"Everything went well. They use drop cloth on floor and kept everything spotless. It is like taking your car for a service and they find some hidden problems that you are not aware of, but it ends up costing more money than the original estimate. However, it gave me a peace of mind that I know my fireplace and chimney are safe to use. "
"Kelly Rowe completed inspection of the chimney and fireplace. Kelly’s inspection revealed that the chimney is clean and no additional work needs to be done. Kelly is very safety conscious and thorough and pointed out that the way the logs are stacked is dangerous and unsafe because it can produce carbon monoxide when fireplace is turned on. He further rearranged the logs to make the fireplace safe. Kelly also gave advice on keeping the damper open and other safety related tips. Kelly is very punctual, ethical, knowledgeable, and professional. He also responded thoroughly to my follow up questions. Will definitely recommend to friends, family, and other individuals looking for chimney inspection and cleaning service."
"not that great. basically paid $99 to get an estimate. included cleaning roof and minimal repairs. took a while to get appointment, and then when they came, they didn't even do the work! gave a really big estimate and then re-seheduled to have someone else do the work. they wouldn't totally replace the roof, gave different estimates to repair, I went with a different company to do a full roof rplacement."

"We hired Fireplace Freddie to inspect and fix our 100-year-old fireplace & chimney, making it safe to burn real wood again. Nick and Scott came out quickly, and used cameras to inspect. During the inspection Nick visually showed me what the issues were. He also verbally suggested the fix. After the inspection, we received pics and a price quote to fix the issues by installing a stainless steel sleeve in the chimney. We sent the pics and info to 3 other businesses to compare prices. After speaking with Nick numerous times, including 2 conversations with my old school contractor buddy who asked Nick just about every ridiculous question he could possibly think of, Nick remained cool and answered all of his questions. Nick also agreed to do the job with a permit from LADBS which they included in the price, so we decided Fireplace Freddie was the right company to do the job. Patrick was our installer. He had a co-worker, but I didn't catch his name. They showed up on time, covered the floor and furniture and did their job. It took a few days as they said it would, but they were on time, clean and friendly. Each day they came, they covered everything. Each night, they cleaned up and uncovered everything before they left. Patrick also dealt with our LADBS inspector who admittedly was not well versed in chimney repair. Patrick was very friendly, gave the inspector the information he needed including printed specs from the manufacturer, and we passed inspection w/o issue. Scott came back 1 week later to test the fireplace. He lit a fire to make sure it was all good, and it is. To sum it all up, everyone was friendly and professional. The job went super smooth, and we are able to use our wood burning fireplace again, safely. I would highly recommend Fireplace Freddie. A+"
"I previously called another company called Eco Green, they came out and said that they do not do this type of cleaning and it was not what Angie?s List was listed for so I called someone else and that was A-1. A-1 was fine but Eco Green said that it was not what they were listed for in Angie?s List and it was not listed in detail what they will do.
It went fine with A-1 and no problem. They were on time and they were professional. However there was nothing that stood out about them. "
"I was very please with the way they cover my existing floor and divided the work area from the rest of the house so we want get to much dust. other then that they where very pleasant to work with and respond to any question or concern we had."
"Fireplace Door Guy definitely exceeded our expectations. Not only was Danny (the owner) professional and responsive, the quality of workmanship was truly artwork. Our custom fireplace door is now the centerpiece of our main living room. We were so pleased with the door, within a month we ordered a 2nd door for our bedroom fireplace. Thank you Danny"
"Stuart is great. I had a half baked plan for an outdoor oven. He brought it to life. He made two structures out of brick to match the existing outdoor fireplace I have. One for an oven and one for a grill. He did what he said, when he said, and always with a smile. He also does a wide variety of handywork. He's a real craftsman."
Ensures safe electrical connections and proper venting, improving kitchen air quality.
Yes, professionals can often retrofit models with minimal disruption.
Smooth galvanized metal ducting is best and safest for venting a hood range. It’s best to avoid flexible and corrugated types of ducting, as these options don’t provide ample airflow and may not meet local code. For specific advice on which type of duct might be best for your kitchen, reach out to a range hood installation professional.
No, range hoods do not necessarily have to be vented outside. Ductless or non-vented range hoods are available, which are common in condos or small kitchens where connecting to external ductwork isn't feasible. These hoods operate by taking in air, filtering it through charcoal filters to help eliminate smoke and odors, and then recirculating the cleaned air back into the kitchen. However, while these recirculating hoods are more versatile, venting to the outside is still the preferred and more effective method for completely removing smoke, odors, and gases from the room.
If a range hood has minor issues, the average repair costs $85 to $210. This accounts for both parts and labor. More extensive damage can cost as much as $300 to $500, at which point it may be worth considering completely replacing the range hood.
