Cold drafts sneaking in through your fireplace? They’re more than just annoying. They can make your whole house chilly, drive up your heating bill, and even lead to safety problems. Gaps, cracks, and worn-out seals around your fireplace let cold air pour in, forcing your heater to work harder and costing you more money.
At Bob’s Chimney, we find and fix every draft. Our team checks your fireplace carefully to spot where cold air is leaking in. Then, we seal up those spots using high-quality chimney foam, silicone caulk, and the right tools to get the job done right.

Why You Should Not Ignore Fireplace Repairs
A broken or poorly working fireplace can do more than just make your home chilly. It can let dangerous gases like carbon monoxide into your living space. Also, worn parts and poor airflow mean your fireplace won’t heat your home properly, costing you more in energy bills.
When you stay on top of fireplace maintenance, your fireplace runs safer, lasts longer, and keeps your home warm when it matters most.
