"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."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

Yes, it’s possible to install a wood-burning stove through the wall. The process is similar to venting the stove through the ceiling, but you’ll need to be careful of electrical wiring, plumbing, studs, and other potential obstructions in your walls. If you’re not comfortable with this type of work, call a professional who installs wood-burning stoves.

The time required for a chimney inspection depends on the inspection level. A Level 1 inspection typically takes between 45 minutes and two hours, with an average of about an hour and a half. A Level 2 inspection usually takes less than two hours. A more in-depth Level 3 inspection can take up to five hours, or even multiple days if it requires removing materials. The total duration also depends on the chimney's size, condition, and how long it has been since its last inspection; chimneys with severe damage will require a longer inspection.

Not every type of flooring is well suited to a wood stove. However, ceramic or stone tiles are good choices since they are durable, heat-resistant, and easy to clean. Softer flooring options, like carpet, could be damaged by the heat produced by a wood stove—or even create a fire hazard.

Your fireplace flue is open when the chimney is unsealed and open to the outside air and sky. That’s why one of the best ways to figure out if your flue is open is to visually check for daylight inside of your chimney—or to feel for a draft, which may be generated by the difference in temperatures inside and outside of your home.

Creosote logs can help to reduce new creosote build-up by about 60%, however they don’t replace regular cleaning. While creosote logs can help to prevent build-up of creosote in your chimney, they won’t remove build-up that’s already there. Creosote logs can be used as a preventative measure in conjunction with regular cleaning, but you will still need to clean your chimney about once per year.
