What Proper Restoration Actually Delivers

You get your fireplace back the way it should be. Safe for your family to use without worry. Beautiful enough to be the centerpiece of your room again. Built to last decades, not just a few seasons.

Most Providence homes have fireplaces with real character – original brick, unique mantels, details you can’t replace. When restoration is done right, you preserve all of that while fixing the problems that have been nagging you. No more drafts, smoke issues, or wondering if it’s actually safe to light a fire.

The difference is in the details. We restore the structure, address the safety concerns, and make sure everything works like it did when your house was new. Your fireplace becomes something you actually want to use, not just look at.

Fireplace Restoration Process Providence

How We Restore Your Fireplace Right

We start with a thorough inspection to understand exactly what your fireplace needs. Not just the obvious problems, but the underlying issues that cause them. This tells us whether you need structural work, safety updates, or cosmetic restoration.

Next comes the actual restoration work. We address structural problems first – damaged masonry, compromised fireboxes, ventilation issues. Then we move to the functional elements like dampers, flue liners, and safety features. Finally, we restore the aesthetic elements that make your fireplace beautiful again.

Throughout the process, we keep your home clean and respect your daily routine. Most restoration projects take several days, but we coordinate with you to minimize disruption. You’ll know what’s happening each step of the way, and we don’t consider the job done until your fireplace is safe, functional, and looks exactly like you envisioned.

This includes structural repairs, safety updates, efficiency improvements, and aesthetic restoration.
