Fireplace Repair, Chester CountyYour Local Fireplace Repair Team in Chester County, PA
Large old cooking fireplaces in Chester County farmhouses were built for open fires, and many have since been fitted with dampers, glass doors or stoves. Each change affects how the fireplace works, and decades of use leave cracked firebrick, burned-out joints and rusted dampers. In newer homes the problems are more often a warped damper, a cracked firebox panel or a hearth that has settled. We repair fireboxes with heat-rated materials, replace dampers, parge smoke chambers and fix hearths, then check the draft before we leave.

Fireplace Repair for Chester County Homes
Part of Valley Forge National Historical Park lies in Tredyffrin, including the Knox Covered Bridge. Older homes nearby often have wide, shallow fireplaces from an earlier way of heating, and we repair them so they work safely for occasional fires today.
The Chester County Courthouse in West Chester is a Classical Revival building designed in the 1840s by Thomas U. Walter, at the center of a downtown historic district. Older borough homes around it often have original mantels and surrounds, and we protect them while working on the firebox.
We repair fireplaces in Tredyffrin, West Chester, Malvern, Kennett Square and West Goshen.
