Common Fireplace Issues We Solve
Even the most durable fireplaces require professional attention over time. Our team is adept at diagnosing and fixing a wide variety of problems:
Gas Fireplace Pilot Light & Burner Issues
If your gas fireplace won't stay lit or refuses to turn on, the issue often lies in the pilot assembly.
- Thermocouple & Thermopile Testing: We test and replace sensors that have worn out, ensuring your gas valve opens and closes safely.
- Pilot Orifice Cleaning: Soot and dust can clog the pilot light; we clear these obstructions to restore reliable ignition.
- Electronic Ignition Repair: For modern units, we troubleshoot control modules and wiring to get your flames back at the flip of a switch.
Flue & Ventilation Blockages
A blocked flue is a major hazard that can lead to carbon monoxide backup.
- We clear obstructions caused by debris, soot buildup, or nesting animals common in the wooded areas of Jackson County.
- Our
Drone Inspection Services allow us to safely assess your chimney’s exterior venting without the need for immediate scaffolding.
Damper & Firebox Repairs
- Damper Issues: We repair or replace faulty dampers that are stuck or rusted, helping you regain control over your home's airflow and heating efficiency.
- Firebox Cracks: High heat can eventually crack the firebox lining. We address these structural issues to prevent heat from escaping into your home's framing.
Fan & Blower Replacement
If your fireplace fan is making a grinding or shrieking noise, it likely has a bad bearing or a bent housing. We can repair or replace blowers to ensure heat is being properly circulated through your living space.
