"Brandon cleaned both of my woodstoves/chimneys. He hadn't worked on one of them before (a Swedish stove) and took considerable time and effort before he found the right focus for disassembly. There turned out to be little soot buildup so after the initial delay the cleaning was done quickly and fairly easily. The second was much easier to clean but he was unable to reach the chimney top because of a bend in the chimney, so only half of the chimney got cleaned. The lack of space around the first made it sightly uncomfortable to work but Brandon did not complain. He cleaned out both stoves and vacuumed up before he left. I felt the cost of his work was moderate and really appreciated knowing that a chimney fire was no longer a scary prospect! Brandon did need help with some necessary missing tool items that I was able to provide. I believe he is capable and easy to be with so with his experience here he should meet most woodstove cleaning requirements. John Robins."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

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

Your state, city, or even homeowners insurance company may have requirements on how far the outdoor wood furnace should be from the house, so be sure to abide by those regulations. In general, you should install an outdoor wood furnace or boiler as few as 30 feet or as much as 500 feet from the house or any other building.

A properly constructed and maintained chimney crown can last 50 to 75 years. However, its lifespan can be significantly shorter—20 years or less—if it was poorly constructed, improperly installed, or damaged. Factors like using the wrong materials or failing to prepare the brick around the flue can lead to moisture buildup and premature breakdown, potentially resulting in a more costly rebuild.

A fireplace can increase a home's value by as much as 12%, with some reports indicating that homes with fireplaces list for around 13% more than the median sale price. Fireplaces are both functional and aesthetically pleasing, adding a charm that many homebuyers find desirable. The actual return on investment depends on the fireplace's size, type, and material.

However, a fireplace can detract from a property's value if it is unusable, not up to code, or in need of immediate repairs. The type of fireplace also matters; custom electric fireplaces and inserts can add value, while freestanding units that can be removed have less impact.

Regular fireplace servicing is vital for safety and efficiency. You must inspect and clean wood-burning fireplaces annually to remove creosote buildup and address potential issues. Gas fireplaces benefit from annual inspections to ensure proper functioning and safety. More frequent servicing may be necessary if you use your fireplace extensively or live in an area with harsh winters. Always consult a local professional to establish a suitable servicing schedule for your fireplace.
