"Dunrite came promptly and repaired leaks in our roof around the chimney.  They also discovered major flaws in that section of the roof which was over the garage.   They did a major roofing job as well as repairing masonry and flashing work on the chimney as well as adding new plywood in the garage. Their attention to detail was evident when they went in search of new roofing shingles to match the existing shingles throughout the entire roof.  Staff was professional and efficient and did a great job in removing the debris.    We have used Dunrite over the years to clean our chimney as well as  installing a new glass fireplace which they did last year.   They continue to provide excellent service.

"Very thorough, informative, and cost-conscious. They called 20 minutes before they arrived and arrived on time. Checked out the fireplace and oil burner chimneys. Provided proposal on repairs and maintenance while also explaining in detail the reasons for the repairs/maintenance. Cost estimates were reasonable.

"Oscar and his crew not only repaired a crack in the fireplace but he found that previous workers from another company didn t connect the attic furnace to the chimney. And that the exhaust pipe for the hot water heater had rusted . So he and Alberto were able to repair everything with absolutely no mess."

"Greatest Techs for Chimney Services around!!!  About 4 years ago, I flagged them down from a neighbors home and they installed a Chimney cap for me, very honest, they advised me that my chimney lining would need attention in the near future.  They did not pressure me to up-sell other services, they installed my cap at a VERY fair price and went on their way.  Todays visit was at my request again, bad chimney issues, they were honest and replaced my entire chimney lining as I was about to have a complete blockage!  I was there as they opened up the assess... I am so lucky, the flu was almost 90% blocked!  These guys are real professionals and want to share with all how great they are!
They even fixed a loose piece of siding and removed tree branches from my roof ON THEIR OWN!!! I Didn't even ask, thats how detail oriented this team is!!!

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

One disadvantage of a wood furnace is that you need a constant supply of wood to run it. Even if you have a good amount of wood on your property (or have another way to get affordable wood), you’ll still need to chop it, store it, and re-fuel your furnace with it to keep your house heated. 

No. Pellet stoves are specifically designed to burn manufactured wood or biomass pellets. Attempting to burn other materials, such as regular firewood or paper products, can damage the stove, compromise its efficiency, and even pose safety hazards due to inconsistent combustion and increased emissions. It's crucial to follow manufacturer guidelines and only use pellets that are specifically recommended for your pellet stove model to ensure safe and optimal performance over its life span.

Yes, burning wood with Dutch elm disease is a safer way to dispose of it than, say, tossing it in with the rest of your yard waste, which could potentially allow it to spread to healthy trees. But it’s always a good idea to check with your local government to make sure you’re complying with any ordinances about removing diseased trees as well as burning brush piles.

Fireplaces can theoretically help you save on heating bills if you lower the temperature throughout the rest of your home and heat only a single room that you occupy using the fireplace. However, in most cases, homeowners won’t save any money on heating bills. Gas and electric fireplace inserts could actually lead to a spike in your respective energy bills if you use them frequently, and if you don’t keep up with chimney maintenance and repairs, your traditional masonry fireplace could actually be a source of heat loss in the winter.

A fireplace's lifespan varies significantly depending on its type, the quality of construction, the materials used, and how well it is maintained. On average, you can expect a fireplace to last between 10 and 30 years, with many homeowners experiencing major issues after about 20 years.

Here's a breakdown by type:

  • Gas Inserts: Typically last 10 to 25 years with proper maintenance.

  • Electric Fireplaces: Have a lifespan of up to 20 years.

  • Traditional Brick Fireplaces: Can last for centuries, but require ongoing maintenance and repairs, such as tuckpointing.
