"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."

"It's a pretty decent system, I think. They send you the pieces and you install them yourself, which is pretty easy. The only real problem I have is that one sensor is too far away from the panel...or there's some interference, and they haven't been able to fix that. It's an interior door, so it's not the end of the world, just a little annoying. Their customer service is pretty good though. Nice, smart customer service people on the other end, very polite and helpful."

"We asked for bids from three area companies.  Dan from VanDusen provided us with the bid that best fit our budget for the work that was to be performed.  Our estimate was given 8/20/14 but the work was not scheduled until January.  Dan accompanied the crew at the start of work and introduced me to the foreman, Zack.  The crew faced horrible conditions with bitter cold winds that came relentlessly out of the west.  Everyone remained positive and Zack did a terrific job of keeping me informed of the progress.  The work went into a second day and the part of the roof that was not covered had plastic tarps in place to cover.  It snowed that night but no time was lost because of the tarps.  The job was finished the second day and photos were made available to see exactly what had been done.  Two members came back in the spring to inspect the roof and pick up dropped nails with magnets once the snow melted.
     I had real misgivings about allowing this work to be done in the middle of winter.  Had he been living, my father would have said to wait for warm weather so the shingles could adhere to one another and the built in adhesive could do its job.  In the first days after work was completed, some of the shingles did have a ruffled appearance.  But with the warmer days of spring, those shingles lay flat and you would never guess the roof was put on in winter.  Dan and Zack assured me that roofing has become a year around business and I have come to believe them.
     We had a stubborn leak that previously occurred when wind was driven horizontally.  Sometimes that leak occurred only once or twice a year.  Zack acknowledged the issue and made sure that area was properly flashed.  He promised to fix the problem, and to date, it has not recurred.
     Following the job completion we did have one area of ice buildup.  It turns out that it was caused by improper venting at the soffit in the way the original roof was designed.  Despite this, Zack and Dan came out and took care of it for us.  It is this kind of customer service that caused us to feel confident in having VanDusen roof a second house for us.  It will be reviewed separately.  We expect that we will hire VanDusen for gutter replacement and proper venting of the one problem area.
     I cannot say enough positive words about the customer service provided by Zack and Dan.  When you cannot (or will not in January) climb up on your own roof, they really made you feel connected to the project and informed about the progress.  In addition, everyone in the office was pleasant and easy to work with.

Fireplaces FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, if your gas fireplace has a flue, you typically need to open it when using the fireplace. Although gas fireplaces don’t produce the type of smoke and soot that wood-burning ones do, they still release combustion gasses like carbon monoxide. Opening the flue ensures these gasses safely exit your home through the chimney. Not all gas fireplaces need a chimney, however. Always check the manufacturer’s instructions for your specific gas fireplace model, as some newer models may have different ventilation requirements.

The best time to clean your chimney is before you need to use it, which for most people is during the spring, summer, or early fall. Spring and summer are often ideal because the chimney is not in use, and chimney sweeps can access the roof more easily without snow and ice. The warmer months are also better for making any necessary repairs. To avoid the rush when chimney sweeps get booked up in early spring and late fall, scheduling your cleaning for the summer can be a safe bet. It's recommended to book your annual chimney sweep during these warmer months to maintain a yearly schedule.

The cost difference between a gas fireplace and a wood-burning fireplace depends on the type of wood-burning fireplace installed. The cost to install a gas fireplace tends to be cheaper than the cost to install a brick wood-burning fireplace. Installing a gas fireplace costs about $3,600 on average, whereas the cost to build a masonry wood-burning fireplace can go up to $30,000. The cost to install a wood-burning fireplace insert or stove can cost from $700 to $6,500, about the same as a gas fireplace on average.

Although no heating appliance can be entirely risk-free, a fireplace insert is considered a safer alternative to a traditional open fireplace, thanks to their enclosed design. With a sealed combustion chamber, a fireplace insert effectively reduces the risk of sparks and embers escaping into the room, minimizing the chance of an accidental fire.

Additionally, an insert comes equipped with various safety features, such as tempered glass doors that create a barrier between the flames and the surrounding space. This enhances both safety and energy efficiency by preventing heat loss. As an added bonus, many inserts are designed to meet strict safety standards that ensure proper ventilation and combustion.

Installing a fireplace insert can get you more heat without replacing the whole fireplace and chimney. Other benefits include their convenience (you can turn them on and off with a simple flip of a switch), safety (most models have built-in sensors that will turn off the fireplace if they detect carbon monoxide), a modern aesthetic, and superior energy efficiency.
