Can I remove a fireplace without removing the chimney?

• <div><p>Most of the time, you can remove the fireplace structure and leave the chimney in place. You just would need to seal it at the bottom where it connected the fireplace. You’d also need to cap it at the top. However, you probably should consult with a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/chimney-inspection/">local chimney inspection specialist</a> to determine whether the structural integrity of the chimney will allow it to remain safely in place without the support of the fireplace.</p></div>

What other projects should I have done with leaf removal?

• <div><p>Whether you hire leaf removal done during the spring or fall or both, it’s often a good time to have the leaf removal company tackle other projects if they offer other lawn services. Other projects to bundle with leaf removal include:</p><ul><li><p>Junk removal: $60–$600</p></li><li><p>Mowing: $50–$200</p></li><li><p>Weeding: $70–$150</p></li><li><p>Mulching: $75 per cubic yard</p></li><li><p>Hedge and tree pruning: $75–850</p></li><li><p>Lawn aeration: $0.10–$0.35 per square foot</p></li><li><p>Garden cleanup: $45–$75 per hour</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Can you remove a fireplace yourself?

• <div><p>You shouldn’t <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/can-we-tear-down-fireplace-inside-house-without-having-remove-chimney-roof.htm">remove a fireplace yourself</a>. Before beginning this job, you’d need to know whether or not you have a load-bearing fireplace. To do that, you’d need help from a structural engineer. Plus, fireplace removals require permits and often involve working with gas lines or electricity, which can be dangerous. For all of these reasons, it’s best to hire a pro for this project.</p></div>

Q: Can tree roots break through concrete?

• <div><p>Tree roots don&rsquo;t necessarily break through concrete on their own, but they can certainly take advantage of existing cracks, even very small ones. As roots grow, they expand the cracks, making them larger and leading to serious and costly foundation damage. It&rsquo;s a good idea to have repairs on any <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/quarter-inch-crack-my-foundation-major-concern.htm">foundation cracks you&rsquo;re concerned about</a>. </p></div>

These guys are incredible! Reasonably priced, nice, and, most important, fantastic at what they do. They cut down a huge tree with ease (it was entertaining to watch!!), they were systematic, organized, and they cleaned up after themselves. I highly recommend Cross Island Tree Service!
