Q: Which way is open on a fireplace flue?

• <div><p>Your fireplace flue is open when the chimney is unsealed and open to the outside air and sky. That&rsquo;s why one of the best ways to figure out if your flue is open is to visually check for daylight inside of your chimney&mdash;or to feel for a draft, which may be generated by the difference in temperatures inside and outside of your home.</p></div>

Q: Why do you need to inspect a fireplace?

• <div><p>An annual inspection can ensure that a fireplace is in proper working order to avoid fire hazards and the release of carbon monoxide into the home. Not all fireplace issues, especially blockages, are easily visible from inside or outside the home, which is why a professional must conduct a thorough internal inspection of all of the fireplace and chimney components.</p></div>

Q: Can I use an existing chimney for a wood-burning stove?

• <div><p>Yes, you can use an existing chimney with a wood-burning stove if it meets specific requirements. The stove&rsquo;s vent pipe size must be compatible with the size of your chimney flue. Your contractor can tell you whether your chimney is suitable for installation.</p></div>

Q: Should you buy or build an outdoor fireplace?

• <div><p>Deciding whether to buy a prebuilt fireplace kit or build one from scratch comes down to aesthetics, available space, and budget. Many homeowners like the convenience and lower cost of prebuilt options&mdash;around <b>$1,500</b>&mdash;versus the involved planning and construction of a larger fireplace. Another bonus: you can usually move prebuilt units. Custom projects are more common when homeowners have access to a larger budget and more area in the yard to place the fireplace. </p></div>

Q: Can you convert an electric fireplace to gas?

• <div><p>There isn&rsquo;t a way to convert electric fireplaces easily or cheaply to gas. The process requires major renovations, as opposed to wood fireplaces, which are often already vented and have space for the gas-burning equipment. To convert an electric fireplace to gas, you&rsquo;d need to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-average-cost-remove-gas-fireplace.htm">remove your old fireplace</a> and get a completely new install.</p></div>

I'm 23 years old, I have a daughter, my parents are ex-military so they were very strict about the definition of cleanliness, I have cleaned people's homes from where it looked like there was no hope of entering with a never ending stench all the way back to a beautiful smelling home that's presentable to anyone. Every time I clean someone's home they always compliment my services and always seem shocked at how amazing I do and I can accommodate to each and every household based off of what each household does and doesn't allow in their homes. For instance if a service requires that they don't want me to use any harsh chemical cleaners in their home (for instance bleach) I can obtain plant based alternative cleaners for that specific job. I'm also told I have a very open and warming personality and approach but I can't prove that unless I'm hired for the job. But I would love to help clean your home or even fully renew it together. Don't hesitate to reach out, I'll be happy to help!
