"Less than 5 years ago, I spent in excess of $10,000 to have a new unit installed with a 10 year warranty. I should have seen the red flags from the very beginning. The sales representative told us additional vents would be installed and when the installation crew showed up, that did not happen. Fast forward to the present and I am now on my 4th phone call for an appointment this season, 3 days so far of not being able to work as I waited for a technician to come diagnose the problem. The 3rd. tech came last night and indicated that the work the other tech did was not for the root of the problem. (I was told in front of witnesses that the work needed to be done, was not covered under warranty, would cost me $367 and would fix my issues)In fact, the 3rd tech only made the issue worse by leaving our attic return unscrewed and overfilling our unit with Freon that the 4th tech had to remove from our system. Upon leaving last night I was told that everything was corrected. Today - my home is slowly creeping up in temperature (presently 80 degrees inside, while set to 72). The company keeps trying to sell me a "maintenance plan" and I keep reiterating to EVERY one who pushes it that we have been getting tune ups/cleanings elsewhere and will only use them for warranty issues since we have had NOTHING but problems with them."

"Jason with Eagle Inspection is, without a doubt, THE BEST home inspector out there! He doesn’t just do his job—he CRUSHES it! Jason goes above and beyond every single time, and I couldn’t imagine trusting anyone else. As a Realtor, I use Jason for ALL my clients. Whether it’s a cozy South Philly rowhome or a stunning $1+ million property in Huntingdon Valley, Jason is always my go-to. And of course, he’s the only person I trust to inspect my own properties. I’ve been working with Jason for FIVE YEARS, and I honestly feel like I hit the jackpot finding him so early in my career. He’s the total package—knowledgeable, professional, and incredibly kind. In no particular order, here's just a glimpse of the exceptional things he has done for my clients: He found termites in my home—hiding behind a light switch of all places! I can’t imagine any other home inspector catching something so hidden and specific. He goes the extra mile by reviewing contractor bids and making sure my clients aren’t getting ripped off. Who else does that? No one! And Jason doesn’t charge for this incredible service! He works evenings and weekends, so my clients don’t have to rearrange their lives to schedule an inspection. One time, he even skipped an Eagles game (gasp!) because my client was leaving the country the next day. Talk about being reliable—Go Birds! Jason invests in top-notch gear, like advanced water detection tools and a high-tech drone, ensuring in-depth home analysis! Jason is an absolute powerhouse of knowledge, and his expertise is in a league of its own! While other home inspectors receive a quick certification, Jason brings the next-level experience of being a former builder. He often spots details other inspectors often miss. He does an excellent job at explaining everything to homebuyers. He makes them feel confident, informed, and READY to become homeowners. If you’re looking for the most thorough, reliable, and all-around incredible home inspector, JASON IS YOUR GUY! I recommend Jason with my whole heart. 10/10, A+++!"

About Us- OUR MISSION At Mattioni Plumbing, Heating & Cooling, our mission is to groom the next generation of technicians by honoring our values of 5-Star customer service and operational excellence. OUR STORY For over seventy years, Mattioni Plumbing, Heating & Cooling, Inc.'s dedicated employees have proudly served the Chester County, Pennsylvania area with their knowledgeable, courteous, and professional service. A.F. Mattioni & Sons Plumbing & Heating was founded on the Mattioni family farm along the (back then) very rural Route 113 outside of Downingtown, PA in 1948. The original barn which housed the company still stands! However, a newer, larger building on the family's property is the current home for the third generation of Mattioni’s to run the service-oriented business, but their commitment to quality has not changed. OUR PROMISE Our promise to you is to continue to grow and modernize so that we can provide you with the best products and services. We will continue to stick to our roots of caring deeply for both our customers and our employees. We promise to live this every day and to continue this legacy.

"Overestimated the time to complete an 9 hr job by scheduling a 16 hr window (2 guys x 8 hrs) and charged for 16 hrs regardless. I'd imagine they did the same for the materials, 60 feet of duct needed but they quoted 200. Got the job done, but probably twice the price of what it should have been."

Wood Stove Inspection questions, answered by experts

Yes, burning wood with Dutch elm disease is a safer way to dispose of it than, say, tossing it in with the rest of your yard waste, which could potentially allow it to spread to healthy trees. But it’s always a good idea to check with your local government to make sure you’re complying with any ordinances about removing diseased trees as well as burning brush piles.

The cost difference between a gas fireplace and a wood-burning fireplace depends on the type of wood-burning fireplace installed. The cost to install a gas fireplace tends to be cheaper than the cost to install a brick wood-burning fireplace. Installing a gas fireplace costs about $3,600 on average, whereas the cost to build a masonry wood-burning fireplace can go up to $30,000. The cost to install a wood-burning fireplace insert or stove can cost from $700 to $6,500, about the same as a gas fireplace on average.

Chimney liners often benefit from insulation, though it is not always required. Insulation helps improve the liner's efficiency by keeping flue gasses hotter, which enhances draft and reduces creosote buildup. It also prevents condensation, which can lead to corrosion. Insulation is important for chimneys on exterior walls or in colder climates. Some building codes may require insulation, so checking local regulations is essential.

No, there are no ventless pellet stoves. Because pellet stoves burn wood pellets, they produce wood smoke—which contains carbon monoxide. This harmful substance needs to be vented out of your living area. That said, there are vent-free and ventless fireplaces that run on natural gas and propane. These offer the heating and ambiance of a fireplace without the need to vent thick and hazardous wood smoke.

Fireplaces increase your home’s value by as much as 12%. If you're looking to increase your home's value, consider installing an electric fireplace insert or a custom electric fireplace. You can take freestanding or wall-mounted fireplaces with you when you leave, so they will have less of an impact on the value of the home.
