For the removal of drywall and plaster that covered brick we wanted to expose, it went much the same way. I came over in the middle of this part of the job, and the team were pounding on the wall to remove all the plaster?it was messy work as you can imagine. By the end of the day, it was again totally cleaned up. David and his team took extra care to make the wall look great, including wire brushing it with bleach. It's the highlight of our downstairs now! Throughout the job, he showed a lot of attention to detail, making sound decisions for things I hadn't considered, like where a light-switch should go or how to fill in the missing crown molding. They did a great job and would definitely use them again for a big project!

George and colleague called when en route so we could time our meet up. They were timely, friendly but professional, cleaned and serviced the fireplace after installing the new part, and made sure we knew how to properly operate the gas fireplace (it is an older model and hadn't been used in years). They also made sure to point out the importance of installing a CO detector and advised on placement.
They not only discovered and diagnosed the problem quickly, they consulted with us on the solution. Additionally, their work was outstanding. They performed everything quickly and efficiently, cleaned up everything behind them, and informed us that the condo association would cover the cost (which is why we don't know how much it cost). Outstanding service!
Compare this with the first company we used, Complete Chimney & Fireplace of some unknown location in Virginia (absolutely no brick-and-mortar address on their card, their website, or their forms---only "Dan" and a phone number (and a PO Box). They did a perfectly adequate job replacing the fireplace box tiles, and they also did a largely adequate job replacing our surround, except for the bad collective decision (between "Dan" and his helper and the two of us) to not make the bottom piece of granite long enough. -- This is work that they can do, but it's not their specialty, clearly. They also didn't give us half the advice that Mr. Raycroft did, and they never went on the roof to notice that the cap over our chimney was both smashed in--and the wrong cap. "Dan" and his guy were also nice enough, they got two jobs done for us, and they also cleaned up after themselves, but we just can't figure out how they got the highest ratings on Angie's List. Complete Chimney & Fireplace is a good hire if you already know all you need to know about chimneys, mantels, and surrounds, and you simply want to hire a company to carry out the specific instructions that you provide. Rooftop Chimney Sweeps, Ltd., is for the rest of us, IMHO.

He did a thorough inspection of both fireplaces and walked me through all of his findings and his recommendations. Because one of them kept setting off the smoke detector, it was clear that it needed a thorough cleaning. He disputed the quote I had received earlier for $100 for both diagnostics but since I ended up having work done, it was a moot point. I did buy the service agreement, which I wasn't necessarily inclined to do, but the price differential between the work with and without the service agreement made it clear that purchasing the service agreement would be worth it. He was able to do the work that same day which was terrific. After an initial cleaning, the smoke detector still went off, so he did additional cleaning to the logs which solved the problem. He also explained how the remote control works and how to use them as an additional heating source which has made a world of difference in the house. I would absolutely use James A.

Gas Fireplace Repair reviews from real Angi homeowners in Fairmount Heights, MD
I have a very old Sears gas range where the oven wouldn’t ignite and the oven door wouldn’t stay closed. Lartman was able to fix both issues even though there were no parts available to fix this unit due to its age. We had a working range in time for Thanksgiving. The price was reasonable...
The team arrived on time and ready to work on this multi-day project. Removing the gas fireplace required re-routing the gas line, which they did without any problems. After the first day, they had finished the demo of the fireplace and the wall it was in, and the left the place spotless....

FAQs for gas fireplace repair projects in Fairmount Heights, MD
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. A leaky junction or connection behind the stove or dryer will likely cost about $120 to $170. 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.
The cost to install a fireplace is $2,440 on average. This cost can range from $150 to $8,000 or more, depending on the type of fireplace, the materials used, and the size.
Electric fireplaces cost around $1,000 to install, and mostly only require wiring installation. Installing a wood fireplace from scratch could cost upwards of $10,000, depending on the foundation needed to support the weight of the fireplace. In addition, gas fireplaces can cost between $2,500 and $10,000.
The cost to remodel your fireplace is $1,200 on average. This cost can range from $400 to $2,000, depending on the extent of work needed.
If you add a hearth to your fireplace, you can expect to pay between $3 and $200per square foot. However, if you're refacing your fireplace, the price tag will depend on your chosen materials. If choosing tile, you can pay between $1 and $50per square foot, depending on the design. Stone is a more expensive material, averaging between $60 and $70 per square foot.
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. Gas fireplaces need electrical and gas lines installed properly, so hiring a pro is recommended rather than trying to DIY installation.
