"Al was fantastic! He clearly explained that my fireplace was shutting off as a safety feature due to low oxygen levels. He also reassembled the logs in the firebox and showed me the proper way to start and stop the fireplace. Highly recommend his service!"

"From the first time Derek came to our house to look at our possible fireplace renovation to today, when Dave and Dillon left, I can't say enough about how wonderful Arch Masonry Restoration is. The craftsmanship is spectacular and we love the finished product. Derek and his team gave us great ideas and suggestions to make the most of our one of a kind fireplace. The project was on time and on budget. I highly recommend Derek and his team!!!"

"I hired North American chimney and gutter to clean a wood-burning stove that vented through a brick chimney I knew I had some brick work that needed to be done they did the work the same day and the price was very reasonable the technicians we're very knowledgeable and explained everything to me where I could understand the work was done they would meet and cleaned up after themselves you would have never known they were there with the exception of I had a nice clean wood stove and my chimney was as good as new I would definitely recommend this company to anyone who needs a cleaning of a fireplace wood stove or any repair"

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

While hardwoods are the best woods to burn, a few types of woods should be avoided when burning. Wood that has not had time to season, or “green wood,” should be avoided. The extra water in the wood makes it smoke horribly, which is not a quality you want. Additionally, it’s best to avoid any wood that is manufactured or has been treated, including coated or sealed wood, painted wood, or pressure-treated wood. These woods have chemicals that will be released into your air when burned and can cause health problems.

Most repairs take 2-6 hours, but extensive fixes or part replacements may require additional time.

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.

Wood is classified as either hardwood or softwood. For firewood, hardwoods are generally the best choice as they tend to burn longer, hotter, and produce less smoke than softwoods. Recommended hardwoods include oak, hickory, maple, cherry, ash, beech, birch, elm, and walnut. Oak is a particularly good option as it's widely available, slow-burning, and doesn't produce much smoke or sparks. Some woods, like oak, hickory, and cherry, also emit a pleasant scent. It is best to avoid softwoods such as eucalyptus, poplar, and willow, as they create a lot of smoke and have a high moisture content that makes them difficult to light and burn efficiently.

The time it takes for creosote to build up in a chimney can vary depending on how often you use your fireplace and the wood you burn. Creosote can start accumulating after just a few fires, especially if you burn unseasoned wood or allow fires to smolder. Regularly using the fireplace without proper maintenance can lead to significant creosote buildup within a few months. To prevent hazardous buildup, have your chimney inspected and cleaned at least once a year.
