We had a fireplace cord delivered. Stubby's are professionals. They come when they promise, stack nice wood exactly where you need it, for exactly what they quoted, and then they're on to the next part of their day. What else can anyone wish for!
- Chad D.
Great service - very happy
- Michael S.
Excellent service. Friendly and easy to do business with. Products and installation were both high quality, and in the remote chance I did have a problem in the future, I have total confidence it would be resolved without issue. This is my second time using this company, and I recommend them...
- Kurt S.
No service was needed or provided by the company. I followed Tom's advice which turned out great
- Scott P.
He was great. Genuinely. Knew his stuff. He knew that the newer models of our fireplace had recognized the same issue we were having and he moved the box that was measuring temperature. Rather than requiring us to purchase a new unit (which was a bit melted looking) he replaced the cover...
- Claire S.
David provided excellent service....quickly and left no mess....he pointed out and suggested a future repair for our cap....and also suggested a maintenance item that we could do ourselves with the wood furnace. We set up an annual service program, and I will do routine service with him. ...
- Marcia D.
Absolutely wonderful service. Professional, dependable, honest (sometimes I just leave the back door open so he can come in and get the work done!), and knowledgeable. I know from his excellent work with another customer that he knows his boilers, too! No need to call anyone else but Thoennes!

Nick's Chimney Service & Duct Cleaning of St Paul MN has been family owned and operated for over 16 years. We serve the Twin Cities Metro and Western Wisconsin areas, and we provide quality, reliable services at affordable rates.
"I had them out a few years ago to do $650.00 in tuck-pointing on my chimney since it was causing water intrusion into my basement. Their work started failing at the end of 2024 so I called them to see how much they stand behind their work and if they can at least inspect it to see what other issues the chimney may have. They never called or emailed me back so it all felt like a scam for them to get some quick cash with a half-hearted ‘fix’ when they did the tuck-pointing."

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.
