"We called Dunrite initially for a cleaning (both oil and wood chimney), which was done very well; during the cleaning we were informed that the liner for the oil chimney needed to be replaced. Additionally, our outside bricks on the chimney were in need of TLC (repointing etc.) We got bids from Dunrite and 2 other vendors, and decided to go with Dunrite (one of the other bids was $1000 more!) It was also nice to be able to pay with a credit card. The guys worked hard and fast in blistering heat without complaining. The office people were terrific too. We were very happy with the work and the price."

"Chimney Magic was very knowledgeable about code and requirements around stainless steel liners being required for clay fireplaces. They waterproofed the chimney after installing the liner, even rebuilding part of the chimney that had loose bricks. They were professional and really explained the issues. I highly recommend them!"

"They arrived on time. Work took longer than expected. Some spots could have been pointed more carefully. In a couple of spots the mortar fell out after the first fire. They were neat and cleaned up after finishing the job."

"We hired Quality 1st to clean two chimneys that were in terrible shape, install new dampers, and removed an old wood stove. Oscar and his team were polite, knowledgeable, and professional. They called me back immediately to schedule an estimate and provided. a timely, detailed quote. Oscar even went out of his way to check on a possible safety issue for us. Quality 1st arrived on time and had everything installed and cleaned up in just two hours. We appreciated how careful they were with our floors and rugs. The pricing was quite fair and Oscar stuck with our original quote even though we needed an additional repair. Oscar is reliable, honest, and a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend Quality 1st."

Some cities, like New York City, ban wood-burning fireplaces altogether. In places like Colorado and the California Bay Area, laws dictate when you can use your wood-burning fireplace based on air quality. Since regulations vary by location, it's best to consult a local contractor familiar with your area's laws. You can also check the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) website for state ordinances and regulations.
Yes, you can add a fireplace to your existing home, but it requires careful planning and professional evaluation. You'll need to construct a safe chimney, ensure proper ventilation, and comply with local building codes and HOA regulations. This project involves significant structural modifications and specialized labor, so hiring a qualified fireplace contractor is essential to ensure safety and code compliance.
Fireplaces enhance a home's value because they create a warm and inviting atmosphere while adding a distinctive architectural feature. A fireplace not only elevates a residence’s appeal but also contributes to greater market value. Industry research confirms that homes with fireplaces command higher sale prices, and homeowners benefit from an improved living environment.
Yes, installing a fireplace increases your home insurance costs because it raises the risk of fire and may require additional coverage. A fireplace demands dedicated safety inspections and documented maintenance, and insurers enforce stricter requirements, which drive higher premiums. Homeowners must consult their insurance providers and adhere to regular inspection schedules to manage these increased costs.
