Fireplace and Chimney Repair Quick Tips

"Clean your flue at least every couple of years. Occasional cleaning will clear the passage of restrictions and possible fire hazards. A professional chimney sweep can do this for you relatively inexpensively."

"Is your fire getting enough air? Fireplaces consume a large amount of air when in use. You may need to crack a window close to the fireplace to give it enough air to burn properly."

"Before putting your fireplace in use for the season, check for any loose or cracked bricks. If you have any, have them replaced by a chimney repair company before using your fireplace. Also check your damper for smooth operation and make sure it seals well when closed."

"Like having a fire but hate all of the mess. Consider having a chimney service install a gas log setup. They will come with ceramic logs which very closely replicate the effects of a real fire without all of the mess. It will give you a roaring fire in seconds anytime you want."
