The engineering behind a factory-built fireplace repair
Start with the label on the unit
Your factory-built fireplace should carry a listing label that identifies the maker, the model and the test standard behind it. That label is the key to every repair that follows. It tells us which manual applies and which parts the maker supports for that unit.
Look for it before you call, if you can do so without removing anything. Check the inside edges of the opening and behind the screen, but leave panels and trim where they are. Read us the maker and model, and we can prepare the right questions for your free inspection.
Heat marks on trim and facing
Darkened paint, scorched trim or cracked finish above the opening can show that heat is reaching materials too close to the fire. The manual sets how near combustible trim and facing may sit, and how far a projection above the opening may reach. Those limits vary by model.
We measure what is there against the manual for your unit. A finish added after the original installation can be the source of the trouble. If a change is needed, we explain what must move or be replaced with noncombustible material and list it as its own item.
A unit that has moved in its framing
A factory-built fireplace is fastened to its framing through nailing flanges or brackets. If those fasteners loosen or the platform beneath settles, the unit can shift. Gaps may open at the hearth or facing, and chimney joints above can be stressed.
We check for signs of movement around the unit and in the chimney run. Re-securing the unit follows the manual. If the platform or framing needs work, it is listed separately, so you can see the structural part on its own.
Work this prefab service does not include
This service repairs the factory-built fireplace and its listed chimney with the maker's parts. It does not cover replacing the whole unit, which is a fireplace installation. Chase framing, the chase top and roof work sit with our chimney services.
Door fitting, mantel work and gas conversions fall outside this page as well. When a fault crosses into one of those areas, we name it and explain which service handles it. You get one clear picture rather than a set of disconnected quotes.

How does the inspection discount work on prefab repairs?
Give the go-ahead within 72 hours of your own free inspection, and a 10% discount covers any service on that estimate. We explain the terms when we hand you the estimate. Ask at the visit if any part of them is unclear.
What happens if insulation is touching the chimney pipe?
Insulation against a factory-built chimney fills the air space the listing depends on. The code calls for a shield where the pipe passes through insulated space. We check the attic run, note any missing shield or firestop and price the correction separately.
Should I keep using the fireplace until the repair is done?
We advise against it when a panel has pieces missing, the firebox metal is exposed or chimney joints have separated. Manuals say not to operate a damaged fireplace. If the fault does not affect safe use, we tell you that as well.
