"Jimmyâ s work was excellent. He gave us options to repair the chimney and worked with us each step of the way. He was professional and friendly. You could tell he took pride in his craft and the price was fair. I look forward to working with him again to refurbish an outdoor fireplace."

"Al was fantastic! He clearly explained that my fireplace was shutting off as a safety feature due to low oxygen levels. He also reassembled the logs in the firebox and showed me the proper way to start and stop the fireplace. Highly recommend his service!"

"Received quote same day after their initial inspection of our chimney and received prompt responses to all emails. They were able to come out the same week and arrived right on time on the day of service. The crew was very courteous and explained what they were going to do. Top notch service and a very reasonable price to have new crown installed with stainless steel chimney cap and cleaning. They even removed a broken sliding screen in my fireplace! The entire job was completed in a couple of hours. Read the reviews - they are accurate based on my experience. I will definitely use this company again for future cleanings and repairs."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

There are a few things you can keep an eye out for that indicate you may need to call in a gas fireplace repair tech:

  • Your fireplace pilot light won’t stay on.

  • You notice the smell of rotten eggs.

  • You hear hissing coming from the gas fireplace.

  • You notice a soot build-up.

  • The fire goes out unexpectedly.

If you notice a rotten egg smell or hear hissing, you could have a gas leak, which is extremely dangerous. Call the fire department and your gas company first to shut off the gas and air out your home before calling for a repair.

Sap, despite its stickiness, is primarily made of water and is responsible for wood being “green” when it’s first cut. Green wood doesn’t burn very easily and will snap and crackle a lot, not ideal for a fire pit or fireplace. That’s why it’s best to let fresh, sap-filled wood season or dry out for at least a season before you start burning.

Most homeowners put a layer of compact sand or gravel at the bottom of their firepit, but you can also choose more decorative options like fire-resistant paving stones, bricks, or fire pit glass. Dirt by itself can even work, but other materials do a better job of spreading the heat around.

When it comes to noise levels, outdoor wood furnaces typically fall within a manageable range that's comparable to other standard heating systems. The noise generated by an outdoor wood furnace is primarily attributed to the operation of the fan and blower components responsible for circulating heated air throughout your home.

These fans and blowers are designed to minimize sound while effectively distributing warmth. While you might notice a subtle hum or airflow noise when they're in operation, it's generally not intrusive or disruptive to your daily activities.

You should never block both the top and bottom of your chimney. Proper airflow is essential because the temperature inside the chimney will still fluctuate as your house warms and cools. Moisture can build up without ventilation, leading to dampness in your walls over time. Blocking the top prevents debris and animals from entering, but the chimney still needs air circulation to avoid condensation issues. Allowing the chimney to breathe maintains the health of your home and prevents long-term damage.
