Your Local Fireplace Repair Service in Bergen County, NJ

Many Bergen homes have a fireplace that gets lit a few times a winter, and those occasional fires can hide problems for years. Firebrick cracks, firebox joints wash out, dampers rust and smoke chambers turn pitted and start holding creosote. A fireplace in that state drafts poorly and can send heat toward the framing. We rebuild tired fireboxes, put in new dampers and coat rough smoke chambers smooth, so the next fire lights easily and the smoke goes where it should.

Open 24 hours, Sunday to Friday. Free written estimates.

Fireplace Repair for Bergen County Homes

Victorian homes went up along Berdan Avenue and nearby streets in Fair Lawn's farm era. A fireplace in one of those older farm-era houses deserves a careful look at the firebox and flue before it goes back to regular wood burning.

Grand Avenue in Englewood has several houses on the National Register of Historic Places, including the Thomas Demarest House and the Garret Lydecker House. Fireplace repairs in historic homes aim to fix the firebox while keeping the original masonry intact.

We repair fireplaces in Fair Lawn, Englewood, Ridgewood, Teaneck and Mahwah.

Fireplace Repair Questions in Bergen County

Is it safe to use a fireplace that has not been used in years?
Not without a check. Unused flues collect nests and debris, dampers rust shut and firebox mortar can crumble. We go over the firebox, damper and flue and list what to fix before you strike a match.
Can you convert my Bergen fireplace to gas logs?
Often, yes. Gas logs still need a sound firebox, a working damper setup and a clear flue to carry the exhaust. We handle the masonry and flue side, then explain what the conversion involves before you commit.
Why does my fireplace smoke?
A closed or broken damper, a cold flue, a blocked flue or a firebox that is too big for the flue can all cause it. We find which one.
