The gentleman who came and did the work was great. He was on time and was very careful while doing all the cleaning. He cleaned everything up so there was not a spot of dirt when he left. He also gave me great information on some of the new products that are available now that are more efficient to operate and I think we just might upgrade very soon. And we WILL be using Nickos do the project.
Description of Work: Our gas fire place had not been used in years so I had them come out and look at everything to make sure it would be safe to light. They checked it out very good then cleaned the firebox and logs. They replaced the embers and it looks and works like it was new.

They charge $89.00 to walk in the door. Then they charge $69.00/half hour and he was at my house for 45 minutes. Doug was the service man. He was on time and called ahead. He was very nice and answered all my questions. He showed me how to use the control.

Horrible overall. I bought a gas log fireplace system from Nickos for an existing townhouse. Gas log system was selected in their store to be installed in existing wood burning fireplace in townhouse having natural gas utilities. Installation went fine. System works well. Purchase included cost of tapping into the gas line that provides natural gas to the house and running a new additional line across the back of the house to the fireplace. Installer drilled into the outside wall of the house above the compressor for the house air conditioning system. In so doing, punctured the Freon line for the house air conditioning system. Installer made no attempt to locate the gas line first from inside the house. Nickos advised me that the line had been punctured and would be back in the springtime before air conditioning season to fix it. They never came. When I finally called them, I was advised to go ahead and get the repair done and they would reimburse me for the cost of repair and recharging the system with Freon. I had it done. Nickos would not honor the cost of repair. After six months of repeated attempts to get a response from Nickos, I quit trying.
Description of Work: Nickos provided fireplace gas log system for existing wood burning fireplace located on middle floor of three-story townhouse. Purchase included installation, including cost of providing and installing gas line to the fireplace. Gas line required tapping into the house system and running line to the fireplace. In the process of locating existing natural gas feed line for the house, their installer punctured Freon line for house air conditioning system. Nickos let us know what had happened and promised to fix the problem their installer created. Ultimately they did not and would not reimburse me for getting the line repaired.

Don't go somewhere else based on price, I have found that to save a buck you end up unsatisfied and in time will have the work done over by someone else. Save your money and simply come to Nickos, you will save money in the long run.
Description of Work: While the work has not been done yet, I am very comfortable with this company. From the start they are professional, friendly and will not try to sell you something that you don't need. They are great designers and are willing to go the extra step before and after the sale. I have delt with many home improvement contractors over the years and can smell a bad one a mile away. Do not worry here, its worth the drive to see the showroom, and if they do not have it, they ca get it.

We had used Nickos for previous chimney sweep on old chimney and to remove an old fireplace insert. Their previous work was very good, so we trusted them for the wood stove. We purchased the new stove in September and were waiting for an old chimney to be demolished and a new roof to be installed before having the stove installed. Nickos did not pressure is to install it faster than we needed and held the stove in the warehouse for two months waiting on us. They called the day before scheduled and arrived in the morning on-time. Two very professional installers spent all day installing the stove, stove-pipe, and accessories. They did an excellent job and the fireplace looks great.
Description of Work: Purchase and install new Lopi Endeavor stove with 18 foot stove pipe.

Everyone was professional and courteous from start--my initial phone call--to finish--the men who did the installation cleaned up carefully and took away all of their own trash. I love my new logs, and I couldn't be more pleased.
Description of Work: I had a new gas line installed to my formerly decorative fireplace, and vent-free gas logs put in.

I had a severe problem with this company. When my air conditioning system stopped working, they said they would come back in the springtime to fix it, but they didn't. Then they said I should fix it and they would take care of the bill, so I did so and then they refused to pay them.
Description of Work: I had a fireplace that burnt wood and I wanted a gas one, so I hired them to do the job. They had to run a gas line to feed the new fireplace. To do so, they took a chance and drilled into the side of my house but picked a bad place, so instead of intercepting the gas line they punched the refrigeration line for my air conditioning system and it was left in-operative.
