"Our chimney had a serious water leak into the fireplace, and none of the local chimney folks seemed to know how to deal with it. But Jeff came by, quickly diagnosed the problem, took apart the top of our chimney, and put it back together again. We've had several heavy rains since and ... no leaks! Jeff was responsible, friendly, and professional. He left the site clean of the debris, and with a chimney that looks better from the outside than it did before. We would definitely use him again for other masonry work."

"It turned out very well. It didn't take me long at all. I just had to figure out exactly what I wanted to put. Once I figured the best place to set for like the windows and doors, it was easy. There were no issues."
"We had Brick Solutions come out and give us an estimate on pouring an initial pad for our patio. Mr. Walls came out and was very professional and communicated every step of the process to us. He kept us fully involved in the process from start to finish. Because the work was exceptional and the price was the very competitive with the other contractors we decided to have Brick Solutions back out to finish out custom paver walk way from our house to the patio. While doing the work (at an exceptional level yet again) my wife begged me to have them finish an additional paver walk way to our pool. With Mr. Walls's extraordinary skill set, professionalism, and dedication to keep us 100% in the loop I decided to have him finish the job. Expecting it would be a few more weeks before he could come back out and finish, I was surprised when he was able to finish the entire project ahead of schedule. Many thanks to the fine folks at Brick Solutions Inc. They are awesome."
Completing gas log service boosts your property’s appeal by providing a reliable, low-maintenance heat source during harsh Blacksburg winters. A fully functional, code-compliant fireplace attracts buyers who value updated mechanical systems. Documented permits and inspections give buyers confidence in the safety of the installation. Address any known defects immediately, as malfunctioning units become mandatory disclosures that negatively impact your sale.

Confirm your fuel type first, as homes within city limits have natural gas while rural properties rely on propane. Traditional masonry fireplaces in older VA homes make excellent candidates for gas log service, provided the chimney is structurally sound and the firebox meets minimum clearance requirements. Unlined chimneys or pre-fabricated wood-burning fireplaces require professional inspection to ensure safe compatibility.
Helpful?
Address gas log service immediately if you smell gas, notice soot, or see a yellow or orange flame. These signs indicate dangerous carbon monoxide risks or gas leaks. Evacuate and call your utility emergency line for gas odors. Schedule non-urgent cosmetic repairs, remote control fixes, or routine annual cleaning during the warmer months before the Blacksburg heating season begins in October.
Helpful?
You can safely handle minor gas log service tasks like checking remote batteries, cleaning the glass with a fireplace-rated cleaner, or visually inspecting ceramic logs for cracks. Relight the pilot following the manufacturer’s instructions. Stop and call a certified specialist if the pilot fails to stay lit. Never touch the gas connections yourself, as state law requires a licensed contractor for those repairs in Blacksburg.
Helpful?
Local freeze-thaw cycles cause significant mortar damage, requiring chimney repairs before beginning gas log service. Older properties feature unlined or shared flues, which complicate venting and require proper liners. Routing gas lines through finished basements creates invasive wall penetrations. Crawl spaces offer easier access but expose pipes to freezing temperatures. Hire a local professional to assess your VA home's unique layout.
