Your Local Fireplace Repair Pros in Montgomery County, PA

Montgomery County fireplaces range from grand stone hearths in Main Line houses to simple brick fireplaces in postwar split-levels, and they wear out in the same places. Heat cracks the firebrick, the mortar joints burn out, dampers rust or warp, and the smoke chamber above loses its smooth surface. Any of those can let heat reach the framing or push smoke into the room. Our crew rebuilds fireboxes with heat-rated materials, replaces dampers, parges smoke chambers and repairs hearths, then tests the draft before we leave.

Fireplace Repair for Montgomery County Homes

In Cheltenham, historic homes by Frank Furness, Horace Trumbauer and Frank Lloyd Wright stand alongside split-level, twin and row houses. Architect-designed fireplaces deserve careful repair, so we work on the firebox and damper while protecting the original surround.

The King of Prussia Inn began as a cottage built in 1719 and is listed on the National Register. Fireplaces in houses that old were built for a different way of heating, and we check the flue and firebox before recommending a repair that suits how you plan to use it.

We repair fireplaces in Cheltenham, King of Prussia, Lower Merion, Horsham and Willow Grove.

Fireplace Repair Questions in Montgomery County

My fireplace smokes when the furnace runs. Why?
In a tight house, the furnace, exhaust fans and dryer all pull air, and the fireplace can become the easiest place for replacement air to come in. That sends smoke back into the room. Cracking a nearby window often proves it, and we can suggest longer-term fixes.
Can a cracked firebox be patched, or does it need to be rebuilt?
Small cracks and open joints can be repaired with refractory mortar. If firebricks are loose, crumbling or cracked through, we replace those bricks or rebuild the firebox so heat cannot reach the masonry and framing behind it.
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.
