What customers are saying about us
"I had a rough concept for a 2-sided fireplace for our 100+ year old home. I went to the store and Rey (Jr) helped me look at options and assured us they could handle all aspects of the job—not just installing the fireplace but also the stone work, gas lines, and help with the design. They quoted a firm price and kept to it even though there were some changes along the way. The workers were all very polite and cleaned up the area well each day. Overall, we are very happy with the process, the cost, and the quality of the work."
— Virginia Pace
