A damper that's rusted, stuck or gone

Can't close the damper, or can't open it? A stuck damper means smoke in the room or cooled air escaping up the flue all year. Rust, warping and broken handles are the usual reasons.

Damper repair can involve cleaning a binding frame, replacing a damaged control or fitting an approved replacement. A top-sealing damper is considered only where the fireplace and fuel permit a closable flue. Our specialists explain the suitable options and put the proposed work in writing.

Local Conditions

Leaves and needles on the crown

Leaves and pine needles that collect on a chimney crown in Williston Highlands hold rain against the concrete and the cap base long after a shower ends. That trapped water works into hairline cracks.

When our pros repair a chimney, they clear the crown, check the cracks underneath the debris, and suggest a cap design that sheds leaves if yours keeps catching them.

Why a chimney starts to lean

All that brick needs a solid base. Under the Florida Building Code, the base under a chimney is a concrete or solid-masonry pad no thinner than 12 inches, reaching 6 inches or more beyond the chimney all the way around.

When the soil under that footing settles, or the footing was too small to begin with, the whole chimney tilts away from the house. A lean that starts above the roofline points to loose masonry there instead. Our pros check both, measure any gap at the wall, and tell you which it is, because the repair for each is very different. Marking the gap and checking it again over a few weeks shows if it's still moving.

Curing time before you light another fire

New mortar, a fresh crown and refractory repairs all need time to set before they face heat and weather. Rushing the first fire after a firebox repair can crack fresh joints, and heavy rain on uncured work washes it out.

How long each repair needs before the fireplace can be used depends on the materials and the maker's instructions, and you'll know the wait up front. Where rain threatens fresh work, it's covered until it has set. You'll have that timing written out with the quote, so you can plan around it without guessing. Crowns and firebox repairs take the longest, and small mortar touch-ups the least.

Sealing a hairline crack in the crown

A crack no wider than a hair in the concrete crown doesn't need a new crown yet. Left alone, though, it lets water in, and the crack widens every time the crown heats and cools.

Clean the crack, fill it with a material made for concrete, then coat the crown with a flexible sealer that bridges fine cracks and sheds water: a small job done early. The coating needs a dry, sound surface and dry weather while it cures, so the timing matters. Wide cracks, loose pieces or a crown that doesn't overhang the brick are past this kind of repair, and the quote will say so.
