"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."

"The tuck pointing looks beautiful.  I'm so glad I went with Humes Masonry.   I've had tuck pointers do work in the past that left gouges in the bricks and I wasn't sure how much the job really strengthened  the brick work.   I have confidence this work done by Humes Masonry was worth my money and will last.

"Last fall I bought a house with a gas fireplace, and during the inspection it was noted the damper was blocked. The inspector thought that there was probably debris in the chimney causing the blockage. So I hired Absolute Clean to unblock and clean the chimney. They found that the blockage was caused not by debris but by a piece of mortar protruding from the masonry. In fact the chimney had probably never been used even though the house was 47 years old. So it turned out that there wasn't really a whole lot of chimney sweeping to do as far as build-up, but there was a little debris which they cleaned out, and they checked it to make sure that it was safe to use. They showed me how to turn it on safely and gave me some tips on positioning the logs, and where to buy gas logs if I wanted a different look. Very nice fellows.

"I had my chimney tuckpointed and settlement cracks ground and repaired in the exterior bricks of my home.  John, the owner, personally met with with me and we reviewed the scope of work together.  I also requested quotes from two other contractors.  John's quote was the lowest in cost but actually involved the most work.  Regarding the actual work, he did exactly what he said he was going to do.  The only additional amount charged was for a couple cans of wasp spray because they were nesting in the area of his work.  This was twelve dollars and he provided the receipt.  One of the other contractors said he would not even perform the work unless I had the wasps professionally exterminated - John took care of this himself.  This no nonsense approach to the work, fairness and attention to detail reminds me of the old school work ethic that was common in the building trades years ago.  Very satisfied and highly recommend."

"I've had three tuckpointing jobs done in the course of 2 years and wish that I'd found Grant much earlier. He rebuilt the face of a fireplace and repaired some spawling. Really wonderful. First time in a long time I've been please with work done. Price was also fantastic. Great value. Only thing communication isn't always that great, but these guys do get busy. The main thing is when he did start, he finished in good time and did an excellent job."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

Pellet stoves do require electricity to power their automated features, such as the pellet feeder, fans, and digital controls. However, their electricity consumption is relatively low compared to other household appliances. During a power outage, pellet stoves equipped with battery backup systems or manual ignition options can still operate, though fans and automatic feed mechanisms may not function. Have a backup heating plan in place for these situations, especially if you live in a region prone to severe weather events.

While you have some flexibility in the types of wood you can use in your outdoor furnace, it's important to make wise choices for optimal performance and efficiency. Hardwoods, such as oak, maple, and cherry, are generally recommended for their higher energy content and cleaner burn. These hardwoods produce more heat per volume and tend to produce fewer creosote deposits, which can accumulate and cause a chimney fire, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

A chimney cap typically lasts between three and 25 years. This wide range is due to several variables, including the material it's made from, the local climate, and how frequently you use your fireplace. Living in an area with severe weather can shorten its lifespan. Regular inspections, maintenance, and minor repairs as needed can help your chimney cap last as long as possible.

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.

The burn time of pellets in a pellet stove depends on factors such as stove size, heat setting, and pellet quality. A full hopper of pellets can last anywhere from 12 to 48 hours. Lower heat settings will extend burn times, while higher settings will reduce them. It's important to choose high-quality pellets because they burn more efficiently and produce less ash, maximizing the stove's burn time and overall performance. Regularly monitoring the pellet level ensures consistent heat output and optimal efficiency from your pellet stove.
