What goes into restoring a fireplace in Lake Nona
Each point below shapes the restoration we recommend in Lake Nona and appears in your written scope.
Finding the label on a factory-built fireplace
The Florida Building Code requires a factory-built fireplace to be listed and labeled, tested to UL 127 and installed under the conditions of that listing. The label names the maker and the model, and it leads straight to the right manual and the right replacement parts.
Labels hide behind grilles, on side panels or under years of soot. Our technicians look for it during the free inspection and record the model in your estimate. When the label is gone, we say so, because a plan for an unidentified unit has limits you should hear about up front.
Hearth extensions for factory-built fireplaces
Under the Florida Building Code, the hearth extension of a factory-built fireplace follows the unit's listing and must be readily distinguishable from the surrounding floor. The listing sets its size and material.
When flooring has changed around a factory-built unit, the extension can vanish under new material or shrink. We check it against the manual and explain what the listing asks for before your Lake Nona fireplace goes back into use.
Checking the flue above the fireplace
A restored fireplace is only as safe as the flue above it. Cracks, blockages and missing parts in the chimney can turn a sound fireplace into a hazard the first time it is lit.
The chimney above your fireplace is cleaned and checked as part of our restoration in Lake Nona. Anything found up there is reported with its own estimate line, so you see the whole picture before approving the fireplace work below.
Alarms and a clear hearth before the first fire
Test the smoke and carbon monoxide alarms in the house before the first fire of the season. Clear the hearth of anything that can burn and keep a metal screen in front of an open wood fire.
These are small habits, and they matter most with a fireplace that is new to you. Our crew in Lake Nona goes over them at the handover along with the curing steps for the new work.

Quick answers on restoration in Lake Nona
Short answers from the technicians who restore fireplaces in Lake Nona.
Will the repairs match the original brick and mortar?
We look for brick close in size, color and texture and match mortar color, sand and joint shape. You see the closest options before anything is cut out, and if no good match exists, you decide how to proceed.
Do you protect the room while you work?
Yes. Floors and nearby furniture are covered, dust control is set up and the room is tidied at the end of each day. Tell us about anything fragile near the fireplace before we start.
