I've done extensive remodeling and repair for a number of years. Have two people that work for me full time. Subcontractors are used only as needed and normally is only an electrician. The rest of the work is done by us. Both people that work for me have various talents and many years of experience. Both are trust worthy and I have never had any problem with either of them.

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

When your fireplace is not in use for longer periods of time, such as over the summer, you can keep smells at bay by spraying either a commercial fireplace deodorizing product or a blend of one part distilled white vinegar to one part water around the walls of the fireplace. 

Or, you can place a container of charcoal inside the fireplace to absorb odors. Just be sure to remove it before it’s time to start using the fireplace again.

Fireplace repair costs around $600 on average, but simple repairs can total as low as $100, while more complex repairs could reach up to $2,500 or more. The specific repair will be the most significant factor. Here are some common fireplace repairs below, along with the average pricing of each:

  • Firebox repair: $160–$2,500

  • Gas valve repair: $150–$300

  • Hearth repair: $150–$800

  • Igniter repair: $100–$150

  • Mantel repair: $500–$1,200

  • Pilot light repair: $100–$350

  • Refractory panel repair: $200–$300

  • Thermocouple repair: $75–$350

  • Thermopile repair: $75–$350

Compared to certain types of firewood like pine or spruce—which burn off sticky resin contained within the wood that creates lots of smoke—elm isn’t the worst option for burning in a fireplace.

Because elm wood is dense, it burns at a moderate pace and does a pretty good job of keeping your home warm. Hardwood like maple or oak may perform slightly better, but elm isn’t a bad choice overall.

Your state, city, or even homeowners insurance company may have requirements on how far the outdoor wood furnace should be from the house, so be sure to abide by those regulations. In general, you should install an outdoor wood furnace or boiler as few as 30 feet or as much as 500 feet from the house or any other building.

To build a patio with a built-in fire pit, expect to pay an average of $6,750. The cost to build a patio alone is an average of $3,500. Although the cost of construction is higher, the patio and fire pit combination offers a better resale value than a patio alone or a patio with a fire pit add-on.
