"Worked in the rain and the heat to complete the job. Repaired loose shingles, replaced material around vents that was rotten; also, found another area with same problem and repaired. Cleaned up when completed. Also did additional little odds and ends I asked about."

Hello, my name is Tator, I have been working in various trades since I was 15, starting with cutting wood, and then moving to full scale tree service, and ever since I've been interested in developing my next skill, and quickly developed a passion for high quality craftsmanship, and have always loved a challenge. For almost 2 years I worked as a handyman for a local business (Joes Garage) working directly alongside the owner, who was a journeyman millwright by trade, needless to say there was no job we couldn't handle, we did roofing, electrical, drywall, flooring, outdoor patio lighting systems, grout and tile work, lawn care, painting interior and exterior, small engine repair, most of which ide also had previous experience with. I set my expectations high and exceed goals wherever possible, giving a professional, but personal touch with every service no matter what the task, because believe how you do anything is how you do everything.

I’ve been working in apartment maintenance for almost 4 years now, but have helped my family with all sorts of projects for the last 18 years. If there’s something I don’t know how to do, I always love to learn! I pride myself in the quality of work I do, as well as my ability to communicate clearly through every step of a project.

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

DIY is not recommended due to safety and venting requirements. Professional installation ensures proper operation and compliance with codes.

Your chimney comes with dampers, which are similar to air vents. Dampers are metal plates that allow hot air and smoke to flow from the fireplace up your chimney and out of your home. When you close the damper, it prevents cool air from getting into your home. This is why you’ll want to check to make sure your damper is open before starting your fireplace and you want to ensure it’s closed after the fire goes out. You can open and close them via an external knob, pull chain, or lever. 

You can use normal bricks as cladding for a concrete or clay pizza oven or as a base underneath one. Fire bricks or solid clay bricks are necessary for an outdoor pizza oven’s floor, and you can use clay bricks for the rest of the oven.

Yes, you can put a freestanding one in a corner if you’re tight on space. Because pellet stoves don’t get as hot as other types of wood stoves, there only needs to be 3 inches of clearance from the wall on each side. Placing it in a corner should not impact the ventilation—you’ll still need to follow safety precautions by not installing too close to a window. Typically, it’s 4 feet from a window or 18 inches if the stove uses an external air source for combustion. Always check the owner’s manual for specific instructions.

A chimney requires both a cover and a cap, but these parts often get confused with one another. A chimney cover seals the top of the chimney around the flue pipe to prevent water from entering the chimney. A chimney cap is a piece that sits above the flue to prevent animals, debris, and water from entering the flue.
