"We have used Wammoth Services for several years now and always had a wonderful experience. I have personally had dealings with Bill, Stacy and Ryan, each one of this is professional, honest, dependable and most of all they appreciate their customers. I had a moment recently where I thought I was going to be disappointed in a "warranty" issue but was I ever wrong. After misunderstanding and email from Stacy she followed up with a phone call to clarify their policy and make sure that I knew exactly what she meant. Bill was here within a few days and was early, respectful, efficient and very professional. The faulty part was replaced and our fireplace is fully operational and our faith in small business restored. We will continue to use Wammoth and only Wammoth for all our fireplace needs. Highly recommend."

"Wow! Amazing service. I must've called 8 different places in a panic trying to get the brick mounts which hold the mantel removed from my old fireplace so the surface could be prepped for a new TV. Seemed like an easy task (I thought), but it was a little more meticulous than I thought. I called this team and they arrived same day! Incredible customer service and expertise. Not only did they return the day after providing an estimate and remove the brick mounts, they actually re-fabricated the brick to make the holes disappear! This team knows their stuff!! I was so impressed that in the Spring I'd like them to come and do some masonry work for me. Highly recommend. They really are committed to doing good work and meeting the needs of their customer Special thanks for seeing to my issue before my TV install. We are ready for the Superbowl!!"

"The experience was wonderful; Juan, the lead technician, explained the entire job before carrying it out, and we were very pleased with the result. I also received excellent service at the office. I would always recommend a Shamrock fireplace."

"I contracted Oscar to stain my deck that he had already power washed. Sergio did the actual job and he was amazing. The deck required several coats of stain because the 28 year old wood just kept soaking it up. Sergio wasn't satisfied until I was happy with the results. He kept asking me if it looked okay and I would say that I thought it needed another coat. Never did he complain or display an attitude, he just applied another coat of stain. The end result is a deck that looks absolutely perfect. By the way, the temperature was 95, felt like 107. The next day Sergio returned to paint my 8 sets of shutters. He removed the shutters, painted them, and reinstalled them. Another hot day, no complaints, no attitude. Completely professional. I might also add that both Oscar and Sergio speak English as well as they do Spanish so communication was never an issue. I would highly recommend King General Contracting and I would not hesitate to hire them again."

Start with a professional inspection. If damage is limited to a few bricks or the crown, a targeted repair helps keep costs and disruption to a minimum. Severe leaning, widespread mortar failure, or major fire damage usually signals it’s time for a complete teardown and rebuild. Your contractor will outline both price tags, but remember that rebuilding a failing stack is often cheaper than repeated patch jobs and the water leaks or fire hazards they allow.
Cracks provide water with an easy path into the masonry, weakening the bricks and mortar and increasing the risk of collapse or fire. Gaps can also let hot gases and sparks escape into attic spaces. Call a chimney pro as soon as you see cracking so they can seal small joints or recommend a larger rebuild before minor damage turns into a costly emergency.
Smoke rolling back into the room often indicates a blocked flue, a broken damper, or a drafting issue. Have a sweep inspect the damper, flue liner, and any obstructions right away. Most fixes involve clearing debris, repairing the liner, or adjusting the damper so the fireplace pulls air correctly. Don’t light another fire until a professional pinpoints the cause and confirms your system is venting safely.
Most policies cover chimney repairs caused by a sudden, covered event, such as lightning, a fallen tree, or a house fire. They won’t cover damage that stems from neglected maintenance or everyday wear. Review your policy or contact your agent before scheduling work to determine what documentation your insurer requires and what costs you will be responsible for.
Component life spans vary. Clay tile or cast-in-place liners last close to 50 years, while stainless-steel liners last 15 to 20 years. Mortar requires attention every 25 to 30 years, while crowns last 50 to 75 years. Use these numbers as a maintenance roadmap: schedule regular inspections, budget for future upgrades, and replace parts before age-related cracks develop into more significant problems.
