Gas Fix did an excellent job of repairing my fireplace. When my fireplace first stopped working, I called a nearby fireplace repair company to give me a repair quote. They told me I would need a new fireplace and would have to break the surrounding stone to install it. Total quote was over $10 000. All due to a faulty mercury switch which cannot be replaced.
Then I found GasFix on Homestars with reviews describing how others with a faulty mercury switch had a repair instead of replacement. They explained that the upgrade kit will include all the control/operational parts. The box, glass, gasket and burner would be original. The upgrade part is the change to the current control/safety system that is used in all gas fireplaces since the mercury flame switch was discontinued as the fast acting safety shutoff. The parts include a new style gas valve, pilot assembly with duel sensors, thermocouple, thermoplie, electrode, wiring, piezo ignitor and mounting bracket if needed.
Jason was great setting up the appointment. He responded to all my questions promptly. Scott was punctual and polite. He finished the job during the expected time frame and cleaned up once finished.
Gas Fix fixed my fireplace for exactly what they quoted me for. I would highly recommend them. In fact, I already did. A nearby friend ended up using them and was equally impressed.
