They were punctual, respectful of my home, and cleaned up thoroughly when the job was finished. I highly recommend Defender Chimney and Fireplace to anyone looking for quality work and exceptional customer service. Thank you for making my fireplace look beautiful again!"

"Professional, trustworthy, friendly, knowledgeable, efficient. Fernando and Jesus gave us a call 30 minutes before arriving. Examined our fireplace and explained what they discovered and gave us several solution options . They swept the chimney, cleaned the fire box, and examined the chimney top. They caulked around the cap. Great service ! 5 stars!!"

"Robert returned my original call the same day within an hour and came out to assess the problem later that very same day.  He took a walk around the entire house and pointed out several possible problems and suggested several ways to go about resolving the problems on my own and even suggested materials that could be used to do so.  He was very helpful in answering all of my questions and even pointed out a problem that I didn't even know existed on my fireplace chimney.  He set up a time to commence the work on repairing the crack in the masonry wall and arrived on time to start the work.  I was kept well informed of his progress on the job and he made sure that I was satisfied with the work that he had done before leaving and he made sure that everything was cleaned up.  I felt that his price was very reasonable and I also made arrangements for him to come back and repair the two cracks that I have in the foundation of the house.  I would highly recommend him to anyone needing any type of masonry work performed.  It is refreshing to find someone who is so conscientious and hard working.

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

No, because they burn propane or natural gas, gas fireplaces do not generate ash like wood-burning fireplaces. However, gas fireplaces require maintenance, such as cleaning the glass doors, checking for debris in the burner or vents, and ensuring the logs or glass stones are in place. This maintenance ensures that the fireplace continues to operate efficiently and safely.

The length of time it takes to repoint your chimney depends on its design and the extent of damage, but generally, the process takes a couple of days. You can expect just one to two days for a small job or up to four days for a larger chimney or more complex project.

In most homes, your chimney and HVAC are separate from each other. However, you can use your chimney to save on heating costs in the winter. Turn off your HVAC system and start a cozy fire, then watch the electric bills drop during the coldest months. Make sure your flue is closed when not in use so that you don’t end up pumping heat or cool air from your system outside.

One disadvantage of a wood furnace is that you need a constant supply of wood to run it. Even if you have a good amount of wood on your property (or have another way to get affordable wood), you’ll still need to chop it, store it, and re-fuel your furnace with it to keep your house heated. 

A chimney cleaning brick or log can help loosen creosote between professional chimney cleaning appointments. Although they can help keep your chimney cleaner, they are not a substitute for chimney sweeping and are not meant to be used regularly.
