Thalen PaintingI asked for a repair that day for my gas fireplace. They were extremely responsive and sent someone right away. Most companies hadn't even returned my phone call by the time San Jose Plumbing arrived. Turns out I needed a repair to the fireplace insert, so they couldn't help me. But I'm...

I can't afford to do it all at once and I'm not sure I will have it all done but...
Here on time, the guy they sent first covered the fireplace openings to keep the interior clean, then went to the roof to sweep the chimneys. Inspecting the flues, he recommended some minor mortar repair which he did the same call. He also advised that one of my dampers had a large hole in it...

"I called this Co to schedule an appointment, for my frig that wasnt making ice or refilling the water pitcher, and they could come out the next morning for a service call of 99.00 so I hired them. The technician was very knowledgeable no diagnosis was done, he found the issue, which was such a simple fix, never asked me if i wanted to go ahead with a repair, as there was no diagnostic done, to offer me the repair, he just went ahead and cleaned out the sensor for the Water pitcher, and it worked. Then he told me i owed him 295.00, i was a bit confused, he said there is a minimum labor charge of 295.00, i was never told that nor was I offered a repair for that amount of money, bait and switch... be aware of this Company, they don't tell you on the phone about the minimum labor fee!!!! They said i was offered a repair after the diagnosis, and I was never offered anything, If i had known that this minor leak would have cost 295.00 i never would have hired them. All the was done, nothing"
