Complete Fireplace Renovation Services

Full-Service Fireplace Solutions

Fireplace restoration covers a lot of ground. We handle structural masonry work, firebox repairs, damper replacement, and chimney crown restoration. If your fireplace needs it, we can fix it.

We also specialize in stove installations – wood, pellet, and gas systems. Sometimes the best solution for an old fireplace is a modern, efficient insert that gives you better heat output and easier maintenance.

Kingston’s older homes often have unique fireplace configurations that require experienced hands. We’ve seen just about every situation over the past two decades, from historic restorations to complete renovations that bring century-old fireplaces up to modern standards.

How much does fireplace restoration typically cost in Kingston?

Fireplace restoration costs vary significantly based on what needs to be done. Minor repairs might run a few hundred dollars, while complete restoration of a damaged fireplace can cost several thousand. The key factors are the extent of structural damage, whether the chimney needs work, and what components need replacement. We provide free estimates so you know exactly what you’re looking at before any work begins. Most homeowners find that proper restoration costs less than they expected and adds significant value to their home.

How long does a typical fireplace restoration project take?

Most fireplace restoration projects take between 2-5 days, depending on the scope of work. Simple repairs might be completed in a day, while comprehensive restoration involving masonry work, damper replacement, or structural repairs takes longer. Weather can affect timeline if chimney work is involved. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe upfront and keep you updated if anything changes. We understand you want your fireplace back in working order quickly, especially during heating season.

Can you restore very old fireplaces to modern safety standards?

Absolutely. That’s actually one of our specialties here in Kingston, where many homes have fireplaces that are 50+ years old. We can bring older fireplaces up to current safety codes while preserving their character and functionality. This often involves updating the damper system, repairing or replacing the firebox, and ensuring proper ventilation. Our CSI certification means we understand both historical fireplace construction and modern safety requirements. The goal is making your fireplace safe and functional without losing what makes it special.

What's the difference between fireplace repair and full restoration?

Fireplace repair addresses specific problems – maybe a damaged damper, cracked firebox, or minor masonry issues. Restoration is more comprehensive, often involving multiple components and bringing the entire fireplace system back to proper working condition. If your fireplace hasn’t been used in years, needs significant structural work, or has multiple issues, restoration is usually the better approach. We’ll assess your specific situation and recommend the most cost-effective solution. Sometimes what looks like a major restoration need is actually just a few targeted repairs.

Do you handle fireplace restoration for insurance claims?

Yes, we work with insurance companies regularly for fireplace restoration after damage from storms, water intrusion, or other covered events. We can provide detailed documentation of damage and necessary repairs that insurance adjusters need. Our experience with insurance work means we understand what information is required and how to present it properly. We’ll work directly with your insurance company when possible to streamline the process. Keep in mind that insurance typically covers damage restoration, not general maintenance or updates.

What should I expect during the fireplace restoration consultation?

During our consultation, we’ll thoroughly inspect your fireplace and chimney system to identify any issues. We’ll check the firebox, damper, flue, and visible chimney components. You’ll get a clear explanation of what we find – both problems and things that are in good condition. We’ll discuss your options, timeline, and provide a written estimate. The consultation is free, and there’s no pressure to decide immediately. We want you to understand exactly what your fireplace needs and feel confident about moving forward.
