Damper & Firebox Repair

Fix stuck dampers and cracked fireboxes for a fireplace that works safely and efficiently.

A damper that will not seal wastes energy year-round, and a cracked firebox can let heat reach combustible framing. We repair and replace throat and top-sealing dampers, rebuild fireboxes with refractory brick and mortar, and replace worn smoke shelves and lintels so your fireplace is safe to enjoy.

What's included

  • Throat and top-sealing damper replacement
  • Firebox rebuilding with refractory brick
  • Refractory panel replacement for prefab units
  • Smoke shelf and lintel repair

Available at every location

Photos, findings, and pricing are emailed to you after each appointment, so you have a written record before deciding on any repair.

Gas-log conversion specialists

We convert aging wood fireplaces to gas units correctly, with the venting and clearances older Piedmont brick homes actually need.
