"Aurel came to do a cleaning on wood burning fireplace in house recently purchased and repaired a crack on outside. After cleaning showed us cracks inside fireplace that needed to be sealed to prevent fire hazard, upgrade to flu and replacement of crown. Very honest in assessment, detailed in explanation and fair price. While his guys were repairing crown, also noticed cracks in concrete under crown which is where water had gotten in and caused original crack below they had fixed . Took pics and explained what had found and solution to seal with weatherproof compound. 2nd chimney on house recently redone by previous owner but concrete on top not done correctly and entirely crumbling so cleaned that up and poured new concrete. Also exhaust pipe not properly sealed. Gave me before and after pics of everything. I appreciate their thoroughness in looking at everything, not just job we had discussed. This saved us a lot of money down the road if damages on roof werenâ t caught now. They were on time, clean and professional. I would highly recommend."

"Al was fantastic! He clearly explained that my fireplace was shutting off as a safety feature due to low oxygen levels. He also reassembled the logs in the firebox and showed me the proper way to start and stop the fireplace. Highly recommend his service!"

"Albert gave me good impression immediately when he took off his work boots before coming in the house to check the fireplace/chimney. He didn't hesitate going up on the roof, unlike other company said they'll find out when they come to clean the chimney. Albert took pictures and explained to me repairs were needed. He answered my husband's questions promptly before we contracted him to do the work. Of course, we won't know for sure how good the flashing repair was until next rain/snow storm. By the way he offered to clean my stuck up gutters while he was up on the roof and later repaired my disconnected down-spout, I have confidence in his quality of work."

The cost to replace a chimney damper ranges from $160 to $520, depending on the type of damper and the complexity of the installation. If you're looking to repair an existing damper, expect to pay around $100 and $225, depending on the extent of the damage and your location. Hiring a professional ensures proper installation or repair, which can help maintain energy efficiency and prevent drafts, making it a worthwhile investment for long-term savings.

If you’re looking for a cost-effective alternative to a traditional chimney, consider having a dummy chimney installed. Dummy chimneys can either be aesthetic-only or fully functional and can be installed on both new and older homes. Whether installed to match your neighborhood’s aesthetic or to vent your chimney, dummy chimneys are made out of a Glass-Reinforced Plastic (GRP) core, then covered with brick or stone slips to look like a traditional chimney.

There are a few things you can keep an eye out for that indicate you may need to call in a gas fireplace repair tech:

  • Your fireplace pilot light won’t stay on.

  • You notice the smell of rotten eggs.

  • You hear hissing coming from the gas fireplace.

  • You notice a soot build-up.

  • The fire goes out unexpectedly.

If you notice a rotten egg smell or hear hissing, you could have a gas leak, which is extremely dangerous. Call the fire department and your gas company first to shut off the gas and air out your home before calling for a repair.

In some cases, you can use a fireplace once the insert has been removed. However, before burning a fire, you must have a professional inspect it and the chimney to make sure they're functioning properly and no damage has occurred from removing the insert. That’s because using a fireplace without an insert could create fire hazards due to issues with airflow and heat dispersion, depending on the fireplace design and material. A professional can advise on whether you should make certain repairs or modifications before using your fireplace as an open hearth.

A well-constructed and regularly maintained brick chimney can last 50 to 100 years, potentially spanning multiple generations of homeowners. The exact lifespan depends on the quality of construction, materials, local environment, and maintenance. In contrast, a metal chimney typically lasts 15 to 20 years. While the main structure is durable, individual components have shorter lifespans and require more frequent replacement. For example, mortar may need repointing every 20 to 30 years, chimney crowns last 50 to 75 years, and liners can last anywhere from 15 to 50 years depending on the material (e.g., stainless steel vs. cast-in-place).
