WHEN IS THE TIME FOR A FIREPLACE RESTORATION?
When a fireplace is damaged or installed improperly, an inspection may be necessary. An inspection by a qualified fireplace and chimney expert will help you determine what to do next. After all, a damaged fireplace, or one that does not meet current building codes, could pose a serious hazard to people, pets, or anyone else in the home. At Boston Brick & Stone, we recommend a fireplace inspection at least once a year or after a major event such as an earthquake. Fireplaces and chimneys are susceptible to damage that homeowners are often unaware of. In older homes with less frequent inspection, the risk can be even greater. Our masonry contractors have the skill and training need to repair and restore fireplaces, backed by 25 years of experience in the field. Even if you are not aware of a specific issue that needs to be addressed, it’s always worth it to schedule a fireplace inspection as a homeowner or a general contractor. An inspection will determine if the fireplace meets appropriate safety standards, while giving us the information we need to move forward. This includes giving you any repair recommendations should we determine a repair is necessary.

• Building materials • Structural integrity
