"The company responded and set up an appointment immediately. At the end, our lined chimney didn't need any cleaning. The technician inspected both liners, for the gas heater and the wood burning insert. He just charged us for the inspection. No unnecessary service. We have now peace of mind for a while."

"Vinny and Eric are the owners of All County Chimney, do all of the work and are fully insured. They arrived on time, protected the area surrounding the fireplace and discussed the approach they would use to clean the chimney. The original plan was to clean the chimney from the roof top down. This wasn t possible because our chimney is pretty far off the roof and no safe place to place a ladder. They were thorough, neat and provided an explanation of what and why they were doing what they were doing. I personally like the idea that the owners are the ones doing the chimney cleaning. They were not the highest or the lowest quote. I chose them because: 1. Vinny responded quickly to my inquiry 2. I like the idea of the owner doing the job 3. Excellent communication and follow up While on-site they did NOT try to sell me anything we didn t need (e.g., chimney repairs). We had an excellent experience and will call them when it s time for our next cleaning."

Fireplace Cleaners questions, answered by experts

Limewash and whitewash are two techniques used to give brick a light, matte finish, but they differ in composition, application, and permanence. The best choice depends on your aesthetic goals and the specific surface.

Composition

  • Limewash: A natural and environmentally friendly option made from limestone, water, and sometimes pigments. It is breathable and soaks into porous surfaces like brick.

  • Whitewash: Traditionally made from lime, water, chalk, and binders, but a similar look can be achieved with watered-down white paint. It is paint-based and sits on top of the surface.

Appearance and Finish

  • Limewash: Provides a natural, textured appearance that allows the brick's character to show through. It offers a more traditional finish.

  • Whitewash: Creates a softer, more opaque finish, often used for a rustic or shabby-chic style.

Application and Permanence

  • Limewash: Is semi-permanent and can be removed, making it a good choice if you might want to change the look in the future. It requires more skill to apply and cannot be used on previously painted brick.

  • Whitewash: Is a more permanent solution. It is more forgiving to apply and can be used on painted brick. However, because it sits on the surface, it can trap moisture.

Ultimately, if you want a breathable, natural, and reversible finish for unpainted brick, limewash is a great option. If you need a more permanent, opaque coating that can be applied over painted surfaces, whitewash is the better choice. Whitewashing may also be more economical, costing approximately $1.40 to $4.20 per square foot.

Knowing who to hire to install your fireplace is important when it comes to having a safe place to burn a fire in your home. The best person to contact for installing fireplaces is a mason or general contractor who has a National Fireplace Institute (NFI) specialist certification. If you’re installing wood paneling, then it’s a good idea to also find a pro who is Wood Energy Technology Transfer (WETT)-certified. 

Both of these certifications show that your pro is well-equipped to install fireplaces and inspect your home for the utmost safety.

A fireplace can take anywhere from a few hours to several weeks to remodel, depending on the complexity of the project. For example, for a simple paint job, you’ll spend very little time touching up your fireplace, while larger remodels that involve replacing or repairing a fireplace can take up to 4 weeks.

Yes, it is essential to prime or seal a brick fireplace before painting. Brick is a porous and highly absorbent material, so without a primer, paint can seep into the surface, resulting in uneven coverage and allowing the natural brick color to show through. To avoid this, apply one or two coats of a masonry primer. The primer will seal the brick and provide a smooth, uniform layer for the paint to adhere to. Ensure the primer is completely dry before applying the topcoat of paint.

Regular HVAC filter changes, deep cleaning, and air quality monitoring help maintain a healthy environment.
