"Exceptional quality! Phenomenal service! We had a new pellet stove installed (swapping out an old/inoperable wood stove). Masters Chimney and Hearth was not the least expensive option but you get what you pay for. In this case expertise, care, and quality! From the very beginning during the initial estimate Mark shared his thoughts and recommendations based on his experience. Domingo and his team (Malcom and Tristan) are true experts of their craft. They treated our home like their own. Their work was perfect and their cleanup was amazing! Highly recommend!"

"I called Ballard and the lady who answered was very nice and helpful. She told me when someone could be out to provide an estimate (1 business day). The person came out and left a written estimate for me. I then had to wait a few days for another vendor to provide me another estimate. Ballards estimate was $25 higher than the second estimate (with AL discount) but their response time and communication made me feel more comfortable using them. I sent the estimate back to Ballard via email. They called the next morning and we scheduled the time for the work to be completed. They came on the scheduled day. Cut and removed the limb from the shed. They then removed all of the wood from the yard. They left or sent a paper invoice and also sent one electronically. I paid with a credit card online. From my perspective the work went off without a hitch. As stated earlier, they got the job because of their quick response and clear communication during each step in the process. They also provided a $100 Angies List discount."

Fireside Stone & Patio has been providing renewable heating, alternative heating, and custom fireplace design to the Clarksville, Columbia, Carroll County and Greater Baltimore areas for over forty years! Fireside Stone & Patio doesn't just sell fireplaces and stoves. We also service and repair them. In addition to making sure your appliance runs well every year, we provide chimney sweeping, chimney repair, and chimney inspections.
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.
