What goes into restoring a fireplace in Windhover
What our specialists look at, and why, on restoration jobs around Windhover.
An inspection before the first fire
NFPA 211, the national standard for chimneys, fireplaces and vents, expects each of them to be inspected every year. A fireplace coming back into use after years of rest has the strongest case for that check, because nobody knows how it was left.
Every restoration scope we write in Windhover includes the flue above the fireplace, from the smoke chamber to the cap. Cleaning and checking that path before the first fire is part of returning the fireplace to use, and anything outside the fireplace itself is priced as its own item.
A worn firebox floor
The floor of the firebox carries the grate, the wood and the ashes, along with years of scraping. Brick there can crack, crumble at the surface or settle unevenly, and a loose floor brick lets heat and embers into the joints below it.
Once the firebox is clean, we check the floor brick by brick. Worn sections are replaced with suitable firebrick and laid to meet the side walls tightly. It is a small part of a restoration in Windhover, and one you will see every time a fire is lit.
The cap at the top matters to the fireplace below
A missing or damaged chimney cap lets rain, leaves and animals into the flue, and all of it ends up in the fireplace. It is one reason idle fireplaces decline so quietly.
We check the cap as part of the flue inspection. If it needs replacing, that is a separate item with its own line, and it protects the restored fireplace below.
What our workmanship warranty covers
Our workmanship warranty covers the repairs our crew carries out. It does not extend to old components you asked us to leave in place, which is one more reason the estimate keeps the two apart.
If something we did is not right, we come back and fix it under our 100% satisfaction guarantee. You will know exactly which parts of the fireplace that promise covers.
