Great professional service. Helpful, complete and accurate. So very grateful to have our gas fireplace working again!! read more

Kevin was excellent! He came out and carefully took a look at our issue. He was honest in sharing that the issue wasn't the fireplace but a roof issue. He didn't charge us for coming out, and that right there tells me what kind of business they run. Excellent customer service and one who works and cares for their customers! Most definitely F & S Fireplace will be the ones we call back when we need it serviced! Thanks so much guys! read more

Great Service, fair pricing and perfect customer service! On time, extremely neat and very knowledgeable with the ins and outs of the profession. Serviced a free-standing gas fireplace last summer, went to use the unit late last fall, and it wasn't working properly. Called Ken, he agreed to honor his service warrantee to come back and fix the problem, which he did! He also sent me a link for a new remote, telling me if I purchased it, he would return to program and reset the fireplace. I am recommending F & S Fireplace systems with a 5-star rating. read more

We had our wood stove pipe replaced. The service was exceptional, employees were knowledgeable, tidy, helpful and friendly. There was no charge for coming out twice to confirm what was needed before offering the estimate. Definitely recommend there services. read more

My rating should really be 4.5 stars if I had the choice. The only reason for not giving 5 stars was the LONG delay in getting the correct parts to fix my Valor Legend fireplace insert. I won't get into the details for the delay except to say that the lengthy wait (a few months) was painfully long for the entire winter season. However, the senior people at F & S ultimately did deliver, and they had the skills to fix my fireplace. This strongly contrasts with a horrible experience that I had with another fireplace repair service. During the long wait for F & S to get the necessary parts, I foolishly hired another fireplace repair service, which promised me that my problem was an easy fix with no new parts. They ripped me off with a $500+/- repair that lasted 2 weeks, and my attempts to resolve were met with no return phone calls from them. F & S IS HONEST & CAPABLE! Their repair was quite extensive and involved the replacement of some major parts that usually last far longer. One component perhaps didn't fail; however, it needed to be correctly matched with a component that did fail (that's an engineering assumption that required matched sets to work). Their price was fair, and they did a professional job. My fireplace continues to work fine two years later. I strongly recommend F & S Fireplace Systems. read more

Kevin replaced several components and successfully operationalized our unit. His expertise and professionalism were evident throughout the process. I highly recommend his services. read more

Highly recommend this business! Best customer service I've experienced in a very long time. read more

I called F & S fireplace three years ago to work on my propane heating stove and Kevin came out. He had the problem diagnosed and we got the parts ordered right away. When the parts came in he came up and installed them and explained how to keep the stove clean and maintained. He also did a complete cleaning and systems check so It was an easy choice to call them again when my stove was acting strange. Kevin came out and did another thorough cleaning and systems check and got it up and running properly. He is very knowledgeable and always very courteous and contentious about keeping things clean so there is no mess. I highly recommend F & S fireplace systems for all of your fireplace needs. read more

Prompt returning my call & quick to get someone out to our house. Technicians were amazing & very knowledgeable about fireplace sweeping. We bought our house in April and wanted the chimney swept before using our wood burning stove. So glad we did. Previous owner never had it swept. Vent pipes were full of ash. Explains why there was soot on everything (walls, cabinets, shutters etc.) when we moved in. Highly recommend F & S!!!! read more

Kevin does amazing work. He's been taking care of my older Mendota gas log fireplace for years and is a total fireplace expert. He always provides excellent service, helpful advice, and a meticulously clean and neat servicing. It's a very well-run company owned by Daniel Snyder. They used to be located in San Jose but relocated in Linden across the Bay. It's quite a drive so I feel very fortunate that he kept me as a client. And he's very affordable, which I also appreciate on a fixed income. I highly recommend F&S, David, and Kevin! read more

Kevin is awesome!! Glad I found his service. He got our unit working again and for his base price was a very fair transaction.

I don't write many reviews however after many years of providing outstanding service, its time to acknowledge the excellent workmanship that Kevin of F & S Fireplace Systems has delivered over 20+ years. Always responsive in scheduling an appointment and consistently explaining the issues/services, repair solutions and cost. Very experienced, knowledgeable and efficient. Five star service from start to finish. read more

I was so impressed with Kevin. Hadn't realized my gas fireplace insert wasn't working until early December, and my long-time business for service has been sold. Fortunately, I got a reference to Kevin from the new owners. By then of course it was a long wait. Today I knew it was worth the wait. Very experienced and professional. The cost was exactly what I was quoted and very fair. He also was able to replace the remote with a much better setup for me at half the cost of the old one that didn't work. We are so lucky to have found a professional, experienced service for our 20-year old gas insert - works and looks like new. read more

This company installed our new gas stove and they were there on time, installation was done neatly and all was cleaned up when they left. We ha d a problem a few months later with the stove and they came out and took care of it. A+ service. read more

Excellent service and a pleasure to have Kevin work 9n our gas fireplace. I would highly recommend them

They showed up on time to replace our old fireplace insert with a newer unit. The installation fee was a flat $650. They did not want to replace the steel piping that runs from the fireplace insert to the top of the chimney, claiming it was "like new." When my family member insisted they do the full installation they were charging us for, since they were not discounting the labor at all and the new parts were ready to go, one of the installers reluctantly agreed and then told my family member he had "better shuttup." The replacement of these pipes, which were over 20 years old, only took 20 minutes. After the installation, I observed the fireplace was not level. They assured me it was just because the screen was not seated in its tongue and groove fitting on the insert correctly (which would have been their mistake). I asked them to come and fix it via email and it has been over a month without a reply. The fireplace was not level because they left a gas fitting wedged in between the tile hearth and fireplace insert. See photo. Unprofessional, unresponsive and sloppy. read more

Our experience with Kevin and F&S Systems was top notch. We were referred to Kevin after another company was unable to remedy our fireplace issue. Kevin was responsive immediately; visited our home once to diagnose the issue and propose a solution. Within minutes he had ordered a new part and within weeks we were back on the calendar for the install. Not only did he fix the fireplace he cleaned it as well. Kevin is professional, courteous and honest. He helped us solve our issue while other companies could have charged us 10 times what we actually needed to pay. Call Kevin today! read more

My experience was very similar to Myra's review below. Kevin was great -- he came on time, was professional, figured out the problem quickly (dead spiders in the pipes that needed to be cleaned out) and fixed it without needing any other parts. The last company I had come out (Fireplace Element) told me I needed to pay more than $2000 and replace the system. $300 feels like a bargain by comparison and well worth fixing the fireplace. The only tricky part was setting up the appointment because they don't take calls during working hours, and then you only have a few hours after 5 to contact them to set up the appointment. Their automated text and e-mail system is also very convenient. read more

Kevin was amazing. It took him less than five minutes to figure out what the problem was. He was on time and professional. The last company (Nova) I dealt with gave me two different diagnoses and told me it was going to cost $2000 to replace the system. Kevin came in, figured out the problem in 5 minutes and fixed it in less than 10 minutes. Thank you, Kevin! read more
