"I would definitely recommend this family owned company. I have already given their card to 4 of my friends that want work done to their fireplaces. Itâ s become difficult to find people to hire. I was a little nervous about hiring a stranger from the internet but I was hoping that my first time using Angi would work out. I have no regrets. John Dennis returned my message the very same day I contacted him through Angi. He was at my house that same week giving me an estimate. Thomas did the install. I would highly recommend him. He is very knowledgeable and explained everything he did and kindly answered all my questions. He was so thorough. He took his time to make sure that everything was perfect before he left. I am very much enjoying this gas fireplace with remote."

Fireplaces FAQs, answered by experts

The answer can vary widely based on a home's age and design. As with any type of remodeling project, assume that every structure is load-bearing until confirming otherwise with a structural engineer. Almost all modern homes have chimneys that are fully independent from the rest of the home's framing. As a result, they don't bear any load beyond their own weight. However, many historic homes built prior to the 1900s contain load-bearing chimneys that tie into the surrounding roof and floor joists. If possible, use a home's blueprints or look for chimney connections that indicate load-bearing qualities to get your answer.

Chimney sweeps perform three levels of inspections:

  1. Level One: This is a basic annual inspection, often a visual inspection during cleaning, which is the most affordable.

  2. Level Two: This stage is ideal when selling or buying a home as it involves an inspection of the attic and roof, which is moderately priced.

  3. Level Three: This is a very thorough inspection that should take place after major storms or earthquakes, which is the most costly type of inspection.

Labor and regional factors contribute to cost variation, but typical rates for thorough cleaning range from $100 to $250, depending on the chimney type.

Fireplace inserts have several potential disadvantages. The cost of the insert and its installation can be a significant investment, as the process can be complicated and expensive, particularly if modifications to the existing fireplace are necessary. Aesthetically, some people find that inserts lack the traditional look and authentic ambiance of an open, crackling fire. There are also ongoing costs for maintenance, cleaning, and fuel. Fuel type can be a limitation; for example, an insert may be unusable if you don't have access to its specific fuel source. Maintenance and repairs can also require specialized services, especially for gas or electric models. Finally, while an insert is more efficient than an open fireplace, it may not heat a home as evenly as a central HVAC system.

In some cases, you can use a fireplace once the insert has been removed. However, before burning a fire, you must have a professional inspect it and the chimney to make sure they're functioning properly and no damage has occurred from removing the insert. That’s because using a fireplace without an insert could create fire hazards due to issues with airflow and heat dispersion, depending on the fireplace design and material. A professional can advise on whether you should make certain repairs or modifications before using your fireplace as an open hearth.
