I have over 30 plus years of experience in the cleaning field I have done anything from deep queens move outs make ready strip and waxing of floors high and low speed buffing bonneting shampoo and extracting of carpets I've worked at the learning stay Hospital straight out of high school for about 4 years and then I've done hotels restaurants construction sites supervised and train for DNA services in Sedgwick County a couple times with equals out to approximately 10 years and they do commercial facilities and businesses. I've done deep & general cleaning such as dusting Windows trash sweep mop vacuum, things like that. I believe you should get what you're pay for and the quality should most definitely match the quantity. It may sound crazy but I actually enjoy it for one once you complete whatever cleaning task it may be you can always tell the difference and it's so nice to look at a job well done so not only is it making the client happy it makes me happy as well.

Fireplaces FAQs, answered by experts

No, not all chimneys need a damper. However, most chimneys do, especially in newer homes. Most gas-burning fireplaces cannot function safely without a damper. Only some older wood-burning fireplaces can function safely without one. A chimney without a damper is essentially just an open hole in the roof of your home.

Wood is classified as either hardwood or softwood. For firewood, hardwoods are generally the best choice as they tend to burn longer, hotter, and produce less smoke than softwoods. Recommended hardwoods include oak, hickory, maple, cherry, ash, beech, birch, elm, and walnut. Oak is a particularly good option as it's widely available, slow-burning, and doesn't produce much smoke or sparks. Some woods, like oak, hickory, and cherry, also emit a pleasant scent. It is best to avoid softwoods such as eucalyptus, poplar, and willow, as they create a lot of smoke and have a high moisture content that makes them difficult to light and burn efficiently.

The length of time it takes to repoint your chimney depends on its design and the extent of damage, but generally, the process takes a couple of days. You can expect just one to two days for a small job or up to four days for a larger chimney or more complex project.

Chimney liners often benefit from insulation, though it is not always required. Insulation helps improve the liner's efficiency by keeping flue gasses hotter, which enhances draft and reduces creosote buildup. It also prevents condensation, which can lead to corrosion. Insulation is important for chimneys on exterior walls or in colder climates. Some building codes may require insulation, so checking local regulations is essential.

While hardwoods are the best woods to burn, a few types of woods should be avoided when burning. Wood that has not had time to season, or “green wood,” should be avoided. The extra water in the wood makes it smoke horribly, which is not a quality you want. Additionally, it’s best to avoid any wood that is manufactured or has been treated, including coated or sealed wood, painted wood, or pressure-treated wood. These woods have chemicals that will be released into your air when burned and can cause health problems.
