How our crew restores a fireplace in Union Park
What our specialists look at, and why, on restoration jobs around Union Park.
A hearth that has settled
A hearth that tilts, pulls away from the fireplace face or leaves a gap at the firebox edge has usually moved with its support. That gap lets embers slip under the hearth, which is exactly what a hearth is there to stop.
Our technicians find out why it moved before recommending a repair. Sealing a gap over a support problem only hides it for a while. The written plan keeps the visible repair and any support work as separate lines.
Repointing the brick face
Mortar joints on the room side of a fireplace crack and loosen after years of heat and cleaning. Open joints around the opening look worn and let heat and soot into the wall.
We rake out failed joints and repoint them by hand. National Park Service guidance on repointing calls for mortar softer than the brick, so the joint takes the wear instead of the brick edges. Your Union Park estimate lists the joints included and how the new mortar will be matched.
Replacing a cracked face brick
A face brick that is cracked through, flaking at the surface or burned at the edge of the opening can be cut out and replaced. The old mortar around it is removed without harming the bricks beside it.
Finding a match is the hard part. We look for a brick close in size, color and texture and show you the closest option before cutting anything out. If no acceptable match exists in Union Park or beyond, you decide whether to replace the unit anyway or leave it in place.
Nests and debris in an idle fireplace
Birds and small animals nest in chimneys that are not in use, and their material ends up on the smoke shelf and the damper. Nesting debris burns fast and can block the flue.
We remove debris that has fallen in and look for the entry point at the top. If an animal may still be inside, work stops and a lawful process comes first. The cap or screen that keeps animals out is listed separately.

What Union Park homeowners ask about old fireplaces
Short answers from the technicians who restore fireplaces in Union Park.
Will you pressure wash my fireplace?
No. Pressure washing and abrasive blasting can permanently damage brick and mortar joints, and indoors they soak the wall and floor. Fireplace faces are cleaned by hand with the mildest method that works.
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.
