Keeping the firebox sound for years of fires
Soft joints found with a probe
A joint can look complete and still be soft. Our technicians run a probe along the joints to find mortar that crumbles, gaps that run behind the face and sections that have already washed out.
What the probe finds decides whether repointing is enough. Sound joints stay. Soft ones are raked out and refilled, and the estimate describes the extent in plain words instead of a guess.
A family business behind every firebox repair in Lake Formosa
Orlando Chimney Service is owned and run by a local family, and the crew that relines your firebox in Lake Formosa answers to the same people who took your call. That keeps the work careful and the promises plain.
If the finished firebox falls short of what we agreed, our 100% satisfaction guarantee brings us back. The workmanship warranty covers the brick and joints we laid.
Take 10% off firebox repair booked within 72 hours
In Lake Formosa, any service booked within 72 hours after the free inspection is 10% off, and a firebox repair counts, whether it is three bricks or a whole new lining. Ask for it when you call and it is written onto the estimate.
The discount does not change how the job is done. The same firebrick, the same refractory mortar and the same cleanup apply, with prices set upfront and no hidden fees.
Glass doors and the edge of the firebox
Glass doors mount to the fireplace opening, and their frame often sits against the firebrick or the facing. Loose or crumbling brick at the edge of the opening can stop doors from sitting square.
Our technicians repair the brick at the opening so the edge is sound and true. Door replacement or adjustment is separate work, and we note on the estimate if the doors will need attention once the brick is repaired.
A screen across the opening
A screen across the opening keeps sparks and rolling embers in the firebox. It also keeps logs from sliding forward onto the edge of the floor and the hearth, where they can crack brick.
If your fireplace has no screen, or the screen no longer fits after a repair, our technicians mention it. It is a simple addition that protects the room and the new brick alike.

What Lake Formosa homeowners ask about firebrick
How soon can I use the fireplace after a firebox repair?
It depends on the refractory product used. Its data sheet sets the drying time and any first-fire steps, and we write that guidance on your job sheet. A repair should not be used just because it looks dry.
What should I do before the appointment in Lake Formosa?
Skip fires for a day or two so the brick is cold, clear cooled ashes if you can and note where the damage is. Our crew protects the room when it arrives.
