Everything Your Fireplace Needs

Fireplace restoration covers structural repairs, functional improvements, and aesthetic enhancements. This includes repairing damaged fireboxes, replacing worn dampers, fixing ventilation issues, and restoring the original appearance of brick or stone work.

Many Warwick homes have fireplaces that haven’t been properly maintained for years. Our restoration process brings these systems back to safe, efficient operation while preserving their character and charm.

Our service also includes upgrading components when beneficial – like installing new grates, screens, or glass doors that improve both function and appearance. You get a fireplace that works better than it has in years while looking its absolute best.

How long does fireplace restoration typically take to complete?

Most fireplace restoration projects take between 2-5 days, depending on the extent of work needed. Simple restorations focusing on cleaning and minor repairs might be completed in a day or two. More comprehensive projects involving structural repairs, damper replacement, or extensive repointing can take up to a week. The timeline depends on factors like the fireplace’s current condition, the scope of restoration needed, and any custom work required. During the initial inspection, you’ll get a realistic timeframe based on your specific situation, so you know exactly what to expect before work begins.

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

Fireplace repair typically addresses specific problems – like fixing a broken damper or sealing a small crack. Restoration is more comprehensive, bringing the entire fireplace system back to optimal condition while preserving or enhancing its original appearance. Restoration includes structural repairs, functional improvements, thorough cleaning, repointing mortar joints, and refinishing surfaces. It’s designed to address current issues while preventing future problems. If your fireplace has multiple issues or hasn’t been maintained in years, restoration is usually more cost-effective than doing separate repairs over time. The goal is a fireplace that looks great and works like new.

Can you restore fireplaces in older Warwick homes safely?

Yes, restoring fireplaces in older homes is exactly what we specialize in. Many Warwick properties have fireplaces built decades ago that need careful attention to bring them up to current safety standards while preserving their character. Our restoration process includes updating components that may not meet modern codes, like adding proper ventilation or installing appropriate liners. Our CSI certification means we understand both historical construction methods and current safety requirements. We know how to work with older materials and systems while ensuring everything meets today’s safety standards. You get the charm of an original fireplace with modern safety and efficiency.

Do you offer financing for larger fireplace restoration projects?

Yes, we offer in-house financing for fireplace restoration projects. This makes it easier to get the comprehensive restoration your fireplace needs without having to wait or compromise on quality. Our financing process is straightforward, and you can discuss options during your free estimate. Having in-house financing means you’re working directly with us rather than dealing with third-party lenders, which often makes the process smoother and more flexible. Many homeowners find this particularly helpful for larger restoration projects that significantly improve their home’s value and safety. You can focus on getting the work done right rather than worrying about upfront costs.

Will fireplace restoration increase my home's value?

A professionally restored fireplace typically adds significant value to your home, both in actual market value and appeal to potential buyers. Fireplaces are major selling points, but only when they’re in good working condition. A restored fireplace shows potential buyers that the home has been well-maintained and that they won’t need to worry about expensive fireplace repairs. The restoration also improves the room’s appearance, making it more attractive and livable. Many Warwick homeowners find that fireplace restoration is one of the better returns on investment for home improvements, especially when done by certified professionals who ensure the work meets all safety standards and local codes.

What should I expect during the free estimate process?

Our free estimate includes a thorough inspection of your fireplace system, from the firebox up through the chimney. We’ll explain any issues found, discuss restoration options, and provide a detailed written estimate. You’ll get clear information about what work is needed, what’s optional, and realistic timeframes for completion. There’s no pressure or sales pitch – just honest assessment and professional recommendations. The estimate appointment usually takes 30-45 minutes, depending on your fireplace’s condition and any questions you have. You’ll leave with a complete understanding of your fireplace’s condition and exactly what restoration would involve, including costs and timeline.
