Fast, Reliable Fireplace Services Across The Acreage
Most fireplace repair in The Acreage runs $180-$650 depending on whether you need a damper adjustment, firebox re-pointing, or a full gas valve replacement, and our technicians can usually be on your property the same day you call. We know the 33412 zip well - the winding roads off 60th Street North, the older subdivisions near The Acreage Community Park, and the newer builds closer to Orange Boulevard - so we don’t waste time getting lost or guessing which turnoff leads to your driveway.
We’ve been answering calls with a live person, 24 hours a day, for over 12 years. That hasn’t changed since we started serving The Acreage regularly in the early 2000s, when the last big wave of 1-acre homes went in and builders were still slapping wood-burning fireplaces into every floor plan as a standard feature, even though the owners would rarely light them. We understand that rhythm. You don’t need a hard sell. You need someone who shows up when they say, tells you exactly what’s wrong, and fixes it so you don’t have to think about it again until the next cold front blows through. Call (844) 803-1545 and you’ll reach a real person, any hour.

Why Hearthstone Chimney Co. Is The Acreage’s Preferred Fireplace Services Company
The Acreage isn’t like Royal Palm Beach or Wellington. Your lots are bigger, your trees are thicker, and your fireplace has probably spent eleven months of every year doing absolutely nothing. We’ve earned our reputation here by understanding that reality instead of pretending every chimney needs the same treatment.
Our Fireplace Services team has completed hundreds of jobs in The Acreage specifically. Homeowners near Seminole Pratt Whitney Road tell us they appreciate that we document everything - photos of the flue interior, a plain-English verdict on what’s actually broken, and an upfront price before any work starts. The number on the estimate is the number on the invoice.
We typically reach homes in The Acreage within 45-90 minutes of dispatch, faster than we can get to some denser areas because your roads, while rural, don’t trap us in subdivision traffic. Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and carry the professional-grade materials to complete most repairs in a single visit - no return trip, no waiting on parts we should have stocked.
Every job is backed by our 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If it’s not right, we come back. No paperwork to dig up, no arguing. That’s the Keystone Standard we’ve operated under since 1984.
Our Fireplace Services in The Acreage
Gas Fireplace Service
Gas fireplaces in The Acreage homes often sit dormant so long that spiders clog the pilot orifice and humidity corrodes the thermopile. A typical gas fireplace service here - burner cleaning, pilot adjustment, safety check, and gas leak test - runs $189-$275. We service HeatShield and Olympia Chimney components commonly found in the zero-clearance units installed during the 1990s building boom near 60th Street North. If the gas valve itself has failed, replacement with professional-grade parts pushes the repair to $340-$520, but we’ll tell you that before we touch a wrench.
Wood Burning Fireplace
Your wood-burning fireplace in The Acreage probably hasn’t seen a log since the last hard freeze. That’s normal here. But idle masonry absorbs our brutal summer humidity, and the crown cracks, and the next thing you know water’s weeping down the back wall of the firebox during a July thunderstorm. We inspect with a Level-2 camera, show you the photos, and explain whether you need minor tuckpointing ($280-$450) or more extensive firebox rebuilding. Because creosote buildup is minimal in The Acreage, we don’t upsell our Chimney Cleaning & Sweep in The Acreage unless you actually need it.
Fireplace Insert
When the original masonry fireplace in your 1980s or 1990s Acreage home has deteriorated past practical repair, a fireplace insert installed into the existing opening can restore function without rebuilding from scratch. Inserts we install using Gelco and Famco components typically run $1,800-$3,400 including proper venting and surround finish, with most installations completed in one day. We measure carefully - those builder-era firebox dimensions in The Acreage homes vary more than you’d expect, and a sloppy fit means drafts and poor draft performance you’ll regret every January.
Damper Repair
A stuck or rusted damper is one of the most common calls we get from The Acreage homeowners who finally try to use their fireplace and discover it won’t open, or won’t stay open, or whistles like a train when closed. The cause is almost always corrosion from years of humid air sitting in an unventilated flue. Chimney Repair in The Acreage for a stuck or rusted damper typically runs $220-$380 for most standard throat dampers; top-sealing dampers, which we often recommend for The Acreage’s heavily treed environment, run $340-$495 installed. A top-sealing damper also keeps raccoons and opossums out, which matters more here than almost anywhere else in Palm Beach County.
Trusted Brands We Service in The Acreage
We don’t substitute builder-grade parts and hope you don’t notice. Our trucks stock HeatShield refractory mortar for firebox repairs, Gelco chimney caps sized for the common 8″ x 12″ and 13″ x 13″ flue dimensions we see in The Acreage’s 1980s-2000s housing stock, and Olympia Chimney liner components for relining jobs when the original clay tile has cracked from thermal shock or settlement. Using the right material the first time means the repair lasts, and it means we don’t have to come back in six months because a cheap cap blew off during a tropical storm. That’s not a hypothetical - we’ve replaced plenty of thin-gauge caps that couldn’t handle the wind exposure on open Acreage lots.
Common Fireplace Services Problems We See in The Acreage Homes
- Wildlife blockage in idle flues. Because The Acreage lots border conservation land and equestrian properties, raccoons den inside unused chimneys at a rate our technicians describe as far higher than in the denser communities to the east along Southern Boulevard. The first sign is often a foul odor or scratching, or smoke backing up into the living room on that rare night you try to light a fire.
- Water intrusion from crown and flashing failure. With only a handful of genuinely cool nights per year, fireplace use in The Acreage is minimal, so creosote isn’t the real hazard. Instead, year-round high humidity and heavy summer rainfall accelerate mortar joint erosion and crown cracking, letting water run down the flue and stain interior walls.
- Corroded gas components in rarely-used units. The same subtropical climate that makes The Acreage pleasant ten months a year slowly destroys pilot assemblies, thermocouples, and burner ports in gas fireplaces that never dry out completely. We see this constantly in homes near The Acreage Community Park and along the older stretches of 60th Street North.
- Damper seizure from rust and debris. Without regular operation, throat dampers rust in place and become coated with the fine silt and leaf debris that filters down from uncapped or poorly capped flues. Opening requires force that damages the frame; closing never seals properly again.

Pricing for Fireplace Services in The Acreage, FL
We’re plain about what things cost. A typical damper repair in The Acreage runs $220-$380. Firebox tuckpointing or minor refractory panel replacement runs $280-$450. Gas valve or pilot assembly replacement runs $340-$520. Full fireplace insert installation with proper venting runs $1,800-$3,400.

What moves the needle: accessibility (steep roof pitch or limited workspace), the need for custom-fabricated parts for non-standard builder installations, and whether we discover hidden water damage once we open things up. We photograph everything, explain what we found, and give you a firm price before proceeding. No surprises on the bill. Estimates are free. Call (844) 803-1545.
