Family-Owned & Local

A local Florida team that treats your home like our own and stands behind the work.

Older homes in Buenaventura Lakes, particularly those from the community's earlier development decades near Kissimmee, sometimes have a fireplace that's been neglected for years, painted over, or damaged by past water intrusion. Restoring one of these back to a usable, attractive centerpiece is a different job than a routine repair, since it usually involves addressing both the appearance and the underlying function at the same time.

Why Buenaventura Lakes Homes Need Fireplace Restoration

Long periods without use in Central Florida's humid climate tend to leave these older fireboxes with deteriorated mortar, stained or spalling brick, and hardware that's rusted solid, on top of whatever cosmetic changes previous owners made over the years. By the time a homeowner is ready to bring the fireplace back into use, there's often more going on beneath the surface than a fresh coat of paint would fix.

We assess the full scope first, structural condition, firebox integrity, damper function, and chimney connection, before touching anything cosmetic, since restoring the look of a fireplace that isn't safe to use doesn't do anyone any favors. From there we handle masonry repair, refacing, and hardware replacement as needed, working to bring back a fireplace that's both functional and something you'd actually want as a focal point in the room.

Restoration projects take patience and a real conversation about what's achievable, and Buenaventura Lakes homeowners tell us they value that our family-owned team won't cut corners just to finish faster. We'll walk through the project with you and provide a detailed written estimate before starting. Reach out and we can schedule a time to take a look.

Fireplace Restoration in Buenaventura Lakes — Common Questions

What does fireplace restoration involve?

It depends on the fireplace, but typically a deep clean, repairs to the firebox and damper, a refresh of the surround and hearth, and a safety check so it's ready to use. We assess yours and tell you what it actually needs.

Can a really old, neglected fireplace be restored?

Often, yes. Many fireplaces that look beyond help just need a thorough clean, some repair work, and a surface refresh. We'll take a look and tell you honestly whether restoration makes sense for yours.

Will restoration make my fireplace safe to use?

That's a core part of it. Beyond the cosmetic refresh, we repair the function and confirm the fireplace is sound before we call it done — so you can actually light it, not just look at it.

Do you serve Buenaventura Lakes and the surrounding area?

Yes — Chimney Brothers Co is a local, family-owned team serving Buenaventura Lakes and the rest of Osceola County. Call (645) 224-9996 and we'll confirm we cover your ZIP and set a time that works.

How much does fireplace restoration cost in Buenaventura Lakes?

Restoration is priced by component: firebox mortar and refractory work runs $200–$600, crown repair or rebuild $200–$800, and a full firebox or liner repair $1,000–$3,500 or more. What a specific Buenaventura Lakes job costs comes down to the appliance type and age, parts availability, and the condition of the firebox and venting, so we give a free on-site estimate with upfront pricing before any work begins. See the full cost breakdown.

Do the chimney reinforcing and anchor-strap rules in the residential code apply in Florida?

Not by default. The prescriptive chimney reinforcement and anchorage provisions in Florida Building Code, Residential sections R1003.3 and R1003.4 (the vertical bars, the ties, and the two 3/16-inch by 1-inch anchor straps at each floor, ceiling or roof line more than 6 feet above grade) are triggered by Seismic Design Categories D0, D1 and D2, which are high-seismicity classifications. Florida chimneys are instead governed by the wind provisions, and the 8th Edition (2023) Florida Building Code, effective December 31, 2023, references ASCE 7-22 for wind loads. Practically, that means a Florida chimney's structural demand is lateral wind pressure on a tall masonry cantilever, not ground shaking. Source: Florida Building Code, Residential sections R1003.3 and R1003.4; Florida Building Code 8th Edition (2023) effective dates and ASCE 7-22 reference

How much clearance to combustibles does a masonry chimney and fireplace need?

A masonry chimney inside the building or within an exterior wall needs a minimum 2-inch airspace clearance to combustibles, and a chimney located entirely outside the exterior walls needs a minimum 1 inch, per IRC section R1003.18. For the fireplace itself, IRC section R1001.11 requires combustible material to be kept 2 inches from the front and sides and 4 inches from the back of a masonry fireplace. Combustible trim within 6 inches of the fireplace opening is limited to a projection of 1/8 inch for each 1 inch of distance from the opening. Framing, insulation or shelving packed tight against a chimney is one of the most common clearance violations found on a Level 2 inspection.
