Lincoln Fireplace Specialists

Two Decades of Fireplace Expertise

We’ve been serving Lincoln homeowners since 2000. Our experienced team has been working together for over two decades, and all our technicians are CSI certified through the Chimney Safety Institute of America.

This isn’t a side business or seasonal work for us. We’ve built our reputation on quality fireplace restoration and repair throughout Rhode Island. When you’re dealing with fire safety and structural work, experience matters.

We also operate a retail stove store, so we understand heating systems inside and out. That knowledge shows in every restoration project we complete.

Fireplace Restoration Process

Here's How We Restore Your Fireplace

First, we’ll come out for a free estimate and thorough inspection. We’ll assess the firebox, damper, flue, and surrounding structure to understand exactly what needs attention. No surprises or hidden issues later.

Next, we’ll walk you through what we found and explain your options. Sometimes a simple repair is enough. Other times, full restoration makes more sense for long-term value and safety.

The actual restoration work depends on your fireplace’s condition, but typically involves rebuilding damaged sections, replacing worn components, and ensuring everything meets current safety standards. We clean up completely when we’re done, and you’ll have a fireplace that works like new.

What's Included in Fireplace Restoration

Every restoration project is different, but we handle the full scope of work needed to get your fireplace back to safe, working condition. This includes firebox repair or rebuilding, damper replacement, flue work, and any necessary masonry repairs.

We also address efficiency improvements during restoration. Many older fireplaces can be upgraded to burn cleaner and heat more effectively without losing their character or charm.

Lincoln’s coastal climate can be tough on fireplace systems, especially older ones. We understand how salt air and moisture affect different materials, and we choose restoration approaches that will hold up to Rhode Island weather long-term. Our goal is fixing it right the first time, not creating a repeat customer.

How do I know if my fireplace needs restoration or just repair?

The key factors are safety and cost-effectiveness. If your firebox has multiple cracks, the damper doesn’t seal properly, or there’s structural damage to the chimney, restoration usually makes more sense than patching individual problems. We’ll assess the overall condition during your free estimate and explain whether targeted repairs or full restoration gives you better long-term value. Generally, if you’re looking at several separate repair issues, restoration addresses everything at once and often costs less than fixing problems one by one over time.

Can you restore a fireplace that hasn't been used in years?

Absolutely. Many Lincoln homes have fireplaces that were abandoned because of safety concerns or poor function. We regularly restore fireplaces that haven’t been used in decades. The process typically involves more extensive work since neglected systems develop multiple issues over time, but it’s almost always possible to bring them back to safe, working condition. We’ll need to inspect the entire system – firebox, flue, damper, and chimney structure – to determine what’s needed. Even severely damaged fireplaces can usually be restored rather than removed.

How long does fireplace restoration typically take?

Most restoration projects take 2-5 days depending on the scope of work needed. Simple firebox rebuilds might be done in a couple days, while comprehensive restoration involving masonry work, flue repair, and damper replacement takes longer. Weather can affect timeline for exterior chimney work. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe during the estimate process and keep you updated if anything changes. We work efficiently but don’t rush quality work – your safety depends on doing the job right.

Is fireplace restoration worth the cost compared to removal?

In most cases, yes. A functional fireplace adds significant value to your home and provides an efficient heating source. Removal is expensive too – you’re paying for demolition, disposal, and then closing up the space properly. Restoration preserves the character and value that drew you to the home in the first place. We offer in-house financing to make restoration more manageable, and the investment typically pays for itself in increased home value. Plus, you keep the cozy fires and lower heating bills that make fireplaces worthwhile.

Do you handle permits and inspections for restoration work?

Yes, we handle all necessary permits and coordinate inspections as required by Lincoln and Rhode Island codes. Our CSI certification means we know current safety standards and local requirements. We’ll pull permits when needed and schedule inspections at the right points in the project. This takes the administrative burden off you and ensures everything is done properly for insurance and resale purposes. You don’t need to worry about compliance issues – we make sure your restored fireplace meets all current codes and standards.

What's the difference between your restoration and what other companies offer?

The main differences are certification, experience, and quality control. Our technicians are CSI certified, which many competitors can’t claim. We’ve been doing this work with the same team since 2000, so we’ve seen every type of fireplace problem Lincoln homes can have. We also maintain higher quality standards because we’re not trying to be the cheapest option – we’re focused on doing restoration work that lasts. Our retail stove business gives us deeper knowledge of heating systems than companies that only do basic chimney cleaning or repairs.
