"Franco’s Fireplaces was a wonderful find. I needed my paver patio repaired where it had sunken-in and had several thick roots growing through the pavers. I was having a difficult time finding a contractor. I finally reached out to Angi and got a prompt response from Franco’s Fireplaces Inc. Not only did he offer a reasonable quote, Franco was able to begin immediately. In less than two days, his team transformed my patio. I am truly impressed with their workmanship. Based on my experience, I can understand why they had so many great reviews for their fireplace work and now I can recommend Franco’s Fireplaces for paver/ flatwork, too. This was my second experience using a contractor through Angi, and both experiences have been awesome."

Fireplaces FAQs, answered by experts

Depending on the model of your fireplace, you can leave your pilot light on year-round. This does use a small amount of fuel, so you’ll save on your energy bill by turning off the pilot light seasonally. Keep in mind that some gas fireplace models don’t have a standing pilot light.

Yes. It’s okay to leave a pellet stove on overnight, and these stoves can provide 24 to 48 hours of warmth from one ignition. However, you should practice proper pellet stove maintenance, like cleaning the burn pot before each use, deep cleaning the unit at least once per year, and running the fan when the stove is lit.

If you have a gas fireplace with an electric ignition and you’re experiencing a power outage, you will need to light your fireplace’s pilot manually before you can start a fire. The instructions should be in the manufacturer’s manual.

If there’s a draft within your fireplace, it can lead to a weakening of its flame. And when the fire burns the wood, it won’t burn effectively, resulting in a build up of soot and smoke. If you notice this happening, you’ll want to inspect the glass to see where the draft is getting in. You can also hire a fireplace repair pro to do the work for you.

Fireplace inserts are essentially wood, gas, or electric stoves designed to fit into an existing masonry fireplace. People opt to install inserts because traditional fireplaces can lose a lot of heat, require more maintenance, and may impact indoor air quality. A fireplace insert installer near you can help you decide which brand and size fit your home.
