Fireplace heats up neighbors wall


Hi All
Several years ago A&A Chimney restored a non working fireplace to my brownstone. My neighbor complains that her wall gets hot and the heat is cracking the paint. I had Andre come by and explain to her that he had used all code materials, but she is fearful that the heat is destroying or damaging her wall.
My walls to not peel or crack around or near the fireplace. I only use dura flame logs keep the damper open.
Anyone have any advice about her walls? Is it just the paint job? Should she be fearful of the wall getting warm?
Thanks for any insight

Has Anyone Heard From Rob Mara?


Hey All
Rob was supposed to come by my house last week and fix some tile work. Left a couple of messages with no reply-not like him. Has anyone heard from him of late? thanks
