repair pilot light, fan, etc.

My service man , Dwayne, explained what he was doing as he took my fireplace apart and pointed out the problem. I had expected it would cost about $1000.00 as it was a very old model and I was pleasantly surprised that my "gizmo" just needed a bit of cleaning as the accumulated dust was very thick and causing my fireplace to not function at it's best. Dwayne laid a rug down so as not to make a mess and he was courteous and thorough. He also told me not to turn off my pilot as the fireplace unit works best if it is kept on throughout the year. He was professional and I will continue using "GasFix" repair because I trust them and have always been more then happy with their service over the last 25 years. They are No. 1 in my book !

What could this company do to improve their services?
It already provides great service so I can not add anything.

The "gizmo" that needed a bit of cleaning was the Mercury Flame Switch. This is brittle, fragile component on your Instaflame fireplace that is now an obsolete part. Once that fails, the conversion is a new gas valve and a new pilot assembly, which we always have on our vehicle. Thank you for being a Gas Fix customer the last 25 years. Whether you require service to a fireplace, furnace, hot water tank (or tankless) or pool heater, please do not hesitate to contact us! ~ Jason ~

gas fireplace cleaning and maintenance

Prompt, thorough and friendly service. Unfortunately I didn't ask the technician's name! Husband thought bill was a little pricey. Fireplace looks amazing though! I would use this company again and recommend it to others.

Thank you, Vera, for your review. Many contractors will use inexperienced technicians that go in at a much cheaper rate who light the pilot and clean the glass calling that a safe fireplace. Gas Fix invests in manufacturer's training and we invest in a huge selection of parts and our staff are top notch service technicians. Knowledgeable, experienced staff are an asset and do cost more. Technicians like Dwayne, who serviced your Drolet Ultra Flame, has over 20+ years experience with gas fireplaces. Many technicians may not be familiar with a 15+ year old Drolet fireplace but our technicians are. Aside from vacuuming the unit, we also use an air compressor to get to those places the vacuum can't get. With any fireplace we touch, we always check the safety on the gas valve, we always do a draft test on the ventilation and we always do a carbon monoxide test. We also check the electrical components, as required, and can pinpoint issues with a fireplace as opposed to "swapping" parts till something works. Experience is our difference and we have been solving gas fireplace problems since 1982. We do offer better value and as noted, your fireplace looks amazing! ~ Jason ~

safety check and maintenance

I now feel so relieved to know that I can ask for Jeff Da Costa to come when our fireplace needs to be serviced and safety checked. He was efficient, clean, knowledgeable and friendly.

Gas Fireplace Repair

I have had a non-working gas fireplace for years. We had others come in and they told us we needed a new one (and tried to sell us one) I came across Gasfix on line and thought I would give them a try. Dwayne and Brian came out and did an amazing job! I now have a working fireplace for a fraction of what a new one would cost. They cleaned it up nicely too including that stubborn glass dirt. Quick reliable friendly service! Thank you

Thank you Liz for calling Gas Fix to repair your Heat-N-Glo gas fireplace. We field many phone calls where another contractor wants to sell you a new fireplace as opposed to repairing an existing model. It may be they don't have the parts on their vehicle or don't know how to replace a gas valve. Our technicians carry approximately 15 different gas valves on the vehicle and know how to install them. If you have any issues in the future with your fireplace or another gas appliance, please do not hesitate to contact us! ~ Jason ~

New Gas Fireplace Repair

I purchased a new gas fireplace insert & it did not work properly right from the start. The original problem was a faulty part covered by warranty, but the unit was still not operational. Scott subsequently saved the day! My appointment was quick and Scott was punctual. He was professional, friendly, and had a wealth of knowledge. His expert trouble-shooting identified a problem with the original installation by the store that sold me the insert. As I had experienced other problems with the store, I did not wish to deal with them, but rather entrust the matter to Scott. He was able to obtain and replace the proper mechanism (that should have been done during installation) the same day. I could not be more pleased with the service provided by Scott, and I am relieved that my fireplace is now safe and functioning. I will continue to utilize the expertise of Scott and his company from this point forward.

Gas Fireplace Repair

This is only the second time I have required repairs to this fireplace in 25 years. Both times GasFix has been my go-to repair company. Both times they responded quickly. Their ability to troubleshoot the issue and effect repairs in a quick manner astounded me. Scott, Dwayne and his partner today were clean, efficient, knowledgeable and very personable. Thanks guys.

Thank you for your review, Gary and choosing Gas Fix to be your "go-to" company for repairs to your gas appliances. As your unit has a Mercury Flame Switch, that will need to be upgraded in the future. Once that time comes, that is a repair that we would be able to do for you. Not only do we specialize in the repair and maintenance of gas fireplaces but we also service gas pool heaters, water heaters and furnaces. We look forward to hearing from you in the future! ~ Jason ~

Servicing of 3 gas fireplaces

It was a challenge to find a qualified person to come and service the 3 fireplaces we have in the house we recently moved into. I found Gasfix and Jeff arrived today and was able to get all of the fireplaces up and working. I was very impressed with his knowledge and problem solving abilities. I will definitely have them back to do yearly servicing on the fireplaces.
