Fireplace Repair Details That Matter in Keystone
The fireplace repairs we make in Keystone carry our workmanship warranty.
What sits behind the firebox lining
Firebrick is only the face of the firebox. Code section R1001.5 wants the back and side walls built of 8 inches of solid masonry when that total includes a firebrick lining 2 or more inches thick, and 10 inches of solid masonry when there is no lining.
That depth is what keeps the heat of a fire away from the framing of the house. A coat of patching compound spread over missing brick does not rebuild it, which is why our pros repair the wall itself with brick and refractory mortar once the lining has worn through.
Spark screens and mesh curtains
A screen in front of an open fire stops sparks and rolling embers from reaching the floor, and NFPA's heating safety guidance recommends a sturdy screen for that reason. Mesh curtains tear, rods bend and pull chains break with years of use.
Our specialists repair or replace the screen hardware to fit the opening. Where a factory-built unit came with a specific screen, the replacement comes from the maker's parts list.
Ash dumps and cleanout doors
Some masonry fireplaces have an ash dump in the firebox floor and a cleanout door below it, outside or under the house. Doors rust shut, frames crack loose and dump covers go missing.
Our specialists repair or replace those parts so ashes go where they should. Cooling ashes before disposal still matters, and NFPA's safety guidance calls for a metal container kept a safe distance from the home.
Electric fireplaces are a different repair
Nothing burns in an electric fireplace, so what fails is electrical or mechanical, from heaters and fans to flame effects, controls and cords. Makers such as Dimplex tell owners to plug the unit straight into a wall outlet and never into an extension cord.
Our electric fireplace repair service handles those units separately from wood-burning work. New wiring or a new circuit is a job for an electrician, and the estimate says so.
