Fireplace restoration in Coral Shores, planned as one job
Start from how you want to use the fireplace
Tell us what you want from the fireplace. Some people want regular fires again. Others want it safe for an occasional evening, or simply sound and good to look at. The goal changes which items matter most.
A fireplace that will burn often needs every fire-facing part in good order. One that will rarely burn may need the same safety items but less finish work. We write the goal at the top of the estimate, so every line below it can be read against that purpose.
Resetting hearth tiles that have lifted
Tile hearths lose grip over time, especially where they take the most traffic and heat. A loose tile can crack further or let embers reach the bed beneath it.
We lift loose tiles, clean the bed and reset them in a material suited to the heat. Broken tiles are replaced with the closest available match. If the original tile is no longer made, we show you the options before choosing. The hearth tile work is its own line on the estimate.
Tile surrounds around the opening
Tile surrounds frame many fireplace openings. Heat and age can loosen tiles, crack glaze and open grout joints.
We reset loose tiles and replace broken ones with the closest match we can find. Grout is refilled in a material that suits the heat near the opening. If the original tile is no longer made, we explain the choices before removing anything. A tile surround is often the most visible part of a restoration, so we treat it with the same care as the brick.
Checking how the restored fireplace draws
Once the work is complete and the mortar has cured as directed, the fireplace should draw smoke up the flue without spilling into the room. That is the test that matters most.
We explain how to judge the draft on the early fires and what to watch for. If smoke spills, let the fire burn out and tell us. The cause may be something outside the restored parts, such as the flue or the air supply in the house, and we explain what that would involve.

Common fireplace restoration questions
Is restoration the same as remodeling a fireplace?
No. Restoration keeps the existing design and brings it back to working order. Changing the look, the materials or the layout is remodeling, which we do not offer. We tell you if a request falls outside restoration.
Can you restore a factory-built fireplace as well?
Yes, within its listing. Panels, grates and other replacement parts have to come from that model's own parts list. The label on the unit gives the model and serial number we order by.
Is restoration worth it if I will rarely light a fire?
If you will light it at all, the parts that keep a fire safe still need to work. If you will not burn in it, tell us, and we explain which items still matter for a fireplace that stays closed.
