"We had major problem with our chimney and with the cold weather we wanted to get our wood stove back on line. I was very nervous about "Chimney" companies because I had heard so many horror stories, but this company was awesome! Sarah was great, professional, listened to what I had to say and quickly addressed my issue, I had someone here within 6 hours! Nate and Antonio were more than professional. Got the job done right the first time. I will actually be using this company for additional work to be performed. Price was reasonable, no complaints here 5 Star rating! Awesome job guys!"

"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!"

"Jacob removed two old, non-functioning coal burning chimneys from my house. Jacob was professional, expedient and courteous. Jacob got the work done quickly and never complained even though I think the project was a bit more involved than he had originally anticipated. It was a LOT of hard work and a million trips up and down my old stairs. I will definitely be using Guardian Chimney for all of my upcoming masonry work."

"John did an absolutely outstanding job on the tile work for our fireplace. From start to finish, he was professional, courteous, and incredibly easy to work with. His attention to detail and craftsmanship truly show in the final result—the fireplace looks beautiful and exceeded our expectations. John communicated clearly, respected our space, and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. We couldn’t be happier with his work and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for high-quality tile work done right. We will be using him for our bathroom next!"

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

The cost to clean and inspect an oil-fired chimney generally ranges from $150 to $500. The price is influenced by factors such as the chimney's height, the level of soot buildup, local labor costs, and whether any additional repairs or liner replacements are required.

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.

Yes, it can be worth installing a gas fireplace, depending on your home heating needs. The cost to install a gas fireplace can be much lower than the cost to install a comparable wood-burning fireplace. The convenience of starting a fire with the flip of a switch and turning it off just as quickly makes a gas fireplace a big time saver over starting and maintaining a wood-fueled fire. A gas fireplace also does not require ash cleanup or frequent chimney cleaning to remove creosote and other buildup that can lead to chimney fires. Gas fireplaces burn and heat much more cleanly than wood fireplaces.

Knowing who to hire to install your fireplace is important when it comes to having a safe place to burn a fire in your home. The best person to contact for installing fireplaces is a mason or general contractor who has a National Fireplace Institute (NFI) specialist certification. If you’re installing wood paneling, then it’s a good idea to also find a pro who is Wood Energy Technology Transfer (WETT)-certified. 

Both of these certifications show that your pro is well-equipped to install fireplaces and inspect your home for the utmost safety.

To ensure the safety and longevity of your pre-fabricated fireplace, perform regular maintenance. This includes regular cleaning, checking the unit for cracks, and ensuring the venting and ventilation systems are clear and functioning properly. Additionally, scheduling professional inspections helps ensure safe operation.
