"Very well. I bought through Angies List. I scheduled myself, as I needed to get this done within the week I called. I talked to the owner, Martin, who was so nice and in the process of moving his shop from Gilroy to Morgan Hill. Because I wanted this done relatively fast, I said I was flexible and could meet anytime, suggesting if they are out near Los Gatos, perhaps they could squeeze me in. He said in fact, he thought they might be in the next week or so, and he would text me. Well, the very next day, I got a text and met his guys and they did a good job. Plus they took the time to show me how the gas fireplace works. I was very pleased. Martin was very responsive continually and kept me posted or had his guys call to update me on time to meet. Martin also knows everything about BBQ's, so if your BBQ stops working, there is no better place to call for that too! I know I will!"

"This was my first experience in remodeling and working with Nathan Weizmann of Goodfellas.  I was very pleased with the work and enjoyed working with Nathan.  He was very organized and walked us through how the process works, timelines, city permits and items that we are required to choose and purchase such as tiles, faucets, etc.  Nathan was excellent at keeping us updated on the daily objectives and dependancies and he was very responsive when we had questions.  We added additional work and had them remodel our two fireplaces.  They finished within the time frame that they initially estimated.  I would definitely work with Nathan again on future projects.

"So far, it has been pretty good but they haven’t done the work yet.  They have been very responsive.  They have gone through the bidding process very respectfully.  They are supposed to come over next week to finalize the design on the job they are going to do for me.  They quoted me $28000.  It has been a pretty positive experience so far.  I had another contractor bid the job, that was a terrible experience, and these guys were, much, much better.  I liked that they did not put any high-pressure sales on me like some other contractors and the others were twice as much in their pricing.  They gave me a quote, told me it was good for six months and told me I could make a decision whenever I want.  They were pretty kicked back, the guy I dealt with was Graham and I think he is one of the owners.  He was pretty straightforward and didn’t not provide any high-pressure sales.  We have been conversing via email back and forth and sometimes it takes a couple of days to respond to my email so from correspondence point of view, it has been really good.  They are scheduled to start the work on the first week of June.  He showed up on time when he came to do the quote. "

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

You shouldn’t remove a fireplace yourself. Before beginning this job, you’d need to know whether or not you have a load-bearing fireplace. To do that, you’d need help from a structural engineer. Plus, fireplace removals require permits and often involve working with gas lines or electricity, which can be dangerous. For all of these reasons, it’s best to hire a pro for this project.

The length of time it takes to repoint your chimney depends on its design and the extent of damage, but generally, the process takes a couple of days. You can expect just one to two days for a small job or up to four days for a larger chimney or more complex project.

The height of the chimney for your outdoor fireplace depends on where the fireplace is located. Ideally, the chimney should be 2 to 3 feet higher than surrounding structures; this allows smoke to ventilate properly without endangering anyone or anything.

Note: Your municipality may have strict requirements regarding chimney heights, so it’s always a good idea to check local building codes.

Fireplace inserts can increase home value when installed correctly. Since they improve heating efficiency significantly, this will be a bonus to homeowners who are looking for a functional alternative heat source. Plus, inserts are less maintenance and less of a liability than a traditional fireplace. You’re very likely to recover fireplace insert installation costs when you sell your home.

Yes, you can close off a fireplace both temporarily and permanently with extremely wide price ranges. Temporary solutions involve fireplace plugs that can be inflated to block air and deflated to open the fireplace, covers, and boards. Permanent methods of shutting off fireplaces usually involve bricking up the fireplace or covering it with drywall. No matter the method, it’s probably best to hire a professional.
