"First of all, I cannot say enough great things about Sergio of Brickhouse Masonry and his crew. These guys were masterminds and true professionals when it came to installing stonework at my house. From the first time I met Sergio, I knew that this was the guy I could trust with my house. He knew exactly what I wanted and had awesome ideas that we added, that just turned out amazing and better than I could ever imagine. I have been in business and customer service my whole life and Sergio and his company has it. He always answered his phone no matter what day it was or at least called me back within minutes which speaks big of the company. I highly recommend Sergio of Brickhouse and his company for all your future work you will not regret it."

"I was so fortunate to have found Jesus Pantoja Landscaping to complete a project in my backyard. We started with uneven dirt and non blooming trees and finished with a paved courtyard and I couldn’t be happier with the finished product. Jesus Pantoja Landscaping is a family operation and they are terrific people with great work ethic he and his team were punctual, professional and are a joy to work with. I would highly recommend them for design, install, and maintenance to those who are particular and want outstanding service."

"Mike of Chabi's air was relentless in finding and solving the problem. He repaired the heater rather than replacing the entire system and costing thousands. We could not be happier."

"MJ builder exceeded our expectations. While most builders are struggling with supply chain and labor issues MJ didn’t miss a step. They are reliable, efficient and professional. They recently remodeled our living room; removed existing gas fireplace, installed new energy efficient fireplace, refaced/repainted, addressed numerous electrical issues, and retitled cracked travertine tile. They did this in 3 days and cleaned during and after they concluded our project. We LOVE the outcome! MJ will be our go to for all future projects and so grateful to have met Connie & MJ team who’s as honest and hard working as they get. Connie talked me out of unnecessary work. Who does that? Thanks Connie & MJ team!!!"

"They were great! I want to say it was like a week and they were done. They gave me a 50 year warranty when everybody else I was talking to only had a 30 year. My wife and I were thrilled. we exatic about how much better our house looks. The guys were super clean and I did not find a nail in the yard."

FAQs for fireplace and wood stove service projects in Modesto, CA

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.
