F&S Fireplace systems came out to Santa Cruz to install two gas fireplaces I had purchased online. I highly recommend!! Kevin was so thorough and responsive! Carefully helped me understand the challenges and requirements of installing these for me to work with plumbing and electrician ahead of time. And then his crew came today with new flues and fully installed! He was highly responsive, great communications, very timely and effective. I am sitting in front of my new fireplace happily writing this note! read more

F&S Fireplace Systems - New gas fireplace installed in framing !!( now we just need to Sheetrock, mud and paint lol) - Fireplace Services Near Me

Very good service we're very quick to respond to a small problem. I recommend F&S for anyone looking for a fireplace insert.

Great people, wonderful service. F&S Systems has taken care of our two fireplaces for years. Their work is alway thorough, and reasonably priced. Recently the fireplace in our master bedroom stopped working due to dead batteries. We replaced the batteries but, in doing so, managed to disable the link between the remote control and the fireplace. Within an hour we received a response to our voicemail from Kevin at F&S who coached my wife and I by phone on how to restore remote control of the fireplace. Within 30 minutes we were up and running again. Kevin was delightful to work with, provided us with an address, and left the amount of payment up to our discretion. We promptly mailed them a check that matched the value of Kevin's help. We appreciate their service so much, and we want to make sure they remain eager to work with us again in the future. read more

Kevin and his team were efficient, on time, communicated every step of the way and were able to take care of our fireplaces which hadn't worked in years. Thank you! read more

What did I love about this business? Let me start with the fact that I was able to contact Kevin on Yelp, set an appointment and get reminders here too. Then he confirmed via phone and let me know he'd be on time and what to expect. He and an assistant were right on time, wearing masks and respectful of my home and family. They set up a clean workspace and took the time to tell me what they saw and what they were doing. Fair price for good work -- and I'm back enjoying my beautiful and warm fireplace. Recommend F & S in a heart beat! read more

We have commercial-grade SunPak gas heaters, 2 of which were igniting but not giving off heat properly. Kevin discovered spiders clogging the pilot tubes and cleaned them out as well as addition spider webs around the heating elements. To our delight, all heaters are back to full operation. Kevin was very professional, knowledgeable, friendly and courteous. I would highly recommend Kevin and F&S. read more

F&S Fireplace Systems - SunPak Gas Heaters - Fireplace Services Near Me

We have had our fireplace for a few years, and wanted to have it serviced. They quickly found a time that worked. Kevin showed up on time and was very helpful in replacing the logs, and explaining more about our remote. When he was finished the fan was much quieter. Perfect service. read more

I needed my fireplace serviced. They were prompt, neat and efficient. I will use them again.

Very happy with the quality work of this company and their responsiveness. Would highly recommend and would hire again

As many of the reviews mentioned, Kevin was responsive and came out to install a fireplace switch + valve in a reasonable time frame. My average rating is due to 2 things: The switch that got installed wasn't what I wanted -- I asked for the simple on/off toggle version but he installed a slider that was supposedly superior but just not what I wanted. Also, he installed everything during my remodel -- once I moved in I discovered my fireplace didn't turn on. I saw him at my neighbor's house recently but he refused to stop by for even a minute and instead directed me to PG&E. Anyways, as of today my fireplace still doesn't turn on. read more

Thank you, Kevin for your service. This is the second or third time you have serviced our fireplaces. You were able to get us on your schedule within a week. The clogged line was cleaned out and no parts needed. That speaks volumes to honesty. I commend the great customer service and anticipating questions we may ask. On the day of the appointment, you reaffirmed the arrival time. Thank you for suggesting the next service should include both fireplaces on the same day to save money. We were having each serviced on alternate years. Your additional tips and suggestions are appreciated. Kevin is personable with a good sense of humor. F&S is an outstanding family-owned company. We highly recommend them. read more

Kevin Jr. took a look at my gas fireplace that wasn't turning on manually or with the remote. He cleaned the glass front, dusted out the unit, rearranged the ceramic logs correctly, replaced the batteries in the remote wall switch, and lit the fireplace pilot light, and it works fine now!! He was friendly, professional, tidy, and worked efficiently and quickly. They keep you very updated with texts and emails. And I think he said their service comes with a 6-month warranty, which will even transfer to a new homeowner. Great service with a smile! Recommend. read more

Simply outstanding service. Highly recommended. Kevin was on time with parts ready to go. The whole job was done in less than 20 min.

We've had several issues with our Cozy Heat gas insert since it was installed (by some other "tech") in 2018ish. I neglected the issues until 10/2021 when I called F&S. Since then, Kevin has been outstanding and has stood by his word. I can't speak highly enough of him, his professionalism and most importantly, his willingness to help. He has since been to my house, located slightly outside of the service area, three times to address separate issues with the unit. The fireplace works like a champ now. Kevin, my family and I sincerely thank you and appreciate your services. For those reading, I don't typically take the time to post. I highly recommend Kevin with F&S for any fireplace issues. read more

They followed through with everything they told us. Charged a reasonable rate. And got our fireplace working for the holidays. Trustworthy service provider. read more

F&S was recommended by a friend of ours in the neighborhood and I am very impressed with their response time and work. They were very clear with their process and expectations!

I needed to use F & S again, because all of a sudden, the pilot light was off. Kevin came out very quickly, cleaned the unit which allowed the pilot light to go on, he scraped the back of the unit which looked white from all the burning, piled the logs so you could not see that white residue, and perfectly cleaning the glass insert. The unit looks brand new and operates beautifully. Thank you, Kevin read more

Our Technician just finished the job. So polite, professional, arrived right on time. The services we've had in the past with the 'original' company fall so terribly short compared to the great service from F &S Fireplace System. I'd give ten stars if possible. Highly recommended F&S By the way, they service Hollister now. read more

Great service! Arrived early. Took care with the cleaning and repair. Let us know what needed to be replaced and took care of it on the spot. Definitely recommended. read more

Kevin and his crew are top notch. They were on time as scheduled. They repaired our Kozy in an hour. We have had a ghosting problem that was never corrected by the original installer in over a year. Our fireplace is working perfectly and looks better than when first installed. Kevin took his time to explain everything about the operation and maintaining it. I highly recommend them for repairing and installing a new unit when needed. If there was a 6 or higher they would receive that rating read more

friendly, clean, knowledgeable, timely a great experience read more

The two Kevin's have annually serviced our gas fireplace for several years. They schedule us within a week of a request, are on time, friendly and clean. You do need to pay by cash or check. Definitely recommend them. read more

Kevin was great when he came to service our gas fireplace. The fireplace was not staying on when the flame was lit. He was very thorough in taking apart the fireplace and determining the real problem. He had the part we needed in his truck so we didn't have to wait another 2 weeks for the parts to be shipped. After repairing the module, he thoroughly cleaned our fireplace since it hadn't been cleaned since it was installed. He also cleaned up the surrounding area and left everything nicer than when he first got here. His price is fair for repairing fireplaces and only charges when the job is finished. If I could, I would give 10 stars to Kevin and F&S Fireplace Systems. read more

Kevin knows what he's doing. I had two different fireplaces in my home, installed by 2 different contractors. I had issues with both fireplaces and Kevin came in and knew exactly how to fix both. He is the right guy to call when you need your fireplace worked on. Looking forward to winter now! read more

This was the only company I found out there that would re-attach a back wall in my firebox. Apparently, these jobs can be tricky and take some time to do. Kevin came out and was very polite and personable and completed the task within 15 minutes of his arrival. It was just a matter of attaching the back wall to the bracket that was already intact. He said that he wasn't going to charge me for doing that, which I was totally surprised to hear! The jog was initially estimated at $300. I told him that I was going to give him a little something regardless. Looking back on it all, I should have given them a little more. I will definitely contact them again when the need arises, and recommend them to my neighbors. It's so rare to come across a company with such integrity these days. I just am blown away by their honesty and selfless business practices. read more

Ok guys, you won me back! Kevin came back out and was as frustrated as me. He replaced the entire fireplace with a different make and model and told me he was going to hold the manufacturer of the original one accountable for all the problems we had. He didn't charge me - honoring the warranty likely beyond one year. He also cleaned the glass - a wonderful touch given that the muck on the glass is definitely the work of my 11 year old son who loves to sit by the fire. I also appreciate that they care about what folks say on this forum and asked me to update. We are happy with the new fireplace - I even think it is warmer than the old one as well. Thank you Kevin and Daniel! read more

Kevin had come several months ago to replace the igniter in my fireplace. Did a great job, and he was courteous and explained things as he went. Last week my fireplace began acting up and I called Kevin. He told me this visit would be under warranty. We scheduled a service for the following Monday. He came, he saw, he conquered. No charge, as he had stated. My fireplace works better -and more quietly - than it ever has in 10 years! Highly recommended! read more
