"Anthony serviced my gas fireplace in October. Recently I had some concerns about how the fireplace was performing. I called Anthony and he made the time in his schedule to come to assess the issue. He checked his previous work and explained that what was happening is common in vent free gas fireplaces. He is an honest and hardworking young man who is striving to build his company. He is doing all the right things to make that happen."

"Technician was on time, polite, professional and quoted me a reasonable price, so I didn’t schedule any more estimates. He did a good job, even going farther than agreed upon, by sealing up the top of the chimney to prevent further weathering. And all this while braving my steep roof slope! Admin folks were great too, with frequent communication, politely advising me of the status, and apologizing when they had to reschedule one time."

"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."

"We have a brick chimney at our recently bought house that needed a chimney inspection. The previous owners put on a new roof and we were concerned about leaking. Vinny was very professional and checked everything thoroughly. He said all looked good and he would checked it again on the spring. I highly suggest him! Quick response time, courteous and very professional."

"The project was very successful. Felgemacher listened to our needs and we developed a joint plan for staging the project. The work was professionally done in a timely manner. When we found a small gas leak in one of the fireplaces that was caused by poor assembly at the fireplace factory, they quickly found the source and corrected it. We are pleased with the results."

"This one went ok. The people were very knowledgeable and the package came when it came. It took us a little while to get it set up. They said that we would get two months free trial but we noticed that at the end of the first month they charged us. They sent out the package, you set it up yourself and then you call them to activate it. We got a second smoke alarm as a part of the deal and they said it would work as long as it was within 200 feet from the house. We discovered that the smoke alarm didn’t work and so we rang them to see if we could swap it for a carbon monoxide detector but they said we only had 30 days to swap it out but the 30 days had passed but because we didn’t install it for about two weeks and they’d given us two month instead of 30 days we thought that we would be able to swap it out because we tried quite hard to make the alarm work and we moved it to different places in the barn. So if I have any criticism that would be the criticism. I would tell someone in the future to be careful about the 60 and 90 days and try to get it in writing and to check when the first deposit will be taken from your account."

Fireplace Cleaners FAQs, 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.

Costs depend on material type, labor, chimney requirements, and structural reinforcements.

Hard materials like glass, metal, and hardwood floors, washable fabrics, and undamaged electrical appliances can often be salvaged after a fire, although it depends on the extent of the damage. For washable fabrics, make sure to use a phosphate mix during the washing process to extract the smoke smell. There are a few things you should throw away after a fire, like canned foods and cosmetics, even if they don’t look like they’re damaged.

You can turn a red brick white through a process called whitewashing. Whitewash isn’t a stain but rather is made from water and white latex paint. Adding more water to the mix will make the solution look lighter when applied, and adding more paint will make it look more white.

If you already have the tools, like a miter saw, a stud finder, and a nail gun or hammer, installing shiplap costs $500 to $1,000 for supplies. You’ll also spend $200 to $2,200 for the cost of an electric fireplace if you decide to add one into your setup.

You can also hire a carpenter for $35 to $100 per hour, plus the cost of materials, to install shiplap around your fireplace. If you need help installing a fireplace before adding the shiplap, labor can cost $225 to $2,180 for fireplace installation costs.
