I called for information on my existing firebox. I was interested in purchasing an antique mantle and was checking if it was compliant and safe with my existing firebox. They were quick to respond and help me make a safe decision.

Marlon was professional and thorough in his inspection. The gas line was turned off, but he provided value feedback about the airflow in the house in relation to the fireplace. Great experience and I recommend him highly.
