-efficient is another good reason to replace your old fireplace.
