Not a huge selection, but again, they are being phased out on the natural fireplaces. My Husband and his Brother did the installation themselves bc KBL's guy was having surgery and doing it ourselves saved a lot on labor. Kevin at KBL was fantastic from start to finish. Excellent salesman and willing to talk and educate you on whatever you need in regards to your home build. He also promised to take back whatever parts we didn't need after the installation....and he did. We are now having some warranty work and we feel confident it will all go fine. KBL is lucky to have Kevin!

Though they discovered extra work needed to complete the work the price remained the same. The insulation they installed in the fireplace flue has vastly improved the sound quality and temperature of the room. Highly recommend Tyson Kilgore, his crew and company.

Now in 2023, I wanted it cleaned again and inspected since we had used it quite a bit for 3 years. Chimney Doctor came out and I was impressed. They protected my floors and white fireplace from dust and debris. There was 4" of gunk up in my fireplace chimney that he cleaned out. He also put the camera up to see if the chimney was healthy and made recommendations as well as sending me quotes for those options. Overall, his visit today was reasonably priced and I think the work was very thorough. They did say they don't normally come this far to my small town but I'm glad they did because I would recommend them again.

We have used Force Masonry for two parts of a larger project (finishing a two car garage into…read moreliving space). They just finished blocking up both garage doors with room for a door and window. The finished work was fantastic, and timely! Joe, Taylor, and Mike were professional, very kind, willing to answer questions (and be a part of the discussion for the larger project) and they always leave the place clean and in great shape when they are done. Masonry is an investment for sure, but we are glad for the great work of Force Masonry, and the value of the work is worth it. They are a great company, and we plan to use them again, when we have another masonry project.

Giving this company even 1 star makes them over-rated. We first hired them to replace the seal…read morebetween the patio and house. That went ok - but it didn't really hold up all that well. When the manager came to provide the estimate we also discussed putting a top layer over our driveway - we'd already had it replaced once (different contractor) and it was extremely pitted. I had to provide 1/3+ payment up front to hold onto a spot in their schedule. Spring came and went. Summer came and went. I contacted them several times - and finally they came mid-late fall. Once the snow started coming down they were not able to finish the job. So our driveway was scraped, full of cement dust, and shockingly white - that lasted for over 6 months. Finally they returned late spring to finish up what was started. I spoke with the manager and the crew and told them the bright white finish was not going to work and they needed to tone it down. I was PROMISED they would do that and make it less white/more gray. Our driveway was finally completed - and it's BRIGHT WHITE. Apparently they didn't have enough 'gray' to add so they just skipped it. Now we have to wear sunglasses just to get the mail (on a cloudy day!) and the edges and seams area already deteriorating - and it's been less than 6 months. I wasn't going to give such a bad review - and put it off for months. Unfortunately, every time I go outside I'm reminded of what a poor job this was. I would never, ever, recommend them for anything.
