"We needed to replace our old inoperable pre-fab fireplace with a new one and called Steve for an estimate. From our initial meeting to the finished job, Steve exceeded our expectations. He is a "one man show," quotes a fair price (with no cost overruns), understands what you want, is knowledgeable about what he does, completes the job as promised and takes pride in his work. We could not recommend him more highly. The end product was a fantastic fireplace!"

"Gothic completed multi-faceted work including removal of chimney, replace framing and roofing along with building a new gas fireplace bump out where the old chimney was. After removal and disposal of the old brick and block chimney Gothic replaced water damaged structural members, replaced sheathing on both the wall and roof and framed and sheathed a new gas fireplace insert bump out. Gothic resided the new bump out matching the old vinyl siding perfectly, installed asphalt shingles on the repaired roof section, again matching the old work perfectly. All work was permitted and passed inspection with no issues, and they removed all the construction debris and cleaned the area such that I had no cleanup to do. I will be hiring them again for future work."
Most projects take 5-10 days, including foundation work, masonry, and finishing.
Yes, burning wood with Dutch elm disease is a safer way to dispose of it than, say, tossing it in with the rest of your yard waste, which could potentially allow it to spread to healthy trees. But it’s always a good idea to check with your local government to make sure you’re complying with any ordinances about removing diseased trees as well as burning brush piles.
Some of the reasons a chimney damper won't close properly include shoddy installation, age-related damage, or heavy snow or ice affecting a top-sealing type.
