"James is top-notch in every single way. We contracted him to install a new stove pipe to our 30+ year old home. James later returned to install a stove we had bought from another party. We were so pleased with absolutely everything James did. James was patient with us, answering questions and giving suggestions to help us stay on our budget! Both times James was at our home, you could not tell any work had been done. He is very meticulous in his work and leaves no trace. We highly recommend Chambers Contracting!"

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

Common causes for a chimney crack are poor construction and improper sealing. As a chimney heats and cools, expansion and contraction can cause cracks to form. If a chimney isn't sealed, moisture can enter pores in the masonry and cause problems. A chimney without a proper foundation can start to lean, which may also result in cracks.

Gas fireplaces use either natural gas or propane—both of which will increase your energy expenses. On average, running a gas fireplace costs $400 to $640 per year; however, these costs can vary significantly depending on the fuel price in your area and the frequency of fireplace use. If you’re looking for a more energy-efficient option, consider switching to an electric fireplace.

You can burn wood with oak wilt, as heat from the fire destroys the fungus, and smoke won’t threaten healthy trees. However, wood of unknown origin should be burned during the dormant season—do not store wood in the warmer months for the winter season. If you harvest oak, let it dry in the sun before transporting it elsewhere.

Modern wood-burning stoves are very effective, reaching around 80% efficiency. That’s because models built after 1988 are designed to meet standards set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to operate more efficiently and produce less air pollution. If you have an older wood stove, it may not be as efficient.

It’s hard to calculate how long a chimney damper will last because its life span depends on various factors, namely how often you use your fireplace, how much debris gets into your chimney regularly, and what material your damper is made of. It’s best to schedule an annual chimney inspection so a pro can examine it and let you know if it’s time for a replacement.
