Damper & Firebox Repair

Damper replacement and firebox rebuilds so the fireplace seals tight and burns without cracking.

Brick fireplace with a roaring fire
Roofline with a brick chimney

A throat damper that has rusted open sends heated air up the stack all winter and lets humid summer air pour back down into the room, while a firebox with crumbling refractory joints can let a hot fire reach the framing behind it. We replace worn throat dampers, install top-sealing dampers that close the flue at the cap, rebuild fireboxes with firebrick and refractory mortar, and swap cracked panels in the factory-built units common in newer neighborhoods.

What's included

  • 01Top-sealing damper installation with a chain-operated seal at the cap
  • 02Throat damper plate and frame replacement
  • 03Firebox rebuilds with firebrick laid in refractory mortar
  • 04Refractory panel replacement for factory-built fireplaces
  • 05Lintel and smoke shelf repair
