Q: Do electric fireplaces give off a lot of heat?

• <div><p>Electric fireplaces give off more heat than you might think. Because they don&rsquo;t lose heat through a ventilation system, which is required for wood-burning and gas fireplaces, they&rsquo;re able to disperse more heat into the room. However, many electric fireplaces are limited to a max of 5,000 or 5,200 BTU heat output, and you can get more from traditional fireplaces. </p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to clean and inspect an oil-fired chimney?

• <div><p>The cost to clean and inspect an oil-fired chimney generally ranges from $150 to $500. The price is influenced by factors such as the chimney's height, the level of soot buildup, local labor costs, and whether any additional repairs or liner replacements are required.</p></div>

Q: Do fireplace repair companies need to be licensed?

• <div><p>Certain fireplace repairs will require that your contractor is licensed, including anything that involves moving, installing, or repairing gas lines. In that case, your professional will need to be a certified plumber. You can use Angi&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm">licensing lookup tool</a> to confirm that the company you&rsquo;re hiring is properly licensed. Most states don&rsquo;t have specific license requirements for other fireplace repairs, but most demand at least a general contractor&rsquo;s license. It&rsquo;s also a good idea to look for companies certified by the National Fireplace Institute, as those pros tend to be more qualified to carry out the repair.</p></div>

Q: What time of year is firewood cheapest?

• <div><p>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. </p></div>

Q: What’s the best time of year to clean a chimney?

• <div><p>The best time to clean your chimney is before you need to use it, which for most people is during the spring, summer, or early fall. Spring and summer are often ideal because the chimney is not in use, and chimney sweeps can access the roof more easily without snow and ice. The warmer months are also better for making any necessary repairs. To avoid the rush when chimney sweeps get booked up in early spring and late fall, scheduling your cleaning for the summer can be a safe bet. It's recommended to book your annual chimney sweep during these warmer months to maintain a yearly schedule.</p></div>

"We bought a home that is a large renovation project and needed a professional to install shower pans and prep the showers for tilework. We had David out and it was clear from the start that he was going to be amazing to work with. David is, by far, the most professional contractor I have ever worked with. He is always on time, never had any excuses, was quick to do his work, and moreover...his work is superior. I cannot say enough good things about our experience and anyone needing tile work or bathroom prep work, look no further. Seriously. David and Dennis are the best and you won't ever be disappointed with their work. I am really glad we found them and will absolutely use them for any projects I have in the future."
