Restoration details that matter in Storey Park
How a restoration runs in Storey Park, and the choices that stay with you.
When smoke rolls out of the opening
A fireplace that pushes smoke out of the opening has a reason. A cold flue, a damper that does not open all the way, debris in the smoke chamber, an opening too large for the flue or a house with strong exhaust fans can each be part of the answer.
We look for that reason before pricing any cosmetic work. Cleaning the face of a smoky fireplace without fixing the draft only means cleaning the same stains again. Our Storey Park crew explains what we found and which repairs should improve it.
Space around a restored fireplace
The U.S. Fire Administration advises a clear zone of 3 feet or more between a fireplace and anything that can burn. Furniture, rugs, baskets and decorations tend to creep closer over the years, especially around a fireplace nobody uses.
When we hand back a restored fireplace in Storey Park, we point out anything sitting too close. A metal mesh screen in front of an open fire keeps sparks off the floor, and a clear hearth keeps the new work looking new.
Loose stone on the fireplace face
Stone veneer and cut stone pieces on a fireplace face loosen when the mortar or adhesive behind them fails. A stone that moves when pressed is a warning, since a falling piece can crack the hearth or hurt someone.
We check each suspect stone and find out why it loosened. Sound pieces are reset on fresh mortar and the joints are repointed to match the existing ones. Any stone that cannot be reused is noted, and a matching replacement is discussed before work starts.
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 Storey Park fireplace goes back into use.
