"Sta-Built was the only company of the four contacted that followed through with a bid. They have great references. Ryan helped with the design. We did not think to include lighting and it was an excellent suggestion and decision. Hector and his crew showed up as scheduled and finished the job in two days. Hector assisted in making the right paver and color choices. We couldn't be happier with the end result. We will definitely hire again!"

"The project included a purchase of a new fireplace and a remodel of the mantel and fireplace surround.  I contracted with Jake of Scatter Creek Construction earlier in the year for a roofing repair/remodel and was highly satisfied with the project. This project required three phases. First the removal of the old mantel and surround as well as the preparation for removal of the old fireplace.  The second phase was the installation of the new fireplace.  The third was remodel of the fireplace wall including a mantel, tile surround, and box insert for the multimedia center.    Scatter Creek was contracted for phase 1 and 3.  A local fireplace retailer handled phase 2.  Jake and I met to review the conceptual design and plan the work.  He explained the work breakdown structure, sequence of events, and the expected time frames to complete the different work activities.   The primary materials needed were to select the type of tile for the fireplace surround and the wood type and design for the mantel shelf.  I did most of my research on the web, went to local home improvement stores to view the tiles and mantels we had in mind, and sent pictures and web links to Jake for him to provide the bid. He estimated that the project work would take less than a week to complete. Jake was hard to get hold of and, when I questioned if he was interested in the project, he finally got back to me. Because of the delay in getting the bid finalized we missed an opportunity for the fireplace installer consequently delaying the project for 25 days.  I removed all the furnishings in the room except for the couch and love seat, which Jake offered to move.  When Jake arrived for the room prep he was not equipped to move the furniture but covered it instead.  My wife fretted over the furniture for the duration of the project. Jake was responsible for the fireplace removal prior to the fireplace installation.  When the fireplace installer arrived the fireplace hadn't been removed.  Fortunately the fireplace retailer worked with us and convinced his installer to remove the old unit for an additional price.  Jake offered an apology and covered the costs but did not provide a good reason for the mix up.  The wall construction and tiling was dirty work and although Jake cleaned up some at the end of each day there was still a considerable amount of dust throughout the house.  At one point I had to inform Jake that the dirt left on the brand new fireplace during the tile and grout work left me pretty frustrated with the process.  The job also took three weeks to complete which didn't seem unreasonable considering the work performed but definitely was disappointing for my wife who felt she was promised one week to complete. At the conclusion of the project the outcome came out just as I had visualized and what Jake had convinced me he could do in his proposal.  I thought the pricing was fair, the craftsmanship was superior, and we are enjoying our remodeled living space.   Although the outcome was a success, the process had it's flaws with miscommunications, an over promise and under delivery on completion date, and at times the poor condition of the area of the house being worked on."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can close off a fireplace both temporarily and permanently with extremely wide price ranges. Temporary solutions involve fireplace plugs that can be inflated to block air and deflated to open the fireplace, covers, and boards. Permanent methods of shutting off fireplaces usually involve bricking up the fireplace or covering it with drywall. No matter the method, it’s probably best to hire a professional.

The best style of chimney cap for a brick chimney is one that fits tightly around the brick top of the chimney. The cap should have a screen to fully enclose it to keep animals out. The best materials include stainless steel, copper, or aluminum that fit tightly or are custom fabricated for a perfect fit on your chimney.

When your fireplace is not in use for longer periods of time, such as over the summer, you can keep smells at bay by spraying either a commercial fireplace deodorizing product or a blend of one part distilled white vinegar to one part water around the walls of the fireplace. 

Or, you can place a container of charcoal inside the fireplace to absorb odors. Just be sure to remove it before it’s time to start using the fireplace again.

If there’s a draft within your fireplace, it can lead to a weakening of its flame. And when the fire burns the wood, it won’t burn effectively, resulting in a build up of soot and smoke. If you notice this happening, you’ll want to inspect the glass to see where the draft is getting in. You can also hire a fireplace repair pro to do the work for you.

While it is possible to clean your own chimney and fireplace with the appropriate brushes and safety gear, hiring a professional is often recommended. A professional ensures thorough creosote removal and compliance with safety standards. They can also safely access high or hidden areas that may be difficult for a homeowner to reach, providing comprehensive assurance that the job is completed correctly and safely.
