"John at Cornerstone Masonry did an outstanding job of replacing missing bricks and tuck pointing a very large area on my Polk Blvd all brick home. The work was top notch and makes this century old two story look like new. The quality of the work was excellent with attention to the smallest details. Punctuality and communication were excellent. The job was done on time and for the quoted amount. I am very satisfied with the finished product and I have hired them for another project."

"Todd came on the day & time scheduled and completed the work in our attic.  Our problem was that we had condensation forming in the attic and draining through the ceiling fans into the bathrooms.  This did not happen all the time so we are not sure the problem has been corrected but so far so good!"

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

In older Des Moines homes, original masonry chimneys lack the proper flue liners required for modern gas log service. Inspect your chimney for cracked mortar caused by harsh freeze-thaw cycles. Finished basements also present challenges, as below-grade fireplaces require complex gas line routing. Long distances from the gas meter to the fireplace demand pressure testing to ensure your system meets strict IA safety codes.

Helpful?

After completing gas log service, you must schedule a final inspection with the city to close out your mechanical permit. Notify your local utility provider to verify meter capacity and service line pressure. Verify that carbon monoxide detectors sit within 15 feet of every sleeping area to meet IA safety regulations. Schedule a follow-up flue inspection after the first winter to check for masonry shifts.

Helpful?

For basic gas log service maintenance, safely dust the logs with a soft brush while the system remains completely cool. You can also visually confirm the damper clamp sits securely in place. If you detect a natural gas odor, evacuate your Des Moines home immediately and call your utility provider's emergency line. Leave complex repairs, persistent pilot light outages, and soot buildup to a certified professional.

Helpful?

Start your gas log service preparations by scheduling a full system inspection to ensure the installation meets current safety codes. Review the property’s permit history through the city office to confirm all previous work passed inspection. Locate the fireplace gas shutoff valve immediately. Finally, hire a certified specialist to assess the chimney for structural damage caused by the intense freeze-thaw cycles common in Des Moines.

Helpful?

Proper gas log service requires an annual professional inspection every fall before the IA heating season begins. A local professional will test safety components, verify gas valve operation, and check venting integrity. Because humid summers cause component corrosion and harsh winters crack chimney mortar, yearly maintenance prevents dangerous carbon monoxide leaks. Always hire a certified specialist to inspect the flue and test oxygen depletion sensors.
