Best fireplace pros near Dayton, VA

Q: Can you use Windex to clean gas fireplace glass?

• <div><p>You should not use Windex or any other ammonia-based glass cleaners when cleaning the glass doors or glass front panel of a gas fireplace. Instead, remove the glass and lay it on a soft surface, like a drop cloth or towel. Then clean it using a specialty fireplace glass cleaner purchased at a hardware store or online. If the glass is relatively clean, you can get away with a vinegar and water solution, but tougher stains will require a specialized cleaner. </p></div>

Q: How much work does it take to learn how to remove a fireplace?

• <div><p>Removing and demolishing a fireplace is extremely labor intensive work that also takes a long time. You need to use brute strength to break apart the brick and masonry, and carry the debris to a dumpster. Depending on the size of the structure, you may need multiple days to fully remove it. After removal, you need to determine how you will repair the wall that held the fireplace, which can also be quite time consuming and challenging.</p></div>

Q: Can you burn wood with Dutch elm disease?

• <div><p>Yes, burning wood with Dutch elm disease is a safer way to dispose of it than, say, tossing it in with the rest of your yard waste, which could potentially allow it to spread to healthy trees. But it&rsquo;s always a good idea to check with your local government to make sure you&rsquo;re complying with any ordinances about removing diseased trees as well as burning brush piles.</p></div>

Q: Can I repair a pre-fabricated fireplace myself?

• <div><p>Minor cleaning and maintenance are DIY-friendly, but professionals should handle structural or electrical repairs.</p></div>

Q: Do creosote logs work?

• <div><p>Creosote logs can help to reduce new creosote build-up by about 60%, however they don&rsquo;t replace regular cleaning. While creosote logs can help to prevent build-up of creosote in your chimney, they won&rsquo;t remove build-up that&rsquo;s already there. Creosote logs can be used as a preventative measure in conjunction with regular cleaning, but you will still need to clean your chimney about once per year.</p></div>
