"Eric called early Monday morning to let us know that his 9:00 appointment had just cancelled, and did we want to have the plate installed that day or instead of Wednesday? Of course, we said yes!
Eric and Josh showed up, and Eric carried in this (HEAVY) piece of steel and installed it within an hour. Our fire that night was absolutely beautiful. The colors against the black back wall are so much more vibrant, and we're going to take Eric's recommendation and paint the side walls with a flat black barbeque pit spray paint. This will be SO COOL.
These two are such a great team. Their friendliness, professionalism, punctuality, and all-around good work is such a pleasure to see. Eric's quirky sense of humor adds to the charm, but he realized he had met his match. It was a fun, fun morning.
I HIGHLY recommend this company.

"Mike was early which I liked a lot. He was professional and took great care with my fireplace and surroundings. He was knowledgeable about this 20 year old fireplace and gave some great advice on it. He was here for a little under an hour and in that time completely cleaned, serviced and made sure that it was working before departing I have already recommended Central Sweep and Mike to a family member who needs their fireplace looked at and I would easily recommend him to anyone else who needs fireplace service."
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.
