"We had the old wood burning fireplace, stove pipe, chimney cap, and chase cover completely removed (fireplace was rusted out, unsafe, and unusable). In its place we had a 36 inches SimpliFire electric fireplace with an integrated 10,000 BTU heater installed and trimmed-out with metal. Although initially skeptical of a fake fireplace, it is incredibly realistic in all respects (the flames, fire, logs, articulation, coals, etc.) and truly conveys having real fireplace in our great room. The fireplace has a remote and you are able to adjust the fire setting (flame height), set the temperature, and use a timer to automatically have it turn off at a desired interval. The heat output is separate from the fire and you are able to just have the fire going without any heat for next to nothing in terms of cost. When selected, the heat output is incredibly warm (but safe) and the blower is barely perceptible. Also, the 10,000 BTU is more than sufficient for a large room and none of the heat is being wasted up the chimney. Additionally, there is no wood, duraflame, ashes, cleanup, etc. However, if you want that persistent smoky smell in your home and the realistic crackle and pop, then you will want a traditional fireplace. However, for my wife and I, there is no way we would ever go back to a traditional fireplace as the replacement is so realistic and convenient (realism, aesthetics, and function). In addition to the fireplace, we also had a stainless steel chase cover (20-year warranty) installed to keep out the elements (the old one leaked terribly) and anchored securely to withstand poor weather. Sootmaster also sealed all the mortar cracks and applied several coats of Chimney Saver to the entire brick chimney. As for value, I rated Sootmaster as 4.0/5.0 only because their price is on the high-side. However, the old adage **you get what you pay for** is so true and the service, responsiveness, craftsmanship, and quality are outstanding and from our initial engagement to project completion, they exceeded our expectations and provided an outstanding product and service, and we highly recommend them and will use them in the future."

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.
