"When we discovered that the top of our chimney needed repairs, and that the whole chimney needed to be a foot higher to meet code, we looked for a chimney design that would look good, and a person to accomplish this. When Anthony from Four Winds Masonry and Chimney came to meet us, he impressed us by his knowledge and experience of chimneys and his attention to our thoughts and concerns. He proposed a lift rather than scaffolding that could scar our new roof and offered to bring samples of bricks that most closely matched out existing chimney. He also seemed delighted to have an artistic challenge. The work took 4 days, as he said, and we are thrilled with the results which add to the look of the house. Anthony and his helper Kyle were a pleasure to know and to have working around the house, did an excellent job and left the site perfectly clean. Wolf & Elizabeth S."

"We were looking for a contractor that could stabilize our side porches (bi-level) and enclose it with the largest windows possible for the space. We had sided the house years ago and covered some of the known potential structural ills of the side porch with aluminum coil. So we knew, an estimate was only going to be an best guess until they tore into the project. In the end...we ended up paying roughly 17% more than the original contract amount. However, this was almost expected or anticipated. I was most pleased with the fact that they did not simply try to cover up these challenges just to finish the job! The primary worker on this project "Lou" was excellent and very meticulous with his work. He was thorough and a wonderful craftsman! While the project was somewhat interrupted by the COVID-19 issues with our window manufacturer, the end result was most pleasing. We had originally projected keeping the interior in tact, but during deconstruction, we found the wainscot needed replacement as well. While I would have preferred to have Lou finish the interior, I ended up completing the interior myself due to cost and income issues on my part. While I was working to finish the interior, we visited by a rainstorm and there was a minor leak over one of the new windows. I wrote to Mark Genovese about this challenge and Lou was here the very next day to add some sealant to the coil over the windows, VERY Responsive! We have had no leaks since. I would highly recommend Genovese Home Improvement as a trusted contractor. Mark Genovese was professional and I would feel completely comfortable hiring his company in the future for any of my home improvement needs. We had a great experience with this company."

"The workers and office staff were easy to talk to, well informed, courteous , and efficient. They performed a thorough inspection. Recommended and installed a stainless liner and cap for the furnace flue and a new damper on the fireplace flue. Their price was better than previous quotes and even set up a partial payment plan. I am very pleased with the work they did."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

Homeowners insurance may cover chimney leaks, repairs, or replacement, but coverage depends on the cause of the damage. If the chimney is damaged by a sudden, covered peril like a lightning strike, storm, hail, fallen tree, or an unexpected fire, your policy is likely to cover the costs. However, insurance generally does not cover damage resulting from normal wear and tear, old age, or a lack of proper maintenance, such as failing to perform regular cleanings and inspections. If a fire or other damage is caused by a known issue you didn't address, the claim may be denied. Additionally, some policies may have specific exclusions for events like high winds or earthquakes.

Yes, you can operate an electric fireplace (and other types of fireplaces) without the remote. If you’ve misplaced the remote or are waiting for the replacement to arrive, you can still control the fireplace at the access panel. You can find the access panel near the firebox, typically located at the bottom or top of this section.

Cleaning your own chimney can be risky, especially if it hasn't been done in a long time and you lack the proper tools, knowledge, and safety equipment. The process involves getting onto the roof and handling soot, which poses safety issues. Remember, inhaling chimney soot is a significant health risk. Wearing the proper respiratory equipment is required.

Modern wood-burning stoves are very effective, reaching around 80% efficiency. That’s because models built after 1988 are designed to meet standards set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to operate more efficiently and produce less air pollution. If you have an older wood stove, it may not be as efficient.

No, not all chimneys need a damper. However, most chimneys do, especially in newer homes. Most gas-burning fireplaces cannot function safely without a damper. Only some older wood-burning fireplaces can function safely without one. A chimney without a damper is essentially just an open hole in the roof of your home.
