"This contractor is wonderful! Mr. Narine and his assistants were at my home within a week of when my husband contacted him. He installed the vent fan we wanted and was so professional and quick and neat cleaning up everything behind themselves. We could not have asked for anyone better!"

"After being left hung out to dry by the company I paid to deliver and install my appliances, Mike came to the rescue! He had my dishwasher and microwave installed and took away the old one! He explained everything he easily doing and was even open to going over other issues I have around my new home. I would definitely hire him again and I recommend him to anyone needing work done around the house!"

"We had a great experience working with Brian and I will definitely consider using him in future projects. We had a fairly complicated cabinet install in our basement. We wanted to put new cabinets next to a previously installed laundry sink. There were a lot of issues trying to work around - different depths, plumbing, a large pump etc. and Brian seemed to relish the challenge!"

Fire Pit Installation questions, answered by experts

Most installations take 1-3 days, depending on system complexity and building size.

First, it is crucial to check your local guidelines or building codes. You should typically have one smoke detector for every floor, bedroom, and kitchen. Another rule of thumb is to install one smoke detector for every 500 feet in a home. Reviewing manufacturing recommendations, especially for interconnected devices, is also a good idea to ensure proper connection and monitoring.

You should never block both the top and bottom of your chimney. Proper airflow is essential because the temperature inside the chimney will still fluctuate as your house warms and cools. Moisture can build up without ventilation, leading to dampness in your walls over time. Blocking the top prevents debris and animals from entering, but the chimney still needs air circulation to avoid condensation issues. Allowing the chimney to breathe maintains the health of your home and prevents long-term damage.

Yes, a chimney damper is necessary. It controls airflow in and out of your fireplace, helping to retain heat when closed and allowing smoke to escape when open. Without a damper, your home could lose warmth during cold months, leading to higher energy bills. It also helps prevent downdrafts and keeps animals or debris from entering the chimney. In short, it’s essential for efficiency and safety.

The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) says you can place smoke detectors on either the ceiling or the wall, depending on the setup of your room. Since smoke rises, the ceiling makes sense, but if you go with a wall mounting, the alarm should be installed high up—no less than 12 inches from the ceiling.
