"Very well. As part of the service, the chimney sweep went on my roof and inspected the second chimney that handles the exhaust from my furnace. He explained what was causing my bricks to spall, and offered a solution. He was prompt, courteous, and effecient. I will use them again."

"I contacted Chimney Cricket about a upper chimney rebuild. Two man crew came out, set up a scaffold. One guy working up top and one guy doing ground work. They rebuilt the upper chimney in one day, The chimney looks good. I was satisfied with the work and I would recommend this company if you need brick work."

"Lee is the best, hands down.  I own a rental property in Ferndale and the city requires an inspection of the fireplace every two years.  Lee is the only person I have ever used and he is always on time, super friendly, always does  a great job cleaning the fireplace and then cleaning up.  I've also used him for the random one off repair like patching broken concrete steps and also patching around the foundation of my brick house.  
He is fair, has great pricing, does a great job, and is a wonderful guy.  Look no further than Lee, trust me!

"Our Chimney sweep, Jason, did and excellent job. First he inspected up on the roof top. Then he cleaned and did a safety inspection of our gas insert. He explained what he found and how we can use our fireplace more safely. He answered our questions and gave recommendations for our future fireplace remodel."

"Nosh is a true craftsman and an outstanding professional.  He provided a clear quote and stuck to it despite some unforeseen additional expenses.  His craftsmanship and professionalism is second to none.  He and his crew arrived each morning, worked hard, and cleaned up every day.  When more of the old stone was damaged than expected, he made MANY calls around to warehouses and was able to find an exact match to our 9 year old stone!!!  It's not just a match, even...it's the same stone.  It had be sitting in the warehouse for 9 years.  He bought what he needed for the job, advised us to get more for future repairs, and delivered it to our home.  I think we bought everything the warehouse had.  We'll never be able to find that stone again (as many masons have told us previously), but now we won't need to.  Most other contractors just don't put forth that extra effort to do the job right and make the customer happy.
When discussing other potential projects and details, he is very cost conscious while still having an eye on aesthetics.  He even came back after his work was complete to meet with carpenters to provide guidance on working around the remaining poorly installed stone.  We some of the caulking around the base of our backsplash had tiny holes after drying, he came back and fixed them.  We will definitely have Nosh back to repair more of the stone and do other masonry and tiling work.
Nosh has a bit of an accent, but it's really nothing...just a little extra patience when communicating over the phone.  With his skills and experience, this is the expert you want to do your masonry work!  Finding a true and honest craftsman like Nosh is 1 in 10,000 at least.

"Previous precast steps were in bad shape. Above all quoted just replacing the precast steps, but when we wanted something more permanent they were very accommodating. In one day, they removed the old steps, put in a conduit for the irrigation, laid brick risers and put on lovely limestone steps. A perfect job."

"Very well. Initial call returned within an hour. Michael arrived for appointment exactly on time, explained what he would do and what it would cost. He cut through dry wall and removed outside bricks. I had already ordered the door from Amazon and was mistakenly shipped the door without proper installation kit, so he had to make a second trip out for the actual installation, but did not charge me anything further. Very satisfied. He is a very friendly, very pleasant and very professional man and I highly recommend him."

"Sorry to be way overdue in responding with a review of Brick Concepts, they did a wonderful job.  They did tuck pointing on the chimney and also repaired brickwork in several areas on the house exterior. Unfortunately, we've misplaced our paperwork from the job, and I don't recall exact amount paid and exact date of service, so the date listed is "ball park".  The price seemed very reasonable for the work done. At some point in the future we will likely have some additional work done around our porch foundation, and will definitely give them prime consideration for that job."

FAQs for brick or stone fireplace repair projects in Detroit, MI

Permit requirements for fireplace insert removal vary by location and project scope. While removing an electric insert rarely requires permits, gas insert removals often do because they involve modifications to gas lines. Some municipalities also require permits for changes to structural elements or venting systems. Check with your local building department before beginning your project. Professional fireplace services typically handle permit acquisition as part of their package.

Removing a fireplace insert can potentially impact your home's value. Since fireplaces are desirable features in many housing markets, removing an insert (especially if it eliminates the fireplace's functionality) might negatively affect your property value. If you're planning to sell your home soon, consider keeping the fireplace intact. For homeowners planning to stay long-term, the potential energy efficiency gains from removing an inefficient fireplace might outweigh future resale considerations.

The time required to remove a fireplace insert depends on several factors, including the type of insert, its installation complexity, and whether structural modifications are needed. Professional removal services can typically complete the job in a single day, though complex situations involving gas lines, electrical work, or structural changes may require additional time. Your removal specialist should provide a time estimate based on your specific situation.

Many fireplace inserts contain recyclable materials, particularly metal components that can be processed at scrap facilities. Working inserts in good condition, especially wood-burning models, might have resale value. Before disposal, consider checking with recycling centers, architectural salvage shops, or online marketplaces to explore options for giving your old insert a second life. This approach can be both environmentally responsible and potentially offset some of your removal costs.
