I was already aware that the chimney needed some repairers. The quote to repair the chimney was very thorough, both written and verbal overview. I appreciated the 'soft heads up' as to the cost of the repairs. Indeed, it was a hard pill to swallow ... lol. Thanks for a job well done.

It started ok and would run good , except when you let off the gas after it was hot, it would die occaisionally. Deal's put new everything on it and rebuilt the carburator. They also told me it had water in the gas. It cost $90 to fix. When I went to use the saw a month or so later, it was still dying when hot. I needed the saw over the summer so I did not call them until July or so. I told two people there over the phone what it was doing and my wife was going to drop it off. She took it in, they took it out back, started it, cut a piece of wood,and declared it ok. Of course the first time I used it it was dying when it got hot. I called them again and took it back down. I called them to find out what was wrong and they told me the piston and cylinder were bad. I asked why they put $90 into the saw when the piston and cylinder were bad. I also asked if they checked the compression in the beginning and they seemed clueless. The owner told me to bring it back and they would check it out. After a week I called about it and they didn't know what was up with it but would find out and call me. After another week I called again (since they never called) and they said I could come and get it. Their final solution was that since it had been so long since their initial work, that they were not responsible for putting $90 worth of work in it even though it had a bad pision and cylinder. Now that I have gotten it back, it will not start!! Before it would start and run, but would die sometimes when hot. This place is very unprofessional!! They are unresposive and don't seem to know what is going on. When all I wanted to know was why would they put new parts on a saw that had a bad piston and cylinder, they just blamed it on me, saying it was something I had done since they supposedly fixed it in March. The reality is, it was doing the same thing I took in for them to fix in March. If I had known the piston and cylinder were bad I would not have spent $90 on the saw. It is a simple thing to check compression. I think they just put as much into a saw as they can and hope nothing else is wrong. Most of the people on the front desk seemed like they didn't really know what was going on most of the time. I will never go back!!"},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/tn/clinton/deal%27s-small-engine-shop-reviews-5179832.htm"},"position":9},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Aire Serv of Knoxville","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"TN","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Andrew H."},"reviewBody":"After a routine inspection, the service tech. said that i had a cracked heat register which could be potentially dangerous, and that by law he was required to disable my gas furnace.

"I called for a repair on a toilet, told then that I already had the replacement part, just wanted them to replace it for me. Being a 'Gold' member, they told me it would be $30.00 to just come out and check it out and take care of it. They arrived on-site, I showed him my Kohler replacement part and the tech proceeded to spend close to 45 minutes trying to figure out his tablet, only to find out he was getting me 4 quotes ready. two of which were to replace the toilet, one to replace all the parts and one to use there value at a cost of $248.00 dollars. (He could have already replaced what I needed) I proceeded to ask him to leave, he charged me the $30.00...what a joke. I have use My Pro Plumber in the past, but never again, this was unbelievable. I am not sure what they are doing these days, but if you need something minor, do not call these guys. I filled out their survey, the owner called, missed the call, I tried to return the call two times, left messages."

FAQs for gas fireplace repair projects in Karns, TN
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.

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.
