"Anthony serviced my gas fireplace in October. Recently I had some concerns about how the fireplace was performing. I called Anthony and he made the time in his schedule to come to assess the issue. He checked his previous work and explained that what was happening is common in vent free gas fireplaces. He is an honest and hardworking young man who is striving to build his company. He is doing all the right things to make that happen."

"Shamrock Maintenance Corp. did an excellent job cleaning and inspecting our wood burning stove. The technician arrived on time, was professional, and explained everything clearly before starting the work. They made sure the area was protected and left everything clean once the job was completed. I appreciated how thorough the inspection was and the time they took to answer our questions. It’s hard to find reliable service these days, but they definitely delivered. Highly recommend."

"Great company! I called and scheduled for a sweep and inspection of my fireplace. While the technician was there he noticed some spots on my chimney that needed repair and quoted me on the spot. The workmen who came out were wonderful, polite and very informative. I would recommend Felgemacher to anyone who wants quality work in a timely manner."

"Brian from DeRisio suggested a very innovative means of solving a very bad deck problem that has plagued me for 20 years. Using the Techno Post system, new posts were sunk to a depth of six feet, with the capacity to support far more weight than required. The DeRisio crew then quickly installed new header beams and treated wood posts connecting to the Techno Posts, working their way rapidly around obstacles and developing solutions for unforeseen complications. The total effort was far better than any solution proposed by other contractors, and at lower cost than some proposals. I have total confidence now that the deck will outlive me. It was an absolute pleasure working with the DeRisio crew in all respects.

"This company came to clean my chimney. I believe that is not their main job. I told them I just purchased the house and they should have made sure I knew how to use it properly. They charged me for a video service cleaning I did not see. They should show you what they see. They did not check my flu, or if they did they mentioned nothing about it. I asked them about the size, if it was suitable and they said they it was small and the fire might come out the top and how to put the wood in. I wish they could have given more information. Also, they could have told me that the grate was broken instead of putting it back in. Finally, they emptied their shop vac on my driveway and tried to clean it up. It was a mess. I would not hire them for cleaning a fireplace."

FAQs for fireplace and wood stove service projects in Rochester, NY

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.
