"I was going to have my wood burning fireplace converted to gas so they did a chimney inspection and discoverd extensive damage from birds nesting in chimney. They provided an immediate clean up estimate and I hired them to do that work to protect against further damage . They recommended that a gas fireplace was not a safe option so we talked through options for an electric insert. I decided to wait on that but was very impressed with customer service and quality of work."

"The workers and office staff were easy to talk to, well informed, courteous , and efficient. They performed a thorough inspection. Recommended and installed a stainless liner and cap for the furnace flue and a new damper on the fireplace flue. Their price was better than previous quotes and even set up a partial payment plan. I am very pleased with the work they did."

My name is Kara and my husband Jason helps me run our own small home cleaning business for the past 3 years. We cover a pretty wide range of area from Bloomington to Princeton. We are located in Chillicothe IL. We do general deep cleans to move in and out cleans. Also some general side work like windows, carpet cleaning, deck painting, and general lawn care as well. You ask we will let you know if we can do it. Cleaning as a team of 2 just gets your home cleaned faster and more efficient. It cuts the time in half as most people prefer this. We have many references and would enjoy seeing some new faces. Our clients truly become like family. I originally started cleaning for merry maids & cottage care in my early 20’s once I had my first child I started back into it so she could come with me & not have to go to daycare. I have over 15 years in this industry and can usually make things look brand new again! Instant gratification feels good I look forward to making your home sparkle again

"They were prompt and courteous. They asked a few questions and answered all of our questions. We were new to fireplaces. We are both elderly...these guys took the time to explain the whole process associated with fireplaces. We had called them out to check only one of our fireplaces. I was so impressed with them that I ask them to check out our other. Their fees for checking the second fireplace was reasonable. So reasonable in fact that I tipped them substantially."

"I have had Kitchen and Bath Specialties do several things to my house including a skylight an oval window above my bed and a specialty window in a bathroom, so I hired them again to do a new backsplash around my kitchen and lighting. As usual the work was done promptly and professionally. The backsplash tile is beautiful and was flawlessly installed. Joe also installed multi colored under cabinet lighting which gives it a nice accent. He always comes up with great ideas on how to accomplish and perfect the task. I highly recommend him and his team."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

The damper, located just above the firebox, can open or close the chimney flue. The damper should remain closed unless there’s a fire burning in the fireplace. Closing the damper prevents energy loss through the chimney and cold air from seeping into the home during the winter. Opening the damper helps maintain airflow when there is a fire and prevents smoke and gases from venting into the house.

Homeowners can conduct basic visual inspections and cleaning, but professionals provide thorough checks that identify hidden issues safely.

Wood is classified as either hardwood or softwood. For firewood, hardwoods are generally the best choice as they tend to burn longer, hotter, and produce less smoke than softwoods. Recommended hardwoods include oak, hickory, maple, cherry, ash, beech, birch, elm, and walnut. Oak is a particularly good option as it's widely available, slow-burning, and doesn't produce much smoke or sparks. Some woods, like oak, hickory, and cherry, also emit a pleasant scent. It is best to avoid softwoods such as eucalyptus, poplar, and willow, as they create a lot of smoke and have a high moisture content that makes them difficult to light and burn efficiently.

Deciding when to replace your fireplace depends on its condition and your preferences. Replacements may be necessary if your fireplace shows extensive damage, safety issues, or inefficiency. Signs include deteriorating masonry, cracked firebox panels, or a faulty chimney. Aesthetic reasons, such as outdated design, can also drive replacement. Wanting something more sustainable and energy-efficient is another good reason to replace your old fireplace.

Cleaning your own chimney can be risky, especially if it hasn't been done in a long time and you lack the proper tools, knowledge, and safety equipment. The process involves getting onto the roof and handling soot, which poses safety issues. Remember, inhaling chimney soot is a significant health risk. Wearing the proper respiratory equipment is required.
