"They cleaned the chimney and we used the coupon successfully. Afterwards, I shined a flashlight up the chimney and could see and physically pull additional ash from the sides with a cloth in my hand. It was mostly clean, but a little attention to detail could have cleaned the lower end better. Also, they told us we have a safety issue with a crack in the floor. They took the fireplace apart on the spot, but didn't have the parts to fix it. The chimney sat unused for 3-4 weeks in winter as we waited for them to get the part. After that time and repeated calls with no scheduled install date in sight, we cancelled the repair and had them come back and put the fireplace back together."

"Moore added a beautiful deck and patio with stone fireplace to our home. From the initial consultation to the design to the construction and finishing process - the Moore team was excellent. The quality of materials, the quality of the workmanship and the quality of communication throughout the process was exceptional. I would highly recommend them for anyone considering the addition of a deck and/or patio. We talked with several different companies and Moore was the most impressive and offering the greatest value. They clearly stood out to be the best and they did not disappoint. The result is even better than we had hoped for. We could not be more satisfied with the people, process and resulting product. Moore is committed to doing a top quality job and to your full satisfaction. An excellent company and excellent team."

"In May 2018, Ashmaster's rebuilt the top of the fireplace chimney and installed a stainless steel flue liner for the wood stove insert. Work was done professionally, on time, and on budget. This year (May 2019), Ashmaster's inspected the work and they were just as courteous, friendly, and professional as before."

"Problems with the chimney tiles were identified during the chimney cleaning. They estimated the cost of the repairs and returned a few weeks later to fix the problems. I don't know enough about chimneys to comment on whether they did a good job, but it appears to be fixed and they offered a 2-year warranty on the work performed.
I was disappointed with the clean-up after the work. They unhooked a garden hose to get water and did not re-attach it. There was an attempt to clean the area in front of the fireplace, but it wasn't thorough. Both minor offenses, but worth noting.

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.
