Smoke filling the room

Smoke filling a room or the house means everyone goes outside first, and 911 is called from the yard. Smoke in the house is a fire-department call first, however it started. Nobody goes back inside for windows, pets' bowls or the damper.

Once everyone is safe and the fire department has done its part, the chimney and fireplace need to be checked before they are used again. A blocked flue, a closed damper or damage from heat are the usual causes, and each is found and written down. For that follow-up in Green Cove Springs, call (904) 920-5495; our line is answered 24/7.

Green Cove Springs is an inland community. Clay County Historic Courthouse lies within Green Cove Springs.

Keeping animals out once the flue is clear

Once an animal is out, the flue is checked for nesting material and debris, which can block draft and attract the next visitor. That material is cleared before the fireplace is used.

Then the opening is closed off with a cap and screen sized to the flue tile, so animals cannot get back in while smoke still can get out. Where a cap is missing or damaged, its replacement is priced on the follow-up estimate. The goal is one removal, not a repeat call next season. Any gap an animal used to get in, beside the flue or under the cap, is closed at the same time.

Chase covers torn off in wind

Framed chimney chases around factory-built fireplaces are closed at the top by a metal chase cover. When wind tears it off, rain falls straight into the chase, onto the framing and the metal chimney pipe.

The temporary fix is a secure cover over the chase top, leaving the chimney pipe's own cap in place where it is intact. The permanent fix is a new cover sized to the chase, with a proper slope and drip edge, priced separately. Wet framing inside the chase is noted for inspection once it dries. Where the chase siding has also been damaged, it is covered so rain cannot enter from the side.

The note you get after an emergency visit

No emergency job ends without a written note. It records the findings, the work done, any stopgap left in place and how long that stopgap should last. It also says plainly whether the fireplace can be used.

That note matters for the days that follow. It tells you what to watch, and it gives anyone who works on the chimney later a clear record. Where something could not be reached safely that night, the note says so, along with when we plan to come back for it. Keep the note with the house papers; it is useful when the permanent repair is scheduled.

Before the crew arrives

Do you handle chimney emergencies in Green Cove Springs?

Yes. The line covers Clay County, Green Cove Springs included, 24/7. For smoke, fire or gas, leave the house and reach 911 or the gas company first; after that, ring (904) 920-5495.

Can I use the fireplace after an emergency visit?

The visit note says so in writing. After a fire, storm damage to the flue or a blockage, nothing is burned until the flue is examined and any repair is finished.
