"Bradley and Sherry actually got here early! They explained what they were going to do, came in and got it done. Afterward Bradley inspected the chimney told me everything looked good. I got the inspection certification in with my receipt. And when they were through you couldnâ t even tell they were here. Everything was clean and tidy. Bradley also told me he could assist if I ever decided to convert the wood fireplace to gas! Good people! And I hear it is good luck to shake hands with a chimney sweep, so thereâ s that too!"

"Fast and friendly service. I needed my deck repaired, and they did a beautiful job. Mr. Lavalle pressure washed my home exterior and put in new outside lighting, and trimmed the bushes in front of my house. I'm having more work done in August, and E R Chimney Sweeps will be doing that, too. Not only does my deck look beautiful, but I was charged a very low price."

"I'm from Ohio,and I hired your services for my daughter and son-in-law. She seemed to be very pleased with the cleaning service. The individual did say their fireplace was in desperate need of cleaning. I 'm so glad I went on line to Morristown Chamber of Commerce and found your company. I will rest easier because I know my grandchildren will be safe. Thank you so much, Mrs. Pat Ciekanski"

"Derrick was so professional and so knowledgeable about installing our wood stove into our coal fireplace. We had been given a quote from a competitor several months prior that was $2500.00 more. Also, I found out that the way they would have installed it would have created serious problems in the future. Great company!!!! Thanks for installing our wood stove. It is working great!!!! Derricks Chimney Service is the only company I will use in the future or recommend."

Fireplaces FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, a chimney cap is an excellent idea for several reasons. It prevents debris, rain, or snow from entering your chimney, which can cause moisture damage or blockages. A cap with a mesh screen also keeps animals like birds, squirrels, and bats from nesting in your chimney—or worse, getting into your abode. Additionally, chimney caps help prevent downdrafts, which can push smoke and harmful gases back into your home. Lastly, by installing a chimney cap, you will improve safety and enhance the overall efficiency of your fireplace.

In short, yes, gas fireplaces create fewer pollutants and are considered more environmentally friendly than traditional ones. In general, natural gas fireplaces release only half to two-thirds as much CO2 per unit of heat (BTU) as burning wood. Plus, gas fireplaces emit fewer harmful particles and air pollutants. They can also be about three times as efficient as wood in terms of heating your home, resulting in a much higher level of their energy converting into heat.

Homeowners insurance may cover chimney leaks, repairs, or replacement, but coverage depends on the cause of the damage. If the chimney is damaged by a sudden, covered peril like a lightning strike, storm, hail, fallen tree, or an unexpected fire, your policy is likely to cover the costs. However, insurance generally does not cover damage resulting from normal wear and tear, old age, or a lack of proper maintenance, such as failing to perform regular cleanings and inspections. If a fire or other damage is caused by a known issue you didn't address, the claim may be denied. Additionally, some policies may have specific exclusions for events like high winds or earthquakes.

The length of time it takes to repoint your chimney depends on its design and the extent of damage, but generally, the process takes a couple of days. You can expect just one to two days for a small job or up to four days for a larger chimney or more complex project.

The short answer is yes, as hearths need to extend a certain distance out from the fire. This is usually around at least a foot in front but is often more, closer to two feet even. There is another distance to consider, which is the distance beyond the opening of the fireplace. Each municipality will have different code requirements.
