    I would highly recommend this business. Our house already had a gas fireplace when we purchased it…read morein 2020.The previous owner left the owners manual but we still didn't fully understand how to operate and maintain everything. The remote never worked consistently and the pilot light eventually stopped working as well. First my husband went to the showroom and the staff person was very accommodating and scheduled a service call. (We appreciated this approach, as opposed to trying to sell us a whole new unit, for thousands of dollars.) The technician came as scheduled. He was so knowledgeable and skilled that he was able to repair our unit, explain to us how to maintain it and give us general safety and operation tips within an hour. He was also polite and personable. We felt the charge was a good value and will schedule a return visit in two or three years.

    Can't say enough great things about the team at CR Gas Logs and Fireplaces! Starting with the…read morefolks in the showroom who went through my options to replace the gas logs I had installed by another local company 4 years ago. Two great installers for my new gas fireplace insert with blower. They were very professional and even left my house cleaner than when they arrived! Showed me how to use the thermostat remote and stayed around while the fireplace was running to be sure everything was working correctly. Only grabbed two names (Brian and Bill) so can't give a shout out to all four people - but thank you to ALL. This is another local company that is well worth checking out - prices were significantly better that other local competitors and the product I selected is top rated. So happy with all the decisions I made in this process.

    What a great company. The follow up, the follow through and the personality of the technicians all…read morestand out for thoroughness, caring and customer centricity. I received service quotations promptly, notification upon deposit receipt and quick turnaround for the install. Technicians were personable, professional and transparent about what would need longer term solutions. Inspection of my chimney and removal of the non-working gas fireplace revealed some structural issues that would have made full restoration to a working fireplace difficult, expensive and ultimately less efficient than a fireplace insert. I went with the Regency insert, which while smaller than I expected has turned out to be efficient and enjoyable. While an expensive choice, I'm thrilled to have a working fireplace again, and the ability to use it for a heat source as necessary.

May 22nd 2026 we had a home inspector come and do a detailed inspection for an unrelated circumstance and at that time we weren't aware of any issues. Once we received the official report and photos from the home inspection, it seemed familiar to me. So I pulled the chimney inspection and looked at them side by side. It was alarmingly clear that the home inspectors STRONG suggestion to obtain necessary repairs from a licensed contractor for EXACTLY what this company claimed to have already repaired months prior. Ultimately, no repairs were ever done and both inspection photos looked exactly the same which would indicate that this company allowed our chimney to remain out of code, an active safety and fire hazard and we used this trusting that it was now in working order. I provided them with the documentation and request that they refund the work they never did. It's been over 2 weeks now and I still have yet to be acknowledged which I presumed is what they'd do since the alternative would be to take accountability and at the very least apologize for the unsafe conditions they put my family as risk for and rightfully return our $5800.76 back to us. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and have been instead given lack of professionalism.

    We had been getting chimneys cleaned and other service from them for a long time, and they always…read morewere responsive and reliable. Most recently, a guy came with a drone and spent most of his time taking drone pictures of our chimney, and then gave us a real scare story about all the work we needed, at tens of thousands of dollars. We then went up onto the roof and took a close look. The flashing and caulking he said needed redoing was in perfect shape. The cement caps on the chimneys were solid and not crumbling as he claimed. The pointing was still solid after the most recent re-pointing. If he thought things were so bad from the drone pictures, he should have gone up on the roof himself to double check. The real problem though is that now we can't take his word for anything about the whole fireplace system, so we will need to go elsewhere in the future.

    I spent years researching inserts and grills, and spent time with Matchless Stove & Chimney, Best…read moreFire Hearth & Patio, and Northeastern Fireplace & Design. Here's what I found. The sales guy at Best Fire tried to rip me off to the tune of $1,500, so a decision was quickly made to never go there again, and it was narrowed down to Northeastern vs Matchless. I would compare it as Mercedes vs Subaru. If you have an extra couple thousand to burn, go with Matchless, you will not be disappointed. If you are cost conscious, go with Northeastern, you will not be disappointed. I ended up buying my grill from Matchless and both of my inserts from Northeastern.

Did not have the right tools for the job or the ladders . I finally got up on my roof to see what had been done because I am quite old 71 to be exact and found that he had smashed my air vent across the top of the roof as I have a metal roof . He tried to use a standard ladder to get to the top which he could not reach so he laid it down and stood on to ​ the edge in able to get a few inches so he could stretch on his tipping toes to reach the top which he never saw the top . I also witnessed with my own eyes and tried to put up that slid down my chimney which smashed ​ on my roof with him on top of it . Now if you would have bought the correct ladders like a step ladder he would not have done such a poor job . Extremely unhappy with this contractor I would not use him again or recommend him . Which I have all pictures to verify this . When he was here I called the owner told all of my problem that I saw and he told me to just to let him go he knew how to do his job well that apparently was not the case
