Curling up in front of the fireplace with a book can be cozy on a cold winter’s day, but it can also be dangerous if you don’t maintain your fireplace and use it correctly. The DiMora Team are real estate experts in the Novi and Northville neighborhoods and we know that its important to hire a certified chimney cleaner to inspect your fireplace and chimney at least once a year so they can remove dangerous clogs and buildup that can accumulate throughout the year. Installing a wire mesh cap on top of your chimney will prevent birds and critters from coming down it. Be sure to burn seasoned hardwood that has been dried for at least six months. Green unseasoned or soft woods, such as pine, emit more creosote and that’s the flammable stuff that can build up in your chimney. Check out below to see what sold in Stonehenge in April 2016:

Spark guard screens should be placed in front of your fire to prevent embers from flying into your living room and potentially starting trouble. Most importantly, keep a fire extinguisher on hand and be sure you know how to use it.
