This company has great communication and they completed in 2 visits…read more My fireplace was in bad need of repair with cracks and unusable dampner and they did a great job. They even fit me in before Christmas ahead of schedule. Wasn't cheap but considering amount of work done I think it's been totally worth it. We've enjoyed several fires during this abnormally cold winter. Would recommend this company they know what they're doing.

Steve and his team replaced our tired old gas log fireplace with a new, beautiful, full-enclosure gas fireplace. From the beginning of the project until the end, Steve and his team were friendly, courteous, prompt to reply, and genuinely took pride in their work. Steve made sure that at the end of the project, he was there to ensure that the inspection passed without any issues. He also made sure that we, as the customers, had an opportunity to ask any questions we had about the operation of the fireplace insert. Steve and his team also refreshed our 20+ year old gas lantern in the front yard, replacing the old mantle system with a beautiful gas flame and refinishing it from top to bottom. We could not recommend Steve the Fireplace Guy more highly. You will not regret selecting Steve over the competition.

There was an initial mixup about the appointment time, but that was soon sorted, and Saul contacted me prior to his arrival and arrived on time.

He also provided what next steps would be for a more permanent solution. It was a very professional, friendly service call.

The crew that came to install the insert were competent and efficient. They solved several unusual problems particular to my ancient masonry. The repairs and insert look great, I have had two other chimney companies problem solve for me this year but MCP was by far the best. I could not have asked for more responsive and better service than I received from Shawn and MCP.

I requested a quote for installation of my reclaimed solid walnut mantle shelf. I was quoted $300…read moremore than what I paid, $1,500.00, which was a pretty penny. Guy was nice because he looked around my home and saw money. When I received the quote and asked how long it would take, no response was given. Big red flag-shady. Did it myself for fifty bucks in materials, which included a $10 masonry bit (tool to use again), and it took three hours. Five hundred an hour is fifty dollars more than what I pay my lawyer. Save your money, choose another company Or do it yourself.

My technician was 40 minutes early (received a call from Tolbard's asking if that was okay). I was…read morehappy to have the service earlier than scheduled. The tech was friendly and engaging. I detailed a particular issue I was experiencing and the tech began work on servicing my fireplace. He removed the fan that was the source of a rattling sound, cleaned it out well and reinstalled. All parts of the fireplace itself (fake wood logs, etc) were removed and cleaned. Upon reinstallation of the fan and buttoning everything back up he was ready to go in a little over an hour. I paid $245 ($205 inspection & $40 for level one cleaning). Generally speaking I felt the value was okay given the scope of the cleaning and extra attention to the fan creating the rattling noise. The exterior of the fireplace looked good with the glass being crystal clear. I happened to check the fan about a half hour later as it hadn't yet turned off and discovered the bottom area (below the fireplace box) had only been partially vacuumed; I attached the pictures. Given that the inspection cost so much and the cleaning wasn't spectacular - I'll do the work myself next year and save my money... As for now, I'll run the vacuum hose under the fireplace to clean out the dust and hair and call it a day. My tech was very knowledgeable and personable but given my experience for what I paid, I won't likely use Tolbard's again unless something that I can't fix is broken.

I did a web search looking for someone to service my propane fireplace which was having issues. I…read morehad see Tolbard trucks here and there around town, but I was not familiar with what they did. Anyways, I sent a request through their website and held my breath wondering how many hours or days it would take to hear back from them. Low and behold, I got a call back the next morning and an email. The staff was great on the phone answering my questions. I also got a 2 hour window date of service, which is pretty normal for this line of work. I also got a follow up call the morning of to confirm, which was pretty cool...so as to not waste my time. The service technician showed up and fixed my furnace in no time flat. Everything works just great. Was it expensive? It was around $200...and my guess is it only took 30 min or less. However, I've had problems with this stupid furnace for 4+ years...it works now and then. He figured out the tiny issue and fixed it and I'm pleased! The service fee was a little steep just to show up for local service...but I doubt I will need Tolbard often. So I paid the fee. All in all, very happy with the service.
