Q: How do you get a smoke smell out of your house?

• <div><p>Smoke can be tricky to remove from your home, especially after a fire. The best way to eliminate the smell is to open the windows to increase ventilation and air circulation in your house. Then, use white vinegar to wipe down walls, furniture, and floors. Try steam-cleaning carpet and other upholstered items to remove the smell of smoke.</p></div>

Q: Is food cooked in a smoking oven safe to eat?

• <div><p>It depends. For new ovens, it&rsquo;s best to run a few empty cycles to prepare the oven for use and to keep any manufacturing byproducts from entering your food. But if your oven is smoking due to a few burnt pieces of old food, then it probably won&rsquo;t hurt to eat it. If there&rsquo;s a lot of smoke, then your food probably won&rsquo;t taste good, even if it might not be harmful to consume.</p></div>

"We chose Roseville Fireside because they had completed several previous jobs for us. I was very fortunate to have worked with Jamie Shea. He exceeded my expectations for customer service. He assisted us with picking out the proper color and stone style to compliment our wood floors and mahogany woodwork. He made a site visit to take measurements and thoroughly walked us through the process. Jamie was always prompt, courteous and very thorough. The mason crew of Randy and Andy were prompt, courteous and cleaned up the project area. I would highly recommend Fireside for updating a fireplace. If you are so fortunate to work with Jamie Shea on your project, you will be pleasantly surprised with his professionalism and can do attitude."
