"I worked with Charles and honestly his attitude and assurance that I?d be working with him sold me on they?re company Well after I signed I never seen Charles again no finish walk through with the client just job is done where?s the money. 26,767.50 for new furnace and a/c I expect an attic access to be finished properly and with quality materials. As you can see they can?t get a mitre corner completed properly. And then use construction grade plywood material NOT good finished grade. So I?ll do it myself the right way. I wonder if Mr. Pelle?s home is finished in junk material like this. If they can?t do this properly who knows what else is done poorly. Another thing the workman asked where I?d like the thermostat I pointed at a location. Well he just starts drilling away and hit a metal vent. Being in design build and construction I know to scan the wall with a stud finder that shows where pipe elec, etc are. Now there?s a vent in a wall with a hole. Zero follow up!!!?"

Wood Stove Inspection questions, answered by experts

Some people don’t like the look of gas fireplaces since they don’t offer the classic charm or appeal of a wood-burning fire. Plus, gas fireplace installation is more expensive than other types of fireplace installations due to the added complexity of working with gas lines. There’s also a chance that gas could get into your home, which is a major health and safety risk.

Gas fireplaces provide energy-efficient heating, low maintenance, and the convenience of instant ignition with remote control options.

The answer can vary widely based on a home's age and design. As with any type of remodeling project, assume that every structure is load-bearing until confirming otherwise with a structural engineer. Almost all modern homes have chimneys that are fully independent from the rest of the home's framing. As a result, they don't bear any load beyond their own weight. However, many historic homes built prior to the 1900s contain load-bearing chimneys that tie into the surrounding roof and floor joists. If possible, use a home's blueprints or look for chimney connections that indicate load-bearing qualities to get your answer.

Yes, you should seal an unused chimney. Even if it’s not in use, the structure is still susceptible to moisture damage, which can lead to problems like cracks, spalling, efflorescence, and damaged mortar joints. But you should also cap the chimney to prevent blockages while still allowing for air ventilation (which also prevents moisture damage). Also, continue to get an annual chimney inspection to prevent other issues with the structure.

Your chimney comes with dampers, which are similar to air vents. Dampers are metal plates that allow hot air and smoke to flow from the fireplace up your chimney and out of your home. When you close the damper, it prevents cool air from getting into your home. This is why you’ll want to check to make sure your damper is open before starting your fireplace and you want to ensure it’s closed after the fire goes out. You can open and close them via an external knob, pull chain, or lever.
