"I highly recommend Alfa Builders & Remodeling! Moe did a phenomenal job renovating my home and completed the project within the promised timeframe. He remodeled both bathrooms, installed new countertops and walls, renovated the kitchen with beautiful countertops and cabinets, and installed new flooring throughout the entire house. What impressed me most was Moe's professionalism, positive attitude, and exceptional attention to detail. He takes pride in his work, and it truly shows in the finished product. The quality of the craftsmanship exceeded my expectations, and the entire renovation process was smooth from start to finish. If you're looking for someone who is reliable, skilled, and committed to delivering high-quality results, I would not hesitate to recommend Moe and Alfa Builders & Remodeling."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

In addition to flashing, a roof cricket can help divert water around your chimney so that it drains properly off your roof. It’s shaped like a double triangle and is installed behind the chimney so that falling water spills evenly down each side. This helps prevent water from accumulating behind your chimney, which can increase water damage and the risk of leaks. 

The International Building Code (IBC) requires cricket installation if a chimney built after 2012 measures over 30 inches in width. Chimneys constructed before that date are typically grandfathered in and aren’t required to have crickets installed.

Cracks in the chimney can be very serious, depending on their location and size. Even small cracks can become serious over time if left unrepaired. Cracks allow heat and moisture to deteriorate your chimney and harmful carbon monoxide gas to seep into your home. Small cracks can often be caulked, while large cracked sections may require full replacement.

Minor cleaning and maintenance are DIY-friendly, but professionals should handle structural or electrical repairs.

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.

Because of the potential danger associated with incorrectly capping the gas line that serves the gas fireplace, many people will choose to hire a professional to do the work. Some homeowners may choose to hire a pro to only handle the gas line for them. They then may attempt to remove the actual insert on their own, which is a challenging—but not impossible—DIY project.
