This project had many things to consider, but after careful planning, it was a breeze. We completely removed a sinking chimney and replaced the hearth that was settling due to the movement of the chimney. This had caused serious structural issues inside the wall. Warped and separated framing was repaired, the fireplace surround was refinished and secured, and a new electric fireplace was installed to bring it all back together.
With past foundation issues already affecting the home, we also replaced damaged vents with new automatic foundation vents, repaired sheetrock, and finished the wall for a clean, solid result.
Projects like this are about more than appearances—they’re about restoring safety, structure, and peace of mind.
