    Side of porch steps that he never did but char

    Hired to do chimney and tuck pointing. After one week all tuck pointing began crumbling. Chimney had missing mortar on 20 bricks. Neighbors called police after seeing one guy on our roof shooting up something in his arm. Vodka bottle found in gutters by chimney. When confronted with the poor workmanship owner said not his problem. After disputing charges with Discover we were able to prove the awful workmanship on the brick work and recoup our money. Stay far away from this guY!

    I am submitting my experience for review.  Soldier Brick was an awful experience.  The owner Jonathan has a temper and an attitude.  Our contract was incomplete and the job was done wrong.  He argued with us via text message stating he fulfilled his contract terms and our requests for repairs were bizarre.  A bit of background on my husband, he works for a very reputable fireplace and chimney supply company started by a man who did chimney work with his father for years before starting the supply company.  We are not ignorant as to how things should be done. 1.  There is no drip edge.  A drip edge should extend beyond the edge of stack and divert water away from the chimney to the roof and gutters.  This keeps the stack from freezing and cracking. 2. There was exposed wood and mesh. 3. The cap was crumbling after just a few weeks. 4. They did not install a storm collar, we had one and they lost it. 5.  Corner stones at the base are cracking. 6.  They didn't put Tyvex over all wood surfaces before applying the stone.  Argued with us that he couldn't do it because there was rotten wood where my homes gutter attached to the roof.  Again the rotted board was going to be replaced when we painted the house and was not attached to the chimney.  Tyvex is thin sheet and could just be slid in and affixed above and below the overhang. 7.  They didn't tarp anything, the roof or the deck.  They had concrete all over my roof and deck.  The owner said it's not his responsibility to clean the concrete off my asphalt shingles.  That it won't ruin my roof to leave it there.  He also suggested we get the acid and clean up his mess.  Side note, one of his guys was spitting chewing tobacco on our roof too. 8.  They cracked the dormer behind the chimney.  Jonathan refuses to replace the shingles and repair the damage with anything other than chalk. 9.  The walkway quote was for a 3 foot wide walk made with a mold to look like cobblestone.  We specifically asked for it to be smooth so that is not a trip hazard for my 92 year old Grandfather.  The texture changes from smooth to rocky about 1/2 way down the path.  The path is about 2 feet wide, not 3 and didn't refund us for the reduction in width.  He didn't quote for edging which was needed due to the fact that the locking sand has no edge to keep it from spilling out.  Since they reduced the path width maybe they should have used the funds for the edging.  Instead we bought it. 10.  The first step off the driveway onto the walk was installed wrong and a trip hazard by 3/4 of an inch.  Since then he had his guy out to fix the drop, however he said no more locking sand. 11.    His bank wouldn't cash our cashiers check.  He texted me being upset about it.  All I can say was not my problem...it's your bank.  What that indicates is that his account was in the negative and his bank was holding the money. 12.  Overhead through open windows that the owner was in jail for domestic violence.  He couldn't get bonded out due to bench warrants. On Sunday his crew finally came out to repair the cap.  Once he showed up and we addressed with him the issues he again completely denied any responsibility for our roof.  He got snarky and belligerent and told me to suck his dick and fuck off in front of my husband.  My children heard this.  My neighbors heard this.  After knowing his domestic violence history this makes me incredibly uncomfortable.  He was literally provoking my husband to try to start a fight, it was obvious he wanted to throw punches.  I've heard this is not the first time he's had confrontations with customers when confronted with sub par craftsmanship. Here are pictures of the contact and the work he insists was done correctly. Here is a diagram of what a drip edge should look like: Here is his repair: Either way I don't wish this experience on anyone.  We paid $18,000 for this.  And it's still wrong.

    Did a fine job on repairing my cement/brick issues. Very reasonable rates and completed the job in one day. Would consider them again.

    Gas Tech Services really saved us this last winter…read more Right as the temps dropped, our furnace died and a full replacement just wasn't in the budget yet. I called around and either couldn't get anyone out quickly or the weekend/"emergency" rate was outrageous. A friend recommended Gas Tech Services, so I reached out a bit desperate. Steve Wallace got back to me fast, asked all the right questions, and suggested a natural gas wall heater as a temporary/backup heat source to get us through the season. He came out on a weekend, in the cold, and handled the gas line work and install like it was nothing. You can tell he's a pipe fitter by trade -- super clean run, everything to code, double-checked for leaks, and took the time to explain how to use it safely. What surprised me most was the price. For a last-minute, winter, weekend visit... I was expecting to get hit hard. His rate was more than fair, and honestly better than a couple places I called during normal hours. Benefits of dealing with small business, instead of these massive nationwide chains that seem to be taking over and controlling the rates is how I view it. The heater has been rock solid and kept the house comfortable enough that we weren't scrambling for space heaters or staying somewhere else. That install basically bought us time to replace the main furnace on our schedule instead of in panic mode. Professional, responsive, and actually cares that the job is done right. I'd absolutely use Gas Tech Services again and would recommend Steve to anyone who needs gas line work or a heating solution in a hurry.

    Steve was great! He showed up as promised and was clearly knowledgeable in fireplace repair. He…read moreupgraded our fireplace. We are super happy that we called Steve for our repair! Definitely recommend Gas Tech Services!

    I recently purchased a Fyre brand log and burner set at Shores Fireplace location in Lake Orion. I…read moreneeded a propane gas burner for up North and I was doing the install myself. I had a lot of questions and I got a lot of great answers. I don't remember the salesperson's name but, she was great. My daughter and I found the log set we wanted on display which really helps when deciding. They had the propane burner in stock, other stores required you to order one. I just installed the set today and it is beautiful, very well engineerd with great instructions, Frye offers a great selection and a great product. The price was good, less than Amazon and this is not a product you want to blindly order online. You need technical help like provided by Shores. You want to be able to be sure you are buying what you had in mind for a log set. I highly recommend Shores Fireplace, Lake Orion.

    BUYER BEWARE Horrible workmanship too high of pricing- had to frame the project 2'x, workers were…read moreno show constantly,one worker was relative who was a landscaper terrible atitude kicked my patio door. Made sure he never came back. Workmanship horrible, owners tells you can use more of "brown" fieldstone instead workers used more gray. Workers did not listen to customer. Never cleaned up, so I could my kitchen. Bricks crooked, mantel crooked on one of the sides, when pointing to owner "he said floor wasnt even"ordered incorrect insert logs,the grout or should a say cement is crumbling at the bases/hearth. The other side of FP with a new mantel was taken down 2'xs because of excessive gaps. One worker had to be on one side working and couldnt "touch" the other side of FP of a worker who never showed up.Owner is a "smooth" talker- increased pricing didnt change invoice. Then when it was time to light up the FP, it didn't work! One guy couldnt figure out the problem, then owner came out several times and finally took part of FP apart, found that they didnt build it correctly, workerss forgot to install a baffle inside the exhaust. They never pulled permits with city, remove a gas shut off valve, when house was built, said we didnt need it anymore. What! It took over 3 months to complet the project, neighbors even ask why took so long!

So I went to the store to talk to them but they lost all the information about my installation order. They don't own up to their mistakes and when I was leaving the owner asked me, "are you just wasting my time?" Funny, but there was another unhappy customer there while I was. Don't use these guys.

    1/22/2025 Mark and two gentlemen arrived on time to install our ventless gas logs in our fireplace…read more The guys put drop cloths over our newly tiled floors, brought in their tools and the accessories and began work. They used a 3' long drill bit to bore a hole thru two block walls and natural stone lining our fireplace built in 1958. They simply don't build fireplaces like this nowadays. Since we didn't have a mantle we chose a 60" long concrete mantle that went with the design of our home. They ran the gas line and assembled the burner, logs and decorative rock. Afterwards they showed us how to operate the remote w/a thermostat and also showed us how to operate the system manually. These guys were friendly, professional and pleasant to visit with. They tidied up and were off to their next job. The process started at 8:10am and finished around 10ish. I would recommend you give them a call if you are interested in ventless gas logs. We are happy with the service and sitting next to the additional heat gazing at the fire is nice and cozy on this cold January day.
