"Great work and professionally executed. The fireplace works better and the area above the opening of the fireplace is sealed and the chimney and flu are drawing better. I intend to have the annual inspections completed by Smalling Masonry, along with a cleaning of the firebox and chimney."

"Mr Dominguez and his assistant completed tuckpoint work in the stone around my home, repaired the concrete top of my chimney, and recaulked the flashing at the roof line, as well as tearing out and replacing a part of the stone which had fallen away from the house. The work was completed all in one day. They cleaned up all of their debris. He kept me informed throughout the project, sending me photos before, during and after. Very professional and friendly. I would highly recommend Dominguez Masonry."

Customers say: Quick response

"I needed a chimney chase/cap replaced. I had other quotes which were either twice the money or at least 20% more. What's more important is that Chimney Doctors contacted me quickly, Jeff came out and gave me an estimate the next day, which was of huge importance to me as I was selling my house. Once I gave the green light, the parts were fabricated and installed 3 business days later! Jeff was a pleasure to deal with, prompt, cordial, polite - an all-around professional. I highly recommend Chimney Doctors."

"I had a totally positive experience working with Sanders and sons Masonry for my foundation brick repairs, and my chimney cap replacement. They also cut out brick and put two glass block panels in too. Tim was very professional and explained the project in a way I could easily understand. He kept me informed, and did top-notch work. I highly recommend Tim and his workers to anyone looking to fix or restore their brick or block walls, and we will definitely use them again when needed."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

For most brick cleaning jobs, including fireplace bricks, use a masonry sponge and a gentle cleaner. A simple solution of equal parts water and vinegar, or a few drops of dish soap in a bowl of water, can effectively remove grime. For tougher stains, you can use a dedicated masonry or fireplace cleaner. It is crucial to wet the bricks thoroughly with water before applying any cleaning solution to prevent the brick from absorbing it, and to rinse the surface completely afterward. Harsher cleaners containing bleach or ammonia should only be used as a last resort, and they should never be mixed together.

To ensure your wood stove heats the whole house, measure the square footage of your home and choose a wood stove designed to heat that amount of space. More efficient wood stoves, such as those made of soapstone or those with catalytic combustors, can more easily heat larger spaces for less money.

You can close up a chimney instead of demolishing it. Homeowners often go this route because the cost of removing a chimney, especially a structurally important chimney, can be expensive.

Properly closing up a chimney involves closing and sealing the damper, installing a chimney cap damper, and sealing the fireplace opening with a door or bricks. The cost to seal and cap a chimney is around $500 to $650—significantly less than the average chimney removal cost.

The easiest fireplace to build is an electric fireplace. These aren’t true fireplaces but can mimic the look of a traditional fireplace. True fireplaces, made of brick and stone, are complex and require professional installation; adding them to an existing home is demanding and expensive. You could spend $30,000 to have a real fireplace installed.

In short, yes, gas fireplaces create fewer pollutants and are considered more environmentally friendly than traditional ones. In general, natural gas fireplaces release only half to two-thirds as much CO2 per unit of heat (BTU) as burning wood. Plus, gas fireplaces emit fewer harmful particles and air pollutants. They can also be about three times as efficient as wood in terms of heating your home, resulting in a much higher level of their energy converting into heat.
