Your Local Fireplace Repair Crew in Lehigh County, PA

A Lehigh County fireplace that gets used through long, snowy winters wears out in predictable places. Firebrick cracks from heat, the mortar joints in the firebox burn out, dampers rust from the moisture that comes down the flue, and smoke chambers lose their smooth parging. Older farmhouse fireplaces may also be too wide for their flue and smoke into the room. Our crew rebuilds fireboxes with refractory brick and mortar, replaces or adds top-sealing dampers, parges smoke chambers, repairs hearths and tests the draft before we pack up.

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

Fireplace Repair for Lehigh County Homes

Emmaus was settled in the early 1700s by German Lutheran and Reformed Protestants, and some of its oldest houses still have large original fireplaces. We repair those fireboxes with heat-rated materials while keeping the old stone and brick in front intact.

Upper Macungie Township was created in 1832, when Macungie Township was split in two, and its older farmhouses date from that era and earlier. Fireplaces in those homes often need firebox and damper work before regular use, and we check the flue size against the opening.

We repair fireplaces in Emmaus, Upper Macungie, Allentown, Lower Macungie and South Whitehall.

When to Call Us

  • Cracked or missing firebrick
  • A damper that will not open or close
  • Smoke coming into the room
  • Gaps in the firebox mortar

Fireplace Repair Questions in Lehigh County

Why is my damper rusted?
Rain coming down an uncapped flue, or condensation from a heating appliance, settles on the damper and rusts it. A cap usually stops the water, and we can replace the damper or add a top-sealing damper that closes at the crown.
Can you add glass doors to my old fireplace?
In most cases, yes. Doors can cut heat loss when the fireplace is not in use. We check that the firebox is sound and measure the opening so the doors fit and seal properly.
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.
