"Al was fantastic! He clearly explained that my fireplace was shutting off as a safety feature due to low oxygen levels. He also reassembled the logs in the firebox and showed me the proper way to start and stop the fireplace. Highly recommend his service!"

"Omar and Victor did an excellent job. They inspected and cleaned the chimney and installed the new stove. Work was efficient and effective. They cleaned up after themselves and were extremely pleasant to spend the time with. I thank them for their good work. Whitney Schofield"

"I Highly recommend Brendan of Avery Masonry. I had a contractor coordination dilemma, between tiling, surround rebuilding, plastering around the surround to create a new fireplace look. I also had issues with my oil flu liner. He saved me from contractors overselling work that didn’t need to be done and those contractors that where not able to handle all parts of the redesign. He became the “general contractor” for my project and did an excellent job! Thank you Brendan."

"When we had our home inspected our inspector found that the partition wall was missing in our smoke box. We did not have enough time to have a mason come look at it but I contacted Jim via email to ask him about this issue. Jim was good about getting back to me and assuring us that it could be fixed and that it shouldn't break the bank. We decided to purchase the home and while doing some work we found that most of the stone facade was no longer attached to the fireplace. We called Jim to have him take a look at it. He said it would cost $100 to inspect our chimney but if we used him for work on the chimney that the $100 would go towards that bill. Luckily Jim found no other issues with our chimney except that the critter cage was separating a bit so he quickly fixed that. Jim said that extending the partition and rebuilding the stone facade would cost $1,500 and take one and a half days but that he wouldn't be available for 6 to 8 weeks. We decided to go with him because we thought the cost sounded reasonable and because other masons we had talked to previously said they couldn't even look at our chimney for weeks. When it came time to have the work done is when we ran into some issues. Jim originally said they would start on the day after Columbus day but then later told us that they would start on Columbus day but then on Columbus day he told us his associate didn't want to work on Columbus day so they would start around noon on the following day. This wasn't a big deal as it seemed like one guy decided he wanted to start early while the other wanted to take the holiday. Unfortunately, they didn't come the day after Columbus day either. There were several dropped calls that day and when I finally got in touch with Jim it was mid afternoon and he informed me that another job took too long and he wouldn't be able to start until the following day. He also told me at this point that the job would take three days instead of one and a half. They started on Wednesday but were unable to continue on Thursday because of a rainstorm. Unfortunately there was now a hole in our chimney and in the wall around the fireplace before a rainstorm was supposed to hit. I decided to cover the hole in the chimney with plastic to be safe. The following day Jim and his associate came back to finish the job. Unfortunately I came back to find that I had some cleaning to do. In the end they did a good job at a good price from what we can tell and in the number of days originally quoted. However, he pushed back the start date a couple of times, changed his mind on how long it would take, didn't think of covering the hole in our chimney before a rainstorm and left a bit of a mess. Since quality of work and price are most important we'd consider him for future work but may look into other masons as well.

"We had our chimney capped. The guys from 5-Star showed up on time, their quote was competitive (and very fair), and they were ready to do the work the same day, which they did. They did a couple of extras for us and cleaned everything up before they left. Damon sat down with us to show us pictures of what we needed done and then pictures of what it looks like now. Great Customer Service! One day - Done! And the best part: lifetime warranty on the cap! Highly recommend 5 Star Chimney Service!!"

"They inspected the chimney from up on the roof, something that the chimney sweeps that had been cleaning the chimney since 2016, when we first moved in, had never done. They took pics and showed us how the lining of the chimney was collapsing and it had been in this state for a long time. So in addition to cleaning the chimney, they also replaced the lining inside it. It was an expense I didn't expect, but we use the fireplace a lot and it needed to be done."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

One disadvantage of a wood furnace is that you need a constant supply of wood to run it. Even if you have a good amount of wood on your property (or have another way to get affordable wood), you’ll still need to chop it, store it, and re-fuel your furnace with it to keep your house heated. 

Cleaning your own chimney can be risky, especially if it hasn't been done in a long time and you lack the proper tools, knowledge, and safety equipment. The process involves getting onto the roof and handling soot, which poses safety issues. Remember, inhaling chimney soot is a significant health risk. Wearing the proper respiratory equipment is required.

A chimney cap costs about $300 on average to install, with prices ranging from $75 to $1,000. The final cost depends on several factors, including the professional you hire, the accessibility of your chimney, the cap's material and size, whether any repairs are needed, and if it requires custom fabrication. Chimney caps are usually made from galvanized steel, stainless steel, or copper. Copper caps are the most expensive, followed by stainless steel and then galvanized steel. Excluding labor, average material costs are around $100 for galvanized steel, $250 for stainless steel, and $600 for copper. You may also face additional costs, such as hiring a chimney sweep to clean the chimney before the cap is installed.

Like any other household appliance, electric fireplaces can wear out after about 10 to 20 years. With more frequent use, the parts will wear out quicker, and you may get just 7 to 10 years out of a well-loved electric fireplace. Fortunately, electric fireplaces come with a lower upfront installation cost compared to alternatives like gas, so you can install a replacement for less.

Gas fireplaces provide energy-efficient heating, low maintenance, and the convenience of instant ignition with remote control options.
