"We had Abma come out to fix our AC unit this summer. They charged us over $400 to get it running. A week later the unit stopped working again. They came back out to look at it and said the unit needed to be replaced. Now, four months later, we get a $90 bill for the second visit. After talking to them, there was no compromise on the second charge. Horrible customer service."

I have been employed in the carpentry trades for 33 years. I started as a young man in my fathers construction business, Carl Haines Construction. We did contruction from varying from new homes to remodeling and renovations. Because of the rural area that we lived in we did outside work involving farms and the type of outbuildings and sheds that were needed. I moved my family to South Carolina and I established my business there working on various beach homes. We did alot of fine woodwork on stairs and railings along with all the other types of construction mentioned. I did work that was featured in the "Southern Living" Magazine. I am pleased to be back in Pennsylvania again serving the area I and my wife grew up in. I currently employ 2 other carpenters and have at my disposal parttime help for larger jobs. I do use some sub contractors for such Items as electrical, heating and cooling, and crane services which must be hired to meet various building codes. My billing requirements are that materials be paid upfront, with labor being paid in weekly or bi-weekly payments with final payment upon completion of the work . Terms to be decided at the beginning of the work.

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

You should get your chimney cleaned around once per year, but you might want to opt for bi-annual cleanings if you use your fireplace often. Remember, your boiler likely vents into your chimney as well, so cleaning is required even if you don’t use your fireplace. It’s a good idea to clean your chimney during the summer so that it’s ready to use when you want a worry-free cozy fire on that first crisp autumn night of the season.

Gas fireplaces usually last an average of 20 years, so anywhere from 15 to 25 years is standard in terms of lifespan. If your fireplace is 15 years or older, it might be a good idea to call a fireplace repair technician to inspect the unit and make any necessary repairs. Preemptive repairs will go a long way in extending the fireplace’s lifespan. You could get 30 or more years out of your gas fireplace if you keep up with maintenance and repairs.

The short answer is yes, but the longer answer is more complex. Unless the fireplace is ventless by design, you’ll need some type of exhaust pipe system to safely send fumes and other harmful byproducts out of the house. Even then, ventless fireplaces are not always permitted because they do keep the byproducts inside of your house. Ventless fireplaces are safest when installed in spaces that are themselves well-ventilated, like large rooms with lots of windows.

Your chimney comes with dampers, which are similar to air vents. Dampers are metal plates that allow hot air and smoke to flow from the fireplace up your chimney and out of your home. When you close the damper, it prevents cool air from getting into your home. This is why you’ll want to check to make sure your damper is open before starting your fireplace and you want to ensure it’s closed after the fire goes out. You can open and close them via an external knob, pull chain, or lever. 

Sap, despite its stickiness, is primarily made of water and is responsible for wood being “green” when it’s first cut. Green wood doesn’t burn very easily and will snap and crackle a lot, not ideal for a fire pit or fireplace. That’s why it’s best to let fresh, sap-filled wood season or dry out for at least a season before you start burning.
