Before they started I asked the owner what brand of equipment would be installed as I was considering upgrading. He told me they use Rheem but actually installed Weather King. He later said it was their \"contractor\" version. The duct work was installed sloppily with some 2nd floor ducts run along exterior walls not allowing room for insulation. During construction, I visited the site and found that to install one run to the 2nd floor they removed a 2x4 stud on an exterior wall by cutting the top and bottom then prying the stud from the exterior sheeting. This left about 6 holes in the wall the size of 50 cent pieces where the nails securing the sheeting to the stud were ripped out. Luckily I found this when I removed the duct because it should not have been in an exterior wall. If I wouldn't have removed it, there would have been 6 holes letting in outside air directly to an uninsulated wall cavity. The duct work was so poorly done that I had to install fans in two of the ducts going to the 2nd floor just to get any air to come out. Even with the fans boosting the air flow, you can barely feel any air. Both rooms are always hot in the summer. If you go to the basement you can feel the air pouring down from the cavity that those ducts are run in, telling me they didn't assemble the ducts properly. In 3 of the 4 bedrooms there is absolutely no air being sucked back by the air return register. Obviously, they didn't test the system or didn't care that it doesn't work well. They didn't stop the shoddy work there. They also installed the gas fireplace that rain comes in from the exterior vent occasionally. All in all, they did a sloppy, unprofessional and careless job. I wouldn't let them change the furnace filter."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/il/east-peoria/mc-cabe-heating-cooling-co-reviews-5545840.htm"},"position":10}]}

They need to explain a little more about what electrical companies mark and if the homeowner knows of anything else electrical added. When they hit my drain field pipes, they were going to cover it up instead of discussing issues with the homeowner about repairing it properly. If an issue...

"I called for a free estimate, Justin came promtly and inspected the chimey. He showed me pictures of the problems and spelled out all the options. I explained to him that my cellar has floode due the problems and was anxious to get the repairs done. Justin quoted a price that was fair and much lower then any other estimates. To my surprise he said that he could do the job that day. He kept sending me pictures as the work progressed so I knew exactlywhat he was doing.

"The repair was never done; my $1000.00 paid deposit was returned to me after more than a month of waiting for the repair. These are the details: A brick on my chimney was loose and then was dislodged during a wind storm, and other of the chimney bricks were becoming loose. A written estimate for repair of the chimney was provided by Excel. I paid $1000.00 up front, which was half of the estimate, and agreed to pay the other $1000.00 after the work was completed. The Excel company employee set up the scaffold and was preparing to climb and do the repair when an employee of the City of Peoria's electric company, Ameren, pulled up and told the Excel employee to immediately disassemble the platform because it was unsafe: it was too close to the electric lines - that no-one had notified the company that this work was planned so that the wires could be turned off by Ameren during the work. The Ameren employee then called the Excel company owner himself to tell him this, and then the Ameren employee did not leave until the scaffold was completely removed and the Excel employee had left with it. The Excel employee told me before he left that the company would be back in a few days to do the repairs. But more than a month went by and I heard nothing more from them. After more than a month with no repairs done or attempted again, I contacted Excel again and asked them to either do the repairs or return the $1000.00 that I had already paid them. At that point, the Excel company said they would return the money, and they did so."

FAQs for gas fireplace repair projects in Germantown Hills, IL
Fixing a gas leak costs about $45 to $150 per hour for a plumber or gas line specialist. The job’s overall cost will vary depending on the location of the leak.

But for a leak that requires a gas fitter or plumber to excavate a pipe in the yard, the cost could rise to $1,500 to $5,000. Keep in mind that gas leaks are very serious issues, so don’t hesitate to contact a plumber or gas line specialist immediately.

Yes, it can be worth installing a gas fireplace, depending on your home heating needs. The cost to install a gas fireplace can be much lower than the cost to install a comparable wood-burning fireplace. The convenience of starting a fire with the flip of a switch and turning it off just as quickly makes a gas fireplace a big time saver over starting and maintaining a wood-fueled fire. A gas fireplace also does not require ash cleanup or frequent chimney cleaning to remove creosote and other buildup that can lead to chimney fires. Gas fireplaces burn and heat much more cleanly than wood fireplaces.
A gas fireplace insert costs about $3,600 to install, on average. The cost to install a gas log insert ranges from about $700 to $6,500, depending on the size, type of insert, how it works, and heating needs.
