"BA Klaene and Son went above and beyond to ensure that the foundation repair on our older home (100+ years old) was done in a thorough and professional manner. The job ended up being a little more complex than anticipated and they did more work than originally contracted for to ensure the longevity of the repair. They did not charge additional for the extra work and time and were the ultimate professionals during the entire process."
"Jeremy did a great job cleaning our chimney. He was punctual, professional and thorough. I would recommend chimney works for chimney cleanings and inspections prior to purchasing a new home."
"The workers and office staff were easy to talk to, well informed, courteous , and efficient. They performed a thorough inspection. Recommended and installed a stainless liner and cap for the furnace flue and a new damper on the fireplace flue. Their price was better than previous quotes and even set up a partial payment plan. I am very pleased with the work they did."
"The tech was great. He did a simple job that I am no longer able to do. It was a little more expensive than I would have liked but that isen't on him. The job was also delayed by 1 week do to them cancelling the first appointment. I would have appreiciated a discount from the company for waiting a week."

You can safely build a fire pit on your patio as long as you use porous, fire-resistant pavers or a fire pit mat over existing pavers. Otherwise, you’ll need to have exposed ground beneath your pit. You’ll also need to make sure the location for the fire pit is far enough away from your house and any other nearby structures.
Knowing who to hire to install your fireplace is important when it comes to having a safe place to burn a fire in your home. The best person to contact for installing fireplaces is a mason or general contractor who has a National Fireplace Institute (NFI) specialist certification. If you’re installing wood paneling, then it’s a good idea to also find a pro who is Wood Energy Technology Transfer (WETT)-certified.
Both of these certifications show that your pro is well-equipped to install fireplaces and inspect your home for the utmost safety.
Depending on the model of your fireplace, you can leave your pilot light on year-round. This does use a small amount of fuel, so you’ll save on your energy bill by turning off the pilot light seasonally. Keep in mind that some gas fireplace models don’t have a standing pilot light.
They’re both types of wood-burning fireplaces, but a wood fireplace is built directly into a wall and attached to a chimney. A built-in wood fireplace often has an open hearth, although some models have an enclosed hearth. On the other hand, a wood-burning fireplace insert is a self-contained box that slides into an existing fireplace opening.
There is no universal remote that will work for all gas fireplaces or electric models. That’s because different remotes are designed to work with specific fireplace wiring, so some remotes may only work for on/off functions, while others work with fireplaces that have extra settings, such as timers or programmable thermostats. If you need a new remote, ensure the replacement is compatible with your specific fireplace model.
