20+ yrs experience. Professional, quiet, clean, and affordable on all jobs. I have the manpower and equipment for all residential and commercial jobs. Indoor, outdoor, lawns, landscape, gutters, paint, wash houses/decks, paint inside and outside, Install, remove, you name it

"I couldn’t be more impressed with the outstanding job Ragstar Contractors did assembling our Gazebo. Despite the subpar instructions and the overwhelming number of parts, their team showed incredible patience, professionalism, and craftsmanship. They were able to piece everything together flawlessly, and the final result looks absolutely amazing. Their attention to detail and commitment to getting the job done right truly set them apart. I highly recommend Ragstar Contractors for any assembly or installation projects — they exceeded all expectations!"

Wood Stove Inspection questions, answered by experts

Most homeowners put a layer of compact sand or gravel at the bottom of their firepit, but you can also choose more decorative options like fire-resistant paving stones, bricks, or fire pit glass. Dirt by itself can even work, but other materials do a better job of spreading the heat around.

Yes, capped chimneys should still be vented. Failing to vent a chimney will result in condensation buildup inside the chimney, which commonly results in mold growth. If mold begins to grow in a chimney, it frequently goes undetected and spreads quickly through the home. Mold and moisture can damage the structural integrity of your home, and exposure to mold can cause discomfort and illness in residents.

Like other kinds of masonry and brickwork, a properly installed chimney should have a lifespan that extends beyond multiple generations of homeowners. But there are parts of the chimney that will need to be replaced more frequently. 

  • Clay tile or cast-in-place liners should be replaced every 50 years.

  • Stainless steel liners will last an average of 15–20 years.

  • Mortar will require replacement every 25–30 years.

  • Chimney crowns have an average lifespan of 50–75 years.

Well-seasoned hardwoods like oak, maple, hickory, and ash are the cleanest woods to burn in a fireplace. When properly dried, these woods have low moisture content, allowing them to burn hotter and produce less smoke, which minimizes creosote buildup. Ensure the wood is seasoned for at least six months for optimal burning.

No. Pellet stoves are specifically designed to burn manufactured wood or biomass pellets. Attempting to burn other materials, such as regular firewood or paper products, can damage the stove, compromise its efficiency, and even pose safety hazards due to inconsistent combustion and increased emissions. It's crucial to follow manufacturer guidelines and only use pellets that are specifically recommended for your pellet stove model to ensure safe and optimal performance over its life span.
