Customers say: Super punctual

"They are very friendly and knowledgeable. The technician that came out took the time to explain everything to me to help me understand how the chimney and fireplace work and why he recommended the repairs he did. And ever since the work was done, our fireplace has been burning cleaner and actually feels safe for my home and my family. Thank you all so much!!"

"The sweep did a great job.  He cleaned a fireplace that opens on two sides.  He was very careful about taping off the side of the fireplace that would not be accessed to clean the flue.  Tarps were laid to prevent spreading of soot, etc.  The job took less than an hour.  He was also very good about recommending how to clean our gas logs to prevent the buildup of carbon dioxide over time.

"I hadn't used my condo's fireplace in the 7 years I owned my condo. I am going to be renting it out so wanted to make sure everything was ok. The technician came over on time (even earlier) and inspected the chimney. It turned out that no cleaning was needed. I was only charged for the inspection and even used the Angie's List coupon. He gave me some advice on screens to use in front of the fireplace and referred me to a vendor."

"I had a pleasure of contracting Elegant Fireplace Mantel to remove my outdated fireplace mantel and install a new precast one.
Talking to Robert was a pleasure as well, he was very helpful coordinating everything and helping out with payments.
On the other hand, Mark was really knowledgeable about pretty much everything involving mantels and fireplaces and helped me select a cheap, precast mantle which would fit my living room perfectly.
Their showroom is very well organized and pretty big with a really wide selection, unlike most fireplace mantel companies I have visited before Elegant. The installation was smooth and almost noiseless. They took all of the measurements and after installing the mantel cleaned the area as well as totally cover up the area on the wall around it.
Very happy with the service. Thanks!

"From start to finish, our experience with them was outstanding. We tasked them with a complete outdoor makeover, including pavers, a pool, and a firepit. They really listened to our ideas, provided sound advice, and transformed our backyard into an amazing space. The team was professional, creative, and worked with great precision. Their commitment to customer satisfaction was clear in their consistent communication and the stunning result."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

Some homes with wood-burning fireplaces don't have ash pits due to design choices, construction practices, or the age of the house. Many older abodes don't have them because ash pits weren't a standard feature when they were built. Additionally, in smaller homes or homes with less frequent fireplace use, builders might have opted to forgo an ash pit to reduce costs or simplify maintenance.

There are several ways to determine if your chimney or fireplace damper is open or closed. A simple method is to check for airflow by placing your hand near the fireplace opening; if you feel a draft or hear wind whistling, the damper is open. An open damper might also make the room feel cooler, similar to the outdoor temperature, or cause your HVAC system to work harder than usual. For a more definitive test, you can try a visual inspection, although it may be difficult to see. Alternatively, you can light a small piece of paper and observe the smoke; if it is drawn up the chimney, the damper is open. Always use the damper handle to adjust its position.

Yes, capped chimneys should still be vented. Failing to vent a chimney will result in condensation buildup inside the chimney, which commonly results in mold growth. If mold begins to grow in a chimney, it frequently goes undetected and spreads quickly through the home. Mold and moisture can damage the structural integrity of your home, and exposure to mold can cause discomfort and illness in residents.

Yes, an outdoor fireplace should use fire bricks. Fire bricks are specially designed to withstand high levels of heat and thus won’t crack as easily as regular bricks when exposed to the intense heat inside a fireplace.

Pellet stoves do require electricity to power their automated features, such as the pellet feeder, fans, and digital controls. However, their electricity consumption is relatively low compared to other household appliances. During a power outage, pellet stoves equipped with battery backup systems or manual ignition options can still operate, though fans and automatic feed mechanisms may not function. Have a backup heating plan in place for these situations, especially if you live in a region prone to severe weather events.
