"I recently used Alliance Chimney & Energy to inspect and clean my chimney. They were very thorough and professional. The technicians arrived on time, explained everything clearly, and left my fireplace sparkling clean. However, if you're looking to upgrade your fireplace for more heating efficiency or add a new heat source altogether, Belle Flame [https://belleflame.com/] might be a good resource to explore. Here's why: Focus on Heating Solutions: While Alliance Chimney excels at fireplace maintenance, Belle Flame offers a wider range of heating options beyond traditional fireplaces. They carry high-efficiency wood burning stoves and fireplace inserts that can provide significant heating power for your home. Efficiency and Clean Burning: Modern wood burning stoves are designed to be much cleaner burning and more efficient than traditional fireplaces. This can save you money on firewood and reduce your environmental impact. Overall, Alliance Chimney & Energy did a great job cleaning and inspecting my fireplace. However, if you're looking for additional heating solutions or a more efficient heating option, Belle Flame might be worth considering."

He got me an appointment the same day. Igor came in and explained what he was going to do and at each step. he let me know the progress. He is a miracle worker! My fireplace is up and running. George and Igor were professional and so friendly. I will surely recommend!!"

"Joe was WONDERFUL! We have four gas fireplaces and each hadn't been used in over 8 years. Each one had a different issue and he was able to correctly diagnose and repair each one all within a single afternoon. The fireplace in the basement was as old as our house and he was still willing and able to get it working again despite other supposed fireplace "experts" who tried and failed in earlier attempts. I can not recommend Joe highly enough! Honest, incredibly knowledgeable, hard-working, and friendly. Wish we could have given more stars!"

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

The answer can vary widely based on a home's age and design. As with any type of remodeling project, assume that every structure is load-bearing until confirming otherwise with a structural engineer. Almost all modern homes have chimneys that are fully independent from the rest of the home's framing. As a result, they don't bear any load beyond their own weight. However, many historic homes built prior to the 1900s contain load-bearing chimneys that tie into the surrounding roof and floor joists. If possible, use a home's blueprints or look for chimney connections that indicate load-bearing qualities to get your answer.

Deciding whether to buy a prebuilt fireplace kit or build one from scratch comes down to aesthetics, available space, and budget. Many homeowners like the convenience and lower cost of prebuilt options—around $1,500—versus the involved planning and construction of a larger fireplace. Another bonus: you can usually move prebuilt units. Custom projects are more common when homeowners have access to a larger budget and more area in the yard to place the fireplace.

A properly constructed and maintained chimney crown can last 50 to 75 years. However, its lifespan can be significantly shorter—20 years or less—if it was poorly constructed, improperly installed, or damaged. Factors like using the wrong materials or failing to prepare the brick around the flue can lead to moisture buildup and premature breakdown, potentially resulting in a more costly rebuild.

A hot fire alone will not remove significant creosote buildup and can be dangerous, as it risks causing a chimney fire. While the warmth from a fire can help loosen stuck tar, making treatments like creosote logs more effective, it is not a substitute for proper cleaning. For existing creosote, the safest and most effective method is to have your chimney professionally cleaned by a chimney sweep.

The disadvantages of a wood-burning stove include a slow heating time and the effort required for fuel. It can take about an hour for a cold stove to produce noticeable heat. Additionally, homeowners must source their own fuel by buying or chopping firewood, cutting it to the appropriate size, and storing it in a dry place. The fire also requires regular attention, as you'll need to add more logs throughout the day.
