Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

Avoid using abrasive cleansing powders on natural stone, as these products could damage the porous material. Using bleach is also a poor idea because of the porosity of the stone. Avoid using a scrub brush with metal bristles, as they could scratch the stone. If you know who manufactured your stone or who installed the fireplace, you may want to contact that entity for any advice on cleaning it safely.

The best way to clean fireplace bricks is to use a mild solution on saturated bricks. An equal mixture of water and vinegar or a drop of dish soap in a bowl of water can help remove grime from fireplace bricks. Make sure you wet the bricks thoroughly before applying the cleaner and rinse them after you’re done to prevent damage.

Replacing older chimneys or fireplaces, like wood-burning stoves, with something more eco-friendly can actually increase the value of your home. Some homeowners opt to remove chimneys as they pursue LEED certification, which may also increase the value of your home. But in general, many potential buyers actually look for operational fireplaces in homes, so removing a chimney and fireplace could decrease your home’s value by up to $5,000.

Cracked panels, worn-out seals, faulty dampers, and firebrick damage often need professional attention.

Cleaning and inspection costs range from $150 to $500, depending on chimney height, soot buildup, and necessary repairs.
