"Dayton Masonry did an awesome job on our home repairs. We were really blessed to find them. They were friendly, courteous, and timely. They cleaned up and put everything back in order before leaving. We really can do nothing but recommend Mr. Dayton and crew for doing a fantastic job for us. It was really appreciated."

"I telephoned and left a message asking him to call me about chimney sweeping.  I took about one day before Mr.  Austin contacted me but he immediately set an appointment for the day he called.  He arrived on time, assessed requirements and quoted a price that seemed reasonable.  He explained what he needed to do and then set right to work after moving a few items out of the way.  It took him about one hour to complete the job and remove a large  pile of cresote that he had swept from  the chimney.  He cleaned up thoroughly after completing his work and left everything in good order.  I can recommend him without reservation for chimney cleaning services.

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

Yes, there are regulations on using wood stoves, particularly concerning emissions and installation standards. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) sets emission limits for wood stoves to ensure they burn cleaner and more efficiently. Additionally, local building codes may have specific requirements for installation and venting, so it's essential to check with local authorities before installing or upgrading your stove.

Soapstone wood stoves hold onto heat the longest, which means you can burn less fuel and enjoy the warmth for longer. Additionally, catalytic wood stoves include a catalytic combustor that can reduce emissions and create a cleaner burn no matter what the stove is made of. Of course, the most efficient wood stoves also tend to be costlier up front—but they can still save you money in the long run.

A fireplace can take anywhere from a few hours to several weeks to remodel, depending on the complexity of the project. For example, for a simple paint job, you’ll spend very little time touching up your fireplace, while larger remodels that involve replacing or repairing a fireplace can take up to 4 weeks.

Not every type of flooring is well suited to a wood stove. However, ceramic or stone tiles are good choices since they are durable, heat-resistant, and easy to clean. Softer flooring options, like carpet, could be damaged by the heat produced by a wood stove—or even create a fire hazard.

You can close up a chimney instead of demolishing it. Homeowners often go this route because the cost of removing a chimney, especially a structurally important chimney, can be expensive.

Properly closing up a chimney involves closing and sealing the damper, installing a chimney cap damper, and sealing the fireplace opening with a door or bricks. The cost to seal and cap a chimney is around $500 to $650—significantly less than the average chimney removal cost.
