Q: Which wood is best for firewood?

• <div><p>Wood is classified as either hardwood or softwood. While both are good options for firewood, hardwoods like oak, hickory, beech, cherry, elm, and maple tend to be the best quality. These woods burn longer and hotter than softwoods and often produce less smoke. As an added bonus, woods like oak, hickory, and cherry emit a sought-after scent that is sure to make your home extra cozy. </p></div>

Q: Does an outdoor fireplace need a chimney liner?

• <div><p>A chimney liner isn&rsquo;t required for an outdoor fireplace; you don&rsquo;t technically need one if the masonry chimney uses the proper dimensions and is built to code. However, a chimney liner does serve as a protective coating for the flue. Adding a liner could improve performance, safety, and durability. In short, while not necessary, it wouldn&rsquo;t hurt. </p></div>

Q: Can you put a liner in an old chimney?

• <div><p>Yes, you can install a liner in an old chimney that is in good working condition. In fact, it's often necessary for safety and efficiency. Older chimneys may lack liners or have deteriorated ones, leading to heat damage, gas leaks, or reduced performance. Installing a stainless steel, clay tile, or cast-in-place liner improves safety, protects the chimney&rsquo;s structure, and boosts energy efficiency. This upgrade can extend the life span of an old chimney while meeting modern safety standards.</p></div>

Q: What holds a chimney liner in place?

• <div><p>A chimney liner is held in place by a top plate and attached top clamp, both of which should be included in most chimney liner kits. The top plate seals to the top of the chimney flue and attaches directly to the liner. This not only holds the liner in place but supports its weight in the chimney.</p></div>

Q: Can you use a fireplace with a broken damper?

• <div><p>You can use a fireplace with a broken damper, but only if the damper is in the open position. If not, your fireplace will not properly vent smoke outdoors. Never operate your fireplace if the damper is sealed shut and you cannot open it, as deadly smoke will quickly fill your home. If your fireplace damper is broken, have it repaired or replaced as soon as possible.</p></div>

Technician quickly pointed out the trick which was not in our manual to get the pilot light working. He did not charge for the service call.

I was debating between two different landscape companies, and chose Outdoor Xscapes because they were a one stop shop! They had everything organized. Our pool is an oasis. Joel was my sales person and he was always checking on me and was at my job often. I highly recommend them!

"I put down a deposit for my project around June 2024, with the agreement that work would begin in January 2025. The deposit was supposed to secure my materials. In December 2024, I asked if they could start earlier and complete the project by Christmas. They agreed but couldn't begin until December 26th—not a big issue since the original start date was January. However, the real frustration began here. One of the pavers I selected was on backorder, and I had to order more than originally needed just to meet their supplier’s minimum requirement. This meant paying extra and waiting over four weeks to keep my design. [ My deposit DID NOT SECURE MY MATERIALS ] Despite my frustration, I agreed. Then, on February 19th, I received a message saying they would resume work in two days. I waited—no one showed up. I followed up on February 22nd and was told they would come on the 22nd or 23rd. Again, no show. I rearranged my schedule multiple times to accommodate these delays. Finally, on February 24th, they showed up and continued the work. Now, as of March 5, 2025, the installation is complete, but there are still unresolved issues—irrigation not working, scratches on the gate and wall, leftover project trash and other cosmetic problems. I have to reach out daily to ask if someone is coming to fix these, only to be met with delays and rescheduling. If you’re looking for a company that delivers decent work but terrible communication and scheduling, this is it. Their inability to set clear timelines or communicate properly has been beyond frustrating."
