A spark screen that no longer closes
The mesh curtain across a prefab opening runs on a rod and pulls closed from the sides. Torn mesh, a bent rod or a missing pull leaves gaps at the edges where sparks get out. On these units the screen is a listed part like any other.
We replace the screen or its hardware on fireplaces in Crawford with the maker's parts and check that it meets the opening without gaps. A small job with a written price, and it goes near the top of the list because it protects the floor.
Crawford lies within Nassau County. Crawford sits away from the coastline.

Screens and louvers on an inland unit in Crawford
In Crawford, inland, the metal of a spark screen and its louvers wears from heat and use rather than from salt air. Rods bend, mesh tears and louvers loosen on their clips.
We replace worn screen and louver parts in Crawford with the maker's pieces for your model.
10% off any service booked within 72 hours of inspection
Prefab repairs in Crawford use parts listed for the unit, and they come 10% off.
Surface rust or a perforated firebox
The steel box behind the panels is the fireplace. Surface rust on it can be cleaned once the water that caused it is stopped. Steel with holes rusted in it, an opened seam or a warp has changed the thing that was tested, and no replacement part restores it.
The floor and back of the box are examined with the grate out and the panels lifted where the design allows. The finding is written plainly: sound metal with staining, or a box that has reached the end of its life. That one line decides whether the rest of the estimate is repair or replacement.
Damper parts on a factory-built unit
The damper in a prefab fireplace is built into the unit, with a plate, a frame and a linkage the maker designed. Plates rust to their seats, springs lose tension and linkages break at their pins. Dampers made for masonry throats do not fit these units and are not part of their listing.
We order the damper parts by the model number and fit them so the plate opens fully and closes square. On units where the damper parts are no longer made, we tell you what that means for using the fireplace before anything is ordered.
The air space around the casing
Standoffs built into the frame of a factory-built unit keep framing and finishes at listed distances, and the air spaces around the casing are part of the tested design. Stuffing insulation into those spaces, or moving framing against the unit during a remodel, takes away the cooling the test relied on.
Where we can see around the unit, through a louver, an access panel or the attic above, we check that the standoffs are intact and the spaces are clear. Anything packed into them is written down with where it was found and what it takes to clear it.
Label, panels, pipe and cap, in writing
- Refractory panels ordered by the maker's part number
- Damper plate, frame and linkage worked and repaired with listed parts
- Storm collar and chase top collar reset to the manual
- Circulating air channels and grilles cleaned as the manual allows
Prefab fireplace questions from Crawford
Is the prefab inspection in Crawford free?
Yes. We read the label, check the firebox and follow the pipe as far as we can reach, then leave a written estimate at no charge.
Do you fix the fan on a circulating fireplace?
Yes, with the fan kit parts listed for the model. If the fan needs a new outlet or circuit, an electrician handles that part, and we name it on the estimate.
