North Gate Home ImprovementsExcellent service & installation. We had storm damage and they were there the next day to do repairs. We asked for a bid to replace the whole roof and he gave us a credit in the amount of the repair charge against the cost of the new installation. Extremely neat. Showed up when they said they...
Bradley's RoofingThey have always repaired my appliance correctly the first time. Highly recommended.
They came out, identified the root cause of the problem, identified the parts needed, and made a temporary repair. Once the parts came in, they came right back out and completed the job. Their work was professionally done.
Needed to schedule this fairly big job a month in advance which I guess means they are in demand, Jay and crew completed all work in one day, which included backhoe trenching for gas line (90 ft), riser to the house and pipe to the furnace utility area. Also installed manifold for future...
Nice gentleman answered the phone on a friday afternoon and scheduled the repair for monday morning. Arrived on time and completed the repair appropriately.
I called Mr. Newhouse on the morning of 3/31/14 for some flashing repairs in a few areas and set up an appointment for that afternoon. Chuck was promptly there at the agreed time and checked everything out and gave his recommendations for what needed to be done. He also stated it would be a...
NEWHOUSE CONTRACTINGLee was fantastic from start to finish. I am selling the home where the repair was done, do not live there (live 1/2 hour away), and although his estimate was a few hundred more than a larger company, he went above and beyond for that little bit extra.

Reliant gas lines is a natural gas service line repair or replacement company. I handle the buried portion of the service line from curb stop to meter and the buried house line if the meter is far away from the house. I do a good job at a fair price, am qualified for both Peoples Gas and Columbia Gas and fully insured. As a small owner operator business I can be flexible on scheduling as these types of problems tend to be emergencies. While in business for myself just a short time now I have over 15 years of experience in the natural gas industry involving repair and replacement of gas mains and service lines.
"Great job quick."

At Sullivan Super Service, you’ll take pride in knowing you’re hiring a family-owned company that employs four generations of Sullivans and has been working in the Pittsburgh area since 1964. Bill and Anna Sullivan started their business out of their home with just one truck. As their family grew, so did their business and they opened a shop in Braddock and hired more technicians. Through the years the company grew but remained committed to offering the special touch of a family operated business.
"Overall the multiple projects went well. More costly than expected but we did receive some discounts which helped. The only one item I would mention is that we bought an incorrect faucet/drain combination. The tech replaced the drain components but since the faucet we had was designed to have a pull lever for the drain, and the one he used was a push down stopper, the hole where the pull up leveler would have gone stayed opened. It does not look good so we now need to live with it."

"We had contracted Anthony and team to update our foyer and living space in our recently purchased home. This included creating an opening and adding support in a load bearing wall, demolishing an existing closet, creating a new partition walls and bulkhead, installing new hardwood flooring and baseboards in three rooms. Communication with Anthony throughout the project was a breeze; he is extremely responsive. Once the project started, they were able to complete the work in the time that they promised. They took the necessary precautions to protect the floors and the walls during demolition and left the space neat once the work was done. There was a slight miscommunication regarding the specification of the bulkhead. But Anthony was nice enough to rectify the problem and did not charge me extra for it! I have other work planned in the future and will definitely reach out to A&J Contracting!"

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 $200 per 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 $50 per 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.
From average costs to expert advice, get all the answers you need to get your job done.
