"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!"

"Five star work from Shamrock C&C Inc.!! Super technician!! great price under $2700 and I had gotten a previous quote from another company for almost $12,000. The technician at Shamrock explained to me a lot of that work was unnecessary and so I went with confidence with Shamrock and had them do the job that day, as the technician said that there was an immediate safety concern."

"I called Mr. Cowan on the recommendation of Angie's List.  I never met Mr. Cowan just spoked to him on the telephone.  He came out the next day checked the bricks on the chimney and fireplace and call me to tell me the problems.  I was not at home but I trusted him to do a good job.  He gave me a price and I gave him the go ahead.  He trusted me to pay him and I trusted him to do a good job.  He did a great job.  The next day I overnighted him a check for the amount.  I would recommend him to anyone who need this kind of work.  He is not only great at what he does but he is honest.  I praise God for people like him.

"I can not say enough good things about Kris, our fireplace guru. I needed chimney repairs, for a change. I called several companies. Kris by far had the best ideas, the best price, the best guaranteed solutions. He did the job in 1 day. Fireplace works better than it ever did. These guys are great."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

There are six main choices of fireplace inserts: wood-burning, gas, propane, pellet, electric, and coal. Coal fireplace inserts aren’t as popular as they once were because burning coal emits a lot of carbon monoxide. Any fireplace insert will require proper supervision, and it’s a good idea to install a carbon monoxide detector in the room for added safety.

Gas fireplace repair costs an average of $600, but prices can vary widely depending on the issue, parts needed, and service provider. Simple repairs like cleaning or pilot light adjustments may cost between $75 and $200, while more significant repairs involving component replacement can cost $1,000 or more. The overall cost typically falls within the $100 to $2,500 range.

Typical price ranges for repairing different components of a gas fireplace are:

  • Thermocouple: $75 to $350

  • Thermopile: $75 to $350

  • Gas valve: $150 to $300

  • Pilot light: $100 to $350

  • Igniter: $100 to $150

  • Mantel: $500 to $1,200

  • Hearth: $150 to $800

Gas fireplace inserts are considered the most efficient because they convert more of the fuel source—gas—into heat. They offer excellent heat output per the amount of fuel they use. While electric fireplace inserts are praised for their efficiency, keep in mind that they don’t offer as strong a heat output but may still be a great choice if you want an efficient option.

When done correctly by a professional, chimney repointing can last for several decades—often 30 years or more. This maintenance is crucial for keeping the chimney structure sound, improving its waterproofing, and preventing more significant and costly repairs, such as a partial or complete rebuild. It is recommended to schedule an annual inspection to catch any potential issues early. If you notice the chimney's brickwork looks worn out or crumbly, you should hire a professional to inspect it.

Ideally, your chimney cap should be at least 8 inches above the top of the flue, though it's better if it's even higher. You want it to sit that high because it won't affect the chimney's draft, which pulls the smoke up and out of your chimney and away from your home.
