Wekiwa Springs has a specific problem other nearby cities don’t share at the same scale: homes built from the 1970s through the 1990s often run gas fireplaces through original prefabricated metal chimneys that were never designed to last this long. Humidity from the Wekiva River basin accelerates rust, and cool winter nights mean these units actually get used. That combination means we see flue liner failures here more often than almost anywhere else we work.

Why Hadley Chimney Orlando Is Wekiwa Springs’s Preferred Gas Fireplace Repair Company

Founded in 2003, Hadley Chimney Orlando has spent more than two decades working on exactly the kind of chimneys Wekiwa Springs homes have: original prefab metal units from the 1970s, 80s, and 90s with rust-prone liners and dampers that seize in the humid air. Cory Mitchell leads our team, and the standard he sets is simple: every repair gets a written price before work starts, a written guarantee, and photo documentation of what we actually did. No exceptions.

Homeowners off Wekiva Springs Road, in the neighborhoods around Sweetwater West and the older sections near the state park, call us because we show what’s inside the flue before recommending anything. If the liner is fine, we say so. If it’s rusted through, you’ll see the camera footage yourself. That’s the Relay Visibility Guarantee: live arrival tracking, before-and-after photos, and digital invoicing on every job. Part of the Relay Home Co. family, we’re held to The Relay Standard on every visit.

Our Gas Fireplace Repair Services in Wekiwa Springs

Flue Liner Inspection and Relining

The humid subtropical climate in Wekiwa Springs means moisture sits inside metal flues longer than it does in drier parts of the state. Over years, that moisture corrodes the thin metal liner inside your prefab chimney. We scope every liner with a camera before recommending relining, and if the metal is gone, you’ll see the holes with your own eyes. We reline with HeatShield ceramic compound or DuraFlex flexible liner systems, both built for gas exhaust.

Damper Repair and Replacement

Dampers in Wekiwa Springs homes seize up from rust, often locking partially open. That lets conditioned air escape in summer and can allow exhaust to backdraft into the living space in winter. We repair or replace the damper assembly and show you the old part before we install anything. It’s a $150 – $350 job in most cases here, and we carry common replacement parts for the prefab brands found throughout this area.

Chimney Cap Installation

Rain and humidity from storms rolling through the Wekiva basin get into flues through missing or corroded caps. A proper chimney cap keeps water out, blocks debris, and still vents exhaust correctly. If your cap is missing or rusted through, we install Copperfield or Olympia Chimney caps sized to your existing prefab system. This is one of the cheapest repairs that prevents the most expensive problems later.

Gas Log Set and Burner Service

Vented gas logs in Wekiwa Springs homes sit in fireboxes that were originally built for wood. The transition from wood to gas leaves behind creosote, the flammable tar residue from old wood fires. When the gas burner heats that residue, it melts and can block the flue. We clean the firebox, check the burner ports, and verify the gas valve and thermocouple are operating correctly. If the burner is shot, we source replacements through trade suppliers, not big-box clearance aisles.

Trusted Brands We Service in Wekiwa Springs

We work on gas fireplaces and chimneys built with parts from the brands contractors actually used in this area: Olympia Chimney, Famco, Copperfield, and DuraFlex. Because so many Wekiwa Springs homes have original prefab systems from the 70s through the 90s, we keep common replacement components on our trucks. That means fewer return trips and faster turnaround. When a part isn’t on the truck, we get it sourced through established trade channels, not whatever’s cheapest online.

Common Gas Fireplace Repair Problems We See in Wekiwa Springs Homes

• Rusted-out prefab metal flue liners. Original liners in 1970s – 1990s chimneys corrode from humidity, causing gas exhaust leaks and poor draft. Most homeowners never know until we scope it.
• Corroded dampers that seize open or closed. This leads to conditioned air loss during Wekiwa Springs summers or backdrafting gas fumes into the home during winter cold snaps.
• Creosote tar glaze left from old wood burning. When a gas insert is installed in a firebox that previously burned wood, leftover creosote melts and blocks the flue. We clean it out before it becomes a fire hazard.
• Cracked crowns and failed flashing from moisture intrusion. Humidity-driven water damage around the firebox shows up as rust streaks, staining, and in severe cases, structural rot around the chase top.
