Has anyone had black soot stain walls and carpet from a gas fireplace?
|
I have a new house and my ceiling is striped. When I remove pictures from the wall, it leaves a square. The blinds are dingy as well as the trim. I have repainted the mantel and I can write my name in the tile. I have had the logs professionally cleaned and it continues. I want to solve the problem and repaint. Please help!
