Need to locate a reasonable repair company.

Had Top Hat out of Opelika come out last year to inspect my chimney and they stated the fireplace would not draw properly and therefore needed a flue insert installed and some other minor firebox repair work done – Estimate $6,000 to $7,000.

So discussed alternatives with them and ended up with agreeing on ventless propane logs to be installed. They never could accommodate my schedule so never had the work completed. Called back this year and they want $1,800.00 ($400.00 higher than last year) to perform the following including the price of the logs:

· Seal off chimney at damper and chimney cap, then install a vapor barrier. This was to ensure condensation does not build up in the old chimney leading to deterioration.
· Install 30” ventless gas logs (cost of logs about - $750.00)
· Minor repair to firebox
· Paint firebox black
· Install gas logs (propane line already in place)

Does anyone know of someone who would come to the lake to re-bid this work, as I felt their price last year was a little high, now they are beyond ridiculous.

Any help would be most appreciated!!
