"Yes he showed up half an hour early, and was very knowledgeable. And very careful not to get soot all over the place while he was cleaning our fireplace. He repaired the box in the fireplace quickly and efficiently. We also took him to the neighbors and he cleaned their fireplace. Very happy with them I would recommend him again."

"I asked in advance, if the brick inside and outside the fireplace could be cleaned, the man on the phone said ;Yes that they had stuff that would take anything off The workers were early (a good thing), very polite, but had nothing that even put a dent in the stains on the fireplace. It looks just as bad as it did before I hired them. I was extremely disappointed. They merely looked down the chimney from the roof for all I could tell and were done and out in 45 minutes. Misled in hiring."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

A quality pellet stove that receives proper maintenance can last between 15 and 20 years, while most will last at least 10 years. The exact lifespan depends on factors like frequency of use and how well the stove is cared for. Proper maintenance—such as periodically cleaning the vents, vacuuming the ash pan, and refreshing the pellets as needed—can significantly extend its life, making it a worthwhile long-term investment.

For most brick cleaning jobs, including fireplace bricks, use a masonry sponge and a gentle cleaner. A simple solution of equal parts water and vinegar, or a few drops of dish soap in a bowl of water, can effectively remove grime. For tougher stains, you can use a dedicated masonry or fireplace cleaner. It is crucial to wet the bricks thoroughly with water before applying any cleaning solution to prevent the brick from absorbing it, and to rinse the surface completely afterward. Harsher cleaners containing bleach or ammonia should only be used as a last resort, and they should never be mixed together.

There are several maintenance tips you should take to ensure your pellet stove's safety and proper maintenance. You should vacuum the ash pan every week to prevent overflowing and clean the stove and surrounding vents every three to four months. It’s also important to get a professional inspection every year and install a carbon monoxide detector close to your stove. Be sure to dispose of hot ashes in a closed metal container; store it outside, away from the house. Only use the pellets recommended by your stove's manufacturer, and follow any cleaning and maintenance instructions.

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.

Most repairs take 2-6 hours, but extensive fixes or part replacements may require additional time.
