"We were told our custom 1970s stone fireplace with a hole in the fire box was a tear out by companies who sell fireplaces and fireboxes, and this is a $20k -no exaggerating $20k- fix if we wanted to replace the enormous fire place in our home. We had some buyers remorse for this home at that point because no service was available for a tear out either unless they also did the rebuild work so removing it wasn't an option. We have been stuck for years without use the of a large fixure. We thought a repair might be a short term solution and it ended up being a long term solution and with repairs we are LOVING the fireplace experience. The repairs are beautiful. I plan to finish the rest of the fire box next season."

"They've maintenanced my furnace before I required a new one and they've always maintenanced the new one since I got it replaced about 3 years ago. Very easy to work with. I think I've been using them since 2008."

"I have a 116 year old Victorian that I purchased 10 years ago and have essentially rebuilt from the lawn and driveway all the way to the roof.  Originally contacted for an insurance repair, Jay and his team have responded to all my very detailed and demanding needs and wants - specifically making a 116 year old home look both new and old at the same time, preserving the integrity of the home while modernizing the foundations (walls, ceilings, chimneys, etc...), and to always, always leave all repairs camouflaged into the history of the structure.  The recent project required a rebuild in the foyer, including a very detailed paneled staircase and balcony that was turned into a closet roughly 40 years ago.  This project requires both structural knowledge and creativity, and a lot of patience when handed a picture and being told "Make this look like that."  But he delivers and allows me to work with them (which is probably really annoying) and ask a lot of questions to learn and further my own skills.  Further, I am the queen of "add-ons" and while some of these are small it has also happened that one was an entire exterior wall.  Jay always offers options and thoroughly discusses these options and is open and honest about his professional opinions and experiences.  Of course some repairs have required reworking, although not many, and Jay did not give up until I was completely satisfied with the end-result.

I have four more rooms to finish in this house - and I will call Nyboer builders for these rooms too.  Even though Jay loves to remind me that he could have built me a brand new house for what I have invested in this one, he knows I love this house and he treats the work in that exact fashion.

"Matt did a great job. He had to go in the attic to install a bracket to secure the chandelier. Then climbed a tall ladder to install the chandelier. Matt was very knowledgeable about the job, very timely and clean. I highly recommend Matt."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

A properly constructed and maintained chimney crown can last 50 to 75 years. However, its lifespan can be significantly shorter—20 years or less—if it was poorly constructed, improperly installed, or damaged. Factors like using the wrong materials or failing to prepare the brick around the flue can lead to moisture buildup and premature breakdown, potentially resulting in a more costly rebuild.

If you would rather use vinegar to clean the stone fireplace instead of dish soap, this mixture should work fine. Vinegar is slightly acidic, however, so it may etch some kinds of stone without quite a bit of diluting. For a stone fireplace, dilute it to about one cup of vinegar for every gallon of hot water. It’s a smart idea to test the diluted mixture in an inconspicuous area of the fireplace and watch for etching. You can use vinegar to clean quite a few different items around your home, and it’s especially good at removing stains.

Once your ashes have fully cooled, you can place them in a heavy-duty trash bag and put them into the bin with your normal trash. If you have wood ash, you can add the ash to your composting pile or sprinkle it over your grass or plants directly for added nutrients.

If your gas fireplace is vented through a chimney, a chimney cap is highly recommended. While not all gas fireplaces require a traditional chimney, for those that use one, a cap provides several key benefits. It prevents rain, debris, and animals from entering the chimney, which can cause blockages or damage. A cap also helps prevent downdrafts that could push harmful gases like carbon monoxide back into your home. When installing a cap, ensure it is appropriate for a gas fireplace and does not restrict proper ventilation.

The damper, located just above the firebox, can open or close the chimney flue. The damper should remain closed unless there’s a fire burning in the fireplace. Closing the damper prevents energy loss through the chimney and cold air from seeping into the home during the winter. Opening the damper helps maintain airflow when there is a fire and prevents smoke and gases from venting into the house.
