What Are Some of Our Fireplace Repair Services?
At Clean Sweep Chimney service, we offer a wide range of fireplace repair services to address a variety of different issues. Here are some of the repair services we offer:
- Fireplace Firebox Repair: Cracks in a fireplace firebox can pose several issues. One of the major concerns with cracks is they can compromise the structural integrity of the fireplace. If left unaddressed, over time, these cracks can widen and cause structural damage. Our skilled technicians can fix this problem by tuckpointing. If you have a factory fireplace (prefab) we can replace the panels with factory or approved new refractory panels.
- Faulty Gas Ignition System Repair or Replacement: A faulty ignition system can make it difficult or impossible to light the flame and can potentially lead to gas leaks. Overall, a faulty ignition system can impair the functionality and safety of a fireplace. We can diagnose these problems and fix them accordingly, restoring the ignition system to its optimal working condition.
- Chimney Repair: The chimney plays a critical role in the functioning of any fireplace. It serves several important purposes like ventilation and structural support. Over time the chimney can face several issues impairing fireplace operation. For example, the chimney will develop buildup and, as a result, impede proper ventilation. Internal damage or wear will occur in time even with proper maintenance since creosote and chlorides are corrosive byproduct of burning wood and natural gas. We provide a wide range of chimney cleaning and repair services along with chimney leak repair, flue relining and sealing services that address issues such as these and more.
- Component Replacement: At Clean Sweep Chimney Service, we stock a variety of fireplace components. Having these components readily available makes it easy to replace the broken component with a new one when an issue arises. This streamlined process facilitates efficient and smooth replacement of the components. From chimney cap installation, damper replacement, clean out door replacement, to fireback installation, we can install components to improve the performance and efficiency of your fireplace.

Fireplace Repair FAQs
It depends on the type and severity of the problem. Some issues can create serious safety concerns when the fireplace is used, so it is best to have an unusual condition evaluated rather than continuing to use the fireplace and hoping it improves. Clean Sweep can explain whether the fireplace should remain out of service until repairs are completed.
Not necessarily. The appropriate solution depends on the fireplace’s construction, condition, and the specific problem. In some cases, repair or rehabilitation can restore an existing fireplace, while more extensive damage may require replacement of certain components.
Changes in fireplace performance can result from several issues, including problems with the damper, chimney, firebox, flue, airflow, or other components. A professional evaluation can help identify the underlying cause rather than treating only the symptom.
In some cases, yes. Repairing damaged or malfunctioning components can help the fireplace operate as intended, improving airflow and performance while addressing potential safety concerns. The appropriate repair depends on the condition and design of the fireplace.
