"James is the best!! This is the first major project that my husband and I have undertaken and we were pretty nervous about it â until we met James. I got estimates from several companies before I found James and each one told me I would have to have different people do the tile, drywall and fireplace work. And then James came in and told me he could do it all . . . and he did!! The entire project only took 2 weeks start to finish and the disruption to our home was minimal, even though it snowed a few times and we had quite a bit of ice. My husband and I were impressed with Jamesâ professionalism, his technical skills and his amazing people skills. On more than one occasion, I questioned whether something would work out and James patiently explained how it was going to be the best option and reassured me that it would also look great, and it always did! I also want to mention the great â back officeâ support from Michelle Chambers, who was as awesome as her wonderful husband! I will be proudly recommending James Chambers to everyone I know!"

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

Some homes with wood-burning fireplaces don't have ash pits due to design choices, construction practices, or the age of the house. Many older abodes don't have them because ash pits weren't a standard feature when they were built. Additionally, in smaller homes or homes with less frequent fireplace use, builders might have opted to forgo an ash pit to reduce costs or simplify maintenance.

Yes, removing a chimney is a difficult and major undertaking. Chimneys often provide structural support to a home, so if it's a load-bearing structure, you'll need to take extra precautions to maintain your home's integrity. A project of this complexity typically requires a structural engineer, a masonry contractor, and a demolition crew. The removal process may involve taking the chimney out brick by brick from inside the walls. The cost for chimney removal can range from $2,000 to $10,000, depending on the job's complexity. Due to the difficulty and cost, some homeowners opt to remove the fireplace and seal the chimney at the top and bottom, sometimes also removing the visible exterior portion at the roofline.

Yes, it is possible to convert a wood-burning fireplace to gas. The average cost for this conversion is $3,000, with a typical range of $500 to $5,500. The project involves running a gas line, professionally cleaning the chimney, and installing gas logs.

Cost factors include the type of gas fireplace and whether a new gas line is needed. Installing a natural gas line can add $200 to $1,000 to the cost. Vented gas fireplaces are more expensive, averaging around $5,000, while ventless options are more cost-effective at about $1,500.

Most cleanings take 1-3 hours, but extensive soot buildup or liner damage may require additional time.

In some cases, you can use a fireplace once the insert has been removed. However, before burning a fire, you must have a professional inspect it and the chimney to make sure they're functioning properly and no damage has occurred from removing the insert. That’s because using a fireplace without an insert could create fire hazards due to issues with airflow and heat dispersion, depending on the fireplace design and material. A professional can advise on whether you should make certain repairs or modifications before using your fireplace as an open hearth.
