"Work accomplished earlier than expected, they called with earlier appointment when someone cancelled. Showed up as scheduled and did an excellent job. Use a tarp in front of fireplace to prevent getting carpet dirty. Justin and his new helper, Justin, both professionals."

"Brandon was professional and knowledgeable. He installed new surround and replaced a 50-year-old gas fireplace - left no mess and spent time with me on operating the new unit. I highly recommend BCS Chimney. I'm all set to stay warm and enjoy watching the fire."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

Chimney sweeps perform three levels of inspections:

  1. Level One: This is a basic annual inspection, often a visual inspection during cleaning, which is the most affordable.

  2. Level Two: This stage is ideal when selling or buying a home as it involves an inspection of the attic and roof, which is moderately priced.

  3. Level Three: This is a very thorough inspection that should take place after major storms or earthquakes, which is the most costly type of inspection.

The timeframe for a gas fireplace installation typically ranges from 1 to 7 days, depending on the complexity of the project. A basic installation with gas line connections and venting may take 1-3 days, whereas a more involved project that includes framing and masonry work can take 3-7 days.

Well-seasoned hardwoods like oak, maple, hickory, and ash are the cleanest woods to burn in a fireplace. When properly dried, these woods have low moisture content, allowing them to burn hotter and produce less smoke, which minimizes creosote buildup. Ensure the wood is seasoned for at least six months for optimal burning.

When your fireplace is not in use for longer periods of time, such as over the summer, you can keep smells at bay by spraying either a commercial fireplace deodorizing product or a blend of one part distilled white vinegar to one part water around the walls of the fireplace. 

Or, you can place a container of charcoal inside the fireplace to absorb odors. Just be sure to remove it before it’s time to start using the fireplace again.

In some cases, you can use a fireplace once the insert has been removed. However, before burning a fire, you must have a professional inspect it and the chimney to make sure they're functioning properly and no damage has occurred from removing the insert. That’s because using a fireplace without an insert could create fire hazards due to issues with airflow and heat dispersion, depending on the fireplace design and material. A professional can advise on whether you should make certain repairs or modifications before using your fireplace as an open hearth.
