Q: How often does a chimney need to be repointed and how long does the new pointing last?

• <div><p>When done correctly by a professional, chimney repointing can last for several decades&mdash;often 30 years or more. This maintenance is crucial for keeping the chimney structure sound, improving its waterproofing, and preventing more significant and costly repairs, such as a partial or complete rebuild. It is recommended to schedule an annual inspection to catch any potential issues early. If you notice the chimney's brickwork looks worn out or crumbly, you should hire a professional to inspect it.</p></div>

Q: Does a fireplace make home insurance more expensive?

• <div><p>Wood-burning fireplaces typically make homeowners insurance more expensive, simply because they increase the risk for a fire in your home. Gas and electric inserts are less likely to bring up your insurance rates, but you should always speak with your agent to understand how installing any type of fireplace will affect your premiums. </p></div>

Q: How long does fireplace repair take?

• <div><p>Most repairs take 2-6 hours, but extensive fixes or part replacements may require additional time.</p></div>

Q: Are pellet stoves noisy?

• <div><p>Pellet stoves are designed to operate quietly, often emitting only a soft hum from the combustion fan and auger. Compared to traditional wood-burning stoves or furnaces, modern pellet stoves are relatively quiet during operation. This minimal noise ensures they can efficiently heat living spaces without causing disruption, making them a preferred choice for those seeking both comfort and peace of mind.</p></div>

Q: What do you put in the bottom of a fire pit?

• <div><p>Most homeowners put a layer of compact sand or gravel at the bottom of their firepit, but you can also choose more decorative options like fire-resistant paving stones, bricks, or fire pit glass. Dirt by itself can even work, but other materials do a better job of spreading the heat around.</p></div>
