Firebox notes in a home inspection report
Home inspection reports often mention cracked firebrick or deteriorated joints with a recommendation to have a specialist evaluate them. That note alone does not tell a buyer how big the repair is.
Our technicians inspect the firebox for free and give you a written estimate you can use in your decisions. We describe what we see and what it would take to repair, without exaggerating or playing it down.
Checking a rebuild quote before you commit
A full firebox rebuild is a big job, and it is fair to want a second view. Sometimes a reline or a handful of replaced bricks will do the work of a rebuild, and sometimes the walls behind the lining really have failed.
Our technicians inspect at no charge and explain what they see, including when it agrees with the quote you already have. You decide with two written opinions in hand.
The joint between the firebox floor and the hearth
Where the firebox floor meets the hearth extension, two different parts share one edge. That joint often opens as the parts move differently with heat, leaving a gap where embers can settle.
Our technicians check that edge during a firebox repair. If the gap sits in the firebox, we repair it with refractory material. If the hearth itself is cracked or loose, we note it for hearth repair on the estimate.
Counting bricks for an honest estimate
A firebox repair price depends on how many bricks and how much joint length need work. Guesswork in either direction is unfair, either to you or to the job.
Our technicians count the damaged bricks and measure the joints that need repointing during the free inspection. The estimate shows those numbers, so you can see exactly what you are paying for.
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 Rosemont homeowners ask about firebrick
Why can't ordinary mortar be used inside the firebox?
Ordinary mortar is made for normal temperatures and can crumble after repeated fires. The Florida residential code calls for firebrick to be laid with medium-duty refractory mortar, and that is what our crew uses.
Will the new firebrick match the old?
We match the size of your existing lining so the pattern stays even. New brick starts lighter than old, soot-darkened brick and darkens with use. If an even look matters, ask about relining a whole wall.
