"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

The average life span of a thermoelectric fan operating seasonally is two to three years. However, the life span of a wood stove fan depends on its quality, usage, and maintenance. Regular cleaning of the blades and ensuring the fan operates within its recommended temperature range can help prolong its life span.

The best style of chimney cap for a brick chimney is one that fits tightly around the brick top of the chimney. The cap should have a screen to fully enclose it to keep animals out. The best materials include stainless steel, copper, or aluminum that fit tightly or are custom fabricated for a perfect fit on your chimney.

Yes, you can put a freestanding one in a corner if you’re tight on space. Because pellet stoves don’t get as hot as other types of wood stoves, there only needs to be 3 inches of clearance from the wall on each side. Placing it in a corner should not impact the ventilation—you’ll still need to follow safety precautions by not installing too close to a window. Typically, it’s 4 feet from a window or 18 inches if the stove uses an external air source for combustion. Always check the owner’s manual for specific instructions.

Both vented and ventless gas fireplaces have pros and cons, and the best choice depends on your needs and preferences. A ventless fireplace may be a good option if you do not have a chimney, but you should check local regulations as they are banned in some areas, such as California. On the other hand, if anyone in your household has allergies, asthma, or other respiratory sensitivities, a vented fireplace is a better choice for health and air quality.

Chimney sweeps perform three levels of inspections:

  1. Level One: This is a basic annual inspection, often a visual inspection during cleaning, which is the most affordable.

  2. Level Two: This stage is ideal when selling or buying a home as it involves an inspection of the attic and roof, which is moderately priced.

  3. Level Three: This is a very thorough inspection that should take place after major storms or earthquakes, which is the most costly type of inspection.
