VETERAN OWNED I take great pride in my experience, expertise, quality, and customer service that I provide to meet the consumer’s needs. It is my mission to provide excellent workmanship and complete customer satisfaction from start to completion of a project. In order to understand the needs and expectations of our customers, I take great care to work and communicate with every customer in a professional manner. My reputation is based on service, safety, and quality, regardless of how large or small the job.

"Firstly, WE never agreed on a price because it was handled through a 3rd party. Secondly, I received my invoice via email and that's how I paid it, by email using my card. By doing this, he made me feel horrible because it would take him 3 weeks to receive his money. By the way, he never said anything about meeting so that I could write him a check. Lastly, after paying the flat $700 invoice, I requested an itemized invoice for tax purposes. He responded by saying I was not going to get one because he wasn't going to measure each inch of wire. I explained that I didn't need that. All I wanted was the components used and labor. We ended by me not getting an invoice for taxes because he said I didn't need one for taxes (now he's account too) but my CPA requested one for a write off. I could see what kind of person he was so I just wrote back 2 words....forget it. There's something I do find curious. Who gets charged $700 exactly? I could have seen $625.19, you get what I mean. I'll never recommend his services to anyone I know for acting immature and whining about my necessary requests."

Wood Stove Inspection questions, answered by experts

Compared to certain types of firewood like pine or spruce—which burn off sticky resin contained within the wood that creates lots of smoke—elm isn’t the worst option for burning in a fireplace.

Because elm wood is dense, it burns at a moderate pace and does a pretty good job of keeping your home warm. Hardwood like maple or oak may perform slightly better, but elm isn’t a bad choice overall.

Yes, gas fireplaces benefit from chimney caps just like wood-burning fireplaces. While gas fireplaces produce fewer byproducts, a chimney cap still helps prevent rain, debris, and pesky critters from entering the chimney, which can cause blockages or damage. It also prevents downdrafts that could push harmful gases like carbon monoxide back into your home. Even with the cleaner operation of gas fireplaces, a chimney cap adds a layer of protection and helps maintain proper ventilation.

Yes, you need to leave your chimney damper open when burning a creosote log so that smoke and other debris doesn’t waft into your house as it’s burning. You’ll need to make sure your damper is fully open, even when the log continues to smoke, until it’s completely out and cold.

The best place to install a wood stove is near an outside wall. This makes it easier to route a chimney through the roof than if it were located in the dead center of your house. No combustible materials should be near the wood-burning stove, and depending on the building code, 20 inches to 36 inches of space should be allowed between the side wall and the stove.

A sneaky but important element to how long your new fireplace runs is choosing the right burner size. Avoid choosing a bioethanol fireplace with a small burner (less than two gallons) and opt for one that holds between two to four gallons for a longer burn time or else you’ll be stuck frequently refilling your fireplace.
