Fireplace Repair, Cape May CountyYour Local Fireplace Repair Pros in Cape May County, NJ
Many fireplaces in Cape May County get used hard for a few weeks, then sit cold for months. Others, in older homes, were built for coal grates and have been converted or closed off over the years. Either way, we often find cracked firebrick, gaps in the firebox mortar, a damper that will not close or a smoke chamber that needs parging. Our crew repairs the firebox, replaces dampers, fixes hearth and surround problems and makes sure the fireplace drafts properly before you light it again.

Fireplace Repair for Cape May County Homes
Cape May's historic sites include the 1879 Emlen Physick Estate, the Cape May Lighthouse and the World War II Lookout Tower. Victorian houses from the Physick Estate's era often have flues first built for coal grates, and their fireplaces need careful repair before they burn wood safely.
Historic Cold Spring Village, a 19th-century living history museum, is in Lower Township. Fireplaces in the township's older homes can have firebrick and mortar worn thin by long use, and we rebuild them with heat-rated materials.
We repair fireplaces in Lower Township, Cape May, Ocean City, Middle Township and Wildwood.
