"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."

Customers say: Terrific value

"Great experience with this crew for our fireplace replacement. They were hard workers from start to finish, and I was especially impressed with how well they matched the new brick to our existing exterior — you can barely tell where the old work ends and the new begins. Overall a really nice job and would recommend them to anyone in the area."

"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."

"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

The cost difference between a gas fireplace and a wood-burning fireplace depends on the type of wood-burning fireplace installed. The cost to install a gas fireplace tends to be cheaper than the cost to install a brick wood-burning fireplace. Installing a gas fireplace costs about $3,600 on average, whereas the cost to build a masonry wood-burning fireplace can go up to $30,000. The cost to install a wood-burning fireplace insert or stove can cost from $700 to $6,500, about the same as a gas fireplace on average.

Firewood tends to be cheaper during the spring and summer. When the demand for firewood is lower during these seasons, many firewood companies offer lower prices and added discounts. In addition, the supply of firewood is typically higher in these months, meaning the quality is typically higher as well.

The cost to replace a chimney is about $10,000 on average and can cost up to $15,000, depending on the size, accessibility, materials, and extent of the replacement. Sometimes tearing the chimney down to the roof line and rebuilding it is an option. But if the chimney's internal structure deteriorates badly enough, a complete demolition down to the fireplace or the foundation may be necessary.

The cost to rebuild a fireplace varies dramatically depending on what you want to do and the type of fireplace you are rebuilding. A simple electric fireplace can be replaced with ease and at a low cost. On the other end of the spectrum, a wood-burning fireplace could cost well into the tens of thousands. The good news is functioning fireplaces increase your home’s value and are generally a good investment.

The answer can vary widely based on a home's age and design. As with any type of remodeling project, assume that every structure is load-bearing until confirming otherwise with a structural engineer. Almost all modern homes have chimneys that are fully independent from the rest of the home's framing. As a result, they don't bear any load beyond their own weight. However, many historic homes built prior to the 1900s contain load-bearing chimneys that tie into the surrounding roof and floor joists. If possible, use a home's blueprints or look for chimney connections that indicate load-bearing qualities to get your answer.
