"Every time Angela or I look out the back door we're awestruck. We knew basically what we wanted but didn't have any real vision. We just stayed out of the way and magic happened - three absolutely beautiful patios connected with stairs we could never have imagined surrounded by native stone. Artisanship, craftsmanship, professionalism. Extraordinary. Magic."

"I cannot recommend Veltkamp Masonry highly enough. Isaac and his team did exceptional work on both my home’s structure and interior. We had a serious issue with our porch foundation that was putting stress on the entire roof. Isaac expertly jacked up and repaired the foundation with precision and care, resolving what could have been a major long-term problem. He also completely retiled our shower and corrected subpar workmanship left by the original builder. The difference is night and day—the attention to detail and quality of finish exceeded expectations. Isaac is knowledgeable, honest, and takes real pride in his work. It’s rare to find someone who can handle both structural repairs and detailed finish work at such a high level. If you want the job done right the first time, Veltkamp Masonry is it."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

Yes, a pellet stove can heat an entire house—as long as you choose one that’s large enough for that purpose. For context, pellet stoves generate between 8,000 and 90,000 British Thermal Units (BTUs), and you’ll need 30 to 60 BTUs per square foot, depending on your climate zone. If you’re unsure which size pellet stove to buy, reach out to a local pellet or wood stove repair company.

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.

Depending on stove type and condition, costs range from $150 to $300.

Pellet stoves are safer than wood stoves in many ways. They don’t produce as many creosote deposits as wood stoves do, they create less smoke, and the flames are contained, decreasing the risk of any sparks or embers creating a house fire. Pellet stoves also burn more cleanly and efficiently than wood stoves do.

How you stop your fireplace from smoking depends on the cause. Sometimes it’s as simple as opening the damper. Other times, you need to battle air pressure. The best course of action is to ensure proper ventilation, whether that means opening a door or a window; avoid building a large fire, which produces more smoke; and use seasoned hardwoods, which produce less smoke than other types of wood. If the issue persists, call a pro ASAP.
