Beck’s Chimney & Fireplace Services
Here’s a quick breakdown of all we have to offer:
- Chimney Sweeping: Soot, creosote, and debris is bound to build up in your chimney over time. Clearing all this buildup out on a regular basis is essential for maintaining proper airflow and reducing the risk of chimney fires.
- Chimney Inspection: A chimney inspection involves a thorough examination of the chimney’s interior and exterior. This allows us to assess its condition and identify any issues or safety hazards.
- Chimney Repairs: Chimney repairs encompass a range of services aimed at fixing damaged or deteriorating chimney components. We offer damper repair, masonry repair, smoke chamber parging, relining services, and more!
- Gas Fireplace Service: Gas fireplace servicing involves inspecting, cleaning, and maintaining gas-powered fireplaces. This may include cleaning the burner, checking for gas leaks, inspecting the venting system, and more.
- Gas Fireplace Repair: Just like we can repair your masonry chimney, we can also service and repair your gas fireplace. And if it’s a boost of efficiency you’re after, be sure to ask about your gas fireplace blowers.
- Dryer Vent Services: A faulty dryer vent can increase your risk of experiencing inefficiency, gas leaks, fire hazards, and more. Count on us for dryer vent repair, dryer vent rerouting, dryer vent extensions, and dryer vent installation.
- Dryer Vent Cleaning: What’s the best way to keep your dryer running well – and your home safer – year after year? Book annual dryer vent cleaning services with our experts. We’ve got the tools and knowledge to get the job done right.
More On Our Chimney & Fireplace Repair Services
Looking for more specifics on what type of chimney and fireplace repairs we can complete for your home in Westfield, Noblesville, and beyond? No problem.
- Chimney Leak Repair: Water is your chimney’s number one enemy, but no worries…our chimney leak repair services are exhaustive. Count on us for chimney waterproofing, chimney cap repair/installation, chimney crown repair, and chase cover installation.
- Chimney Damper Repair: Your damper helps control airflow in the chimney, ensuring smoke can effectively escape when necessary – and that things seal up tight when a fire isn’t lit. Damper repair may be necessary if the damper is stuck, damaged, or not functioning properly.
- Fireback Repair & Installs: Firebacks are metal plates placed at the back of a fireplace to protect the masonry and reflect heat into the room. They can enhance fireplace efficiency and durability while adding decorative flair. Count on us for installation and repair.
- Masonry/Exterior Brick Repair: We can restore your chimney masonry, so that it looks like new and keeps your flue protected. Masonry repair may involve repairing or replacing damaged bricks, tuckpointing, crown rebuilds, and more.
- Firebox Repair: Your firebox takes on a lot of heat! Repair work often consists of things like repairing cracks, replacing damaged firebrick, or restoring the firebox’s insulation.
- Chimney Relining: Chimney relining is the process of installing a new liner inside the chimney to protect against heat and corrosion, improve draft, and enhance safety. We offer stainless steel liners or HeatShield® resurfacing services.
- Smoke Chamber Parging: By applying a layer of mortar or refractory cement to smooth and insulate the smoke chamber, you can improve draft and reduce the risk of chimney fires.
What are the Most Common Signs of Chimney Damage?
Leaky chimneys, crumbling chimneys, poorly drafting chimneys… We’ve seen it all and fixed it all here in the Noblesville area. Because of our training and experience, our team is equipped to handle both minor and major repairs…but it’s always best to catch things early on.
Unfortunately, chimney repair needs aren’t always obvious and many homeowners don’t catch them until the damage is extensive. So what should you be looking for? How do you know if you need chimney repairs?
These are some of the most common signs of damage:
- Masonry deterioration and staining: When you spot flaking brick, crumbling mortar joints, staining, or any other abnormal qualities on the exterior of your chimney, it’s time to schedule repairs. White stains, spalling brick, and eroding mortar joints are all signs of a chimney leak – and chimney leaks never get better on their own.
- Rust anywhere: Whether you see rust running down the sides of your chimney, up near your chimney cap or chase cover, on your flashing, or in your firebox, you’ve got a water problem and repairs need to be made.
- Firebox deterioration: Cracks or crumbling areas in your firebox indicate damage from moisture or heat. Whatever is causing the problem, you need to address it. Otherwise, you’ll be at higher risk of fire or carbon monoxide exposure when you use your fireplace.
- Smoke: Smoky fireplaces aren’t normal, so if your fireplace is smoking a lot, something needs to be fixed. It could be that you have a draft problem or a flue blockage.
- Foul odors: Stinky fireplaces aren’t normal either. Typically, bad odors in the fireplace are caused by creosote buildup or nesting animals. If it’s animals, you may need to have repairs made before having a new chimney cap installed.
