Hearth repair from the surface down
Matching hearth tile that is no longer made
Hearth tile often outlives its production run. Finding an exact match for a single broken tile can be difficult, and a near match may stand out.
We talk through the options before any tile comes up. Sometimes a spare tile is stored in the house. Sometimes a border or pattern change can make a partial repair look intended. Sometimes replacing the whole hearth surface is the tidier result. The estimate shows each option with its price, and the choice is yours. Keep any spare tiles you find in the house until the repair is planned.
Replacing damaged hearth bricks
A chipped or cracked hearth brick can usually be cut out and replaced without disturbing its neighboring units. The joints around it are removed, the brick broken out and the bed cleaned before a new unit is set.
Matching size, color and texture takes some searching with older brick. We discuss the likely match before starting. Where a brick has cracked because the base below moved, we deal with the base first, so the new brick does not crack along the same line.
Building out a hearth that is too short
Where a hearth extension is too small for its fireplace, extending it adds noncombustible floor where the rules call for it. The new section needs the same kind of base and support as the rest.
We plan how the extension will join the existing hearth and how its finish will match or contrast. We also plan how the room floor will be cut back and finished at the new edge. The estimate shows the extension, the floor edge work and any finish choices as separate lines.
Hearth support problems in Broadview Park
When a hearth in Broadview Park has dropped, tilted or pulled away from the fireplace, the support is the first thing we look at. Surface repairs wait until the support question is answered. Cracks along a straight line and gaps at the fireplace face are the usual signs.
We explain how the hearth is carried, what we can see and what would need opening to confirm. The support repair and the surface repair are priced as separate items, in the order they must happen. Relaying the surface over a moving support would only bring the crack back.

Hearth repair questions, answered plainly
What does the written record say after a hearth repair?
It notes what was replaced on the surface, the work carried out beneath it, the materials used and their source, and any setting time still running. It also lists what we saw but did not touch.
What does the workmanship warranty cover on hearth work?
It covers the hearth repair we carried out, meaning the surface we laid or reset and the base work we did. Parts of the hearth or floor we did not touch fall outside it, and we explain the terms when the job is finished.
What should I move off the hearth before the visit?
Plants, baskets, log holders, decorations and any rug in front of it. Let the fireplace go cold, and leave loose pieces where they are. Set out any spare tiles, an old invoice or the manual for a factory-built unit.
