"I purchased a 160 year old home 2.5 years ago. It has 3 fireplaces. Mid Valley just repaired the one in my living room and they did a fantastic job. The hearth needed to be replaced and they were able to save the old brick to use on the top so that it still looks original to the fireplace. They also lined the chimney with a new stainless steel flue and repaired the fire box. I put a fire in it on Saturday night and it was wonderful. I will definitely be hiring these guys to repair my other fireplace, as well as for general masonry work. I highly recommend their services."

"Were honest about determining our chimneys were clean and did not need swept ... Installed our chimney caps as requested and did some extra repair in the chimney tops for cash. Inspected both fireplaces and quoted some prices for repairing both, with most being new mortar or caulking on some deteriorated brick joints."

"I needed foundation repair, tuckpointing brick, and it was done in one day, plus I had a little work done in the basement. Very happy with the results, and the professional, personable staff, Scott and John, who did the job right. The cost was reasonable as well."

"Nice, polite, prompt, and clean-cut when they showed up. They did a good job of cleaning and inspecting. They were able to show the video of the entire inside of the chimney. Unfortunately for me, the prior owners wrecked beyond my budget to repair. I would have hired them to fix even though we do not typically use the fireplace except for special occasions. I really appreciated that they did not push hard to upsell their services."

"The crew knew exactly what had to be done. They were able to remove and reuse the existing siding, take down the existing chimney and rebuild it better and stronger than the original. The restoration was completed in a very timely and professional manner."

Chimney Repair questions, answered by experts

Yes, vinegar can break down the adhesive bond, effectively dissolving the glue from wood. It will be much easier to wipe away. Vinegar’s acidity, which helps to make it an effective all-purpose cleaner, can also aid in removing adhesive with less chance of damaging the wood and finish than more aggressive solvents. 

If you don’t want to purchase furniture sliders, there are several household items that can be used as makeshift sliders. Thick towels or blankets placed under furniture legs can reduce friction and make it easier to slide the furniture without causing damage to the floor. Additionally, plastic or paper plates can be placed under each leg for easy sliding. You can also cut up pieces of a cardboard box to slide beneath the legs of the furniture.

Whether the leather repair is worth it depends on the extent of the damage, the cost to repair, and the value of the leather item. If the leather is part of an item that’s very expensive to replace, then attempting to repair it may be worth it. Also, if the leather piece holds great sentimental value, it’s worth restoration or repair, if possible.

Yes, you can fill rotten wood with expanding foam. You may prefer using an expanding foam treatment instead of wood filler since the latter can take a long time to dry. It may also provide an easier solution when you’re dealing with smaller gaps. If you use expanding foam, allow it to cure for about 24 hours before you sand and prime it.

Yes, using samples and expertise to find the best materials.
