"Overall I would recommend ACT air duct cleaning. I live in a 1913 colonial and I doubt this has ever been done in this house. I did some research on the EPAs website on this service and read a lot about it beforehand. The team arrived on time and answered all of my questions before they got started. I was glad I educated myself a little bit beforehand so that I knew what to expect and what questions to ask. The process and tools ACT uses to do their job is interesting and seems very thorough. When reading their website I didn't understand that they were going to cut a hole in one of my air ducts. My husband would have had a fit if they'd done that, so I told them they would have to come up with a work around for that. They talked with Jared (owner) and then figured out a work around. The team was very polite and kept me informed of the process. I will say that there is some dust associated with this process. Meaning that you can get some "blowback" from some of the vents. They went around with a vacume and cleaned up any mess they found from "blowback". The team cleaned up very well and left my house as they found it. I have noticed a big difference with the decrease in dust in my house since this service has been performed. I'm glad I did this. I got the Angie's list deal on this service so I thought it was a really good deal.

"I have been using them for 3 years for multiple projects and would not go to somebody else. They also built a cabin in the woods. It was built 10 miles from the road so it was like carrying all the stuff up the path. They also did the garage and remodeling of the house, mostly kitchen and a little bit of plumbing work in the bathroom. I am still using them and I would be using them for the next thing that will be coming up too."

No, not all chimneys need a damper. However, most chimneys do, especially in newer homes. Most gas-burning fireplaces cannot function safely without a damper. Only some older wood-burning fireplaces can function safely without one. A chimney without a damper is essentially just an open hole in the roof of your home.
Most cleanings take 1-3 hours, but extensive soot buildup or liner damage may require additional time.
Most projects take 5-10 days, including foundation work, masonry, and finishing.
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.
In some aspects, yes, new wood stoves are better than old ones. For example, today’s EPA emission limits for wood-burning stoves are much lower than they were several decades ago. Stoves that meet these stricter standards produce less air pollution, reduce fire risks, and decrease your risk of inhaling harmful particles.
