Why firebox cracks are not cosmetic
The short version of how we handle it in Roosevelt Estates: The firebox is what keeps fire off the framing. We measure crack width against manufacturer and code limits, replace damaged firebrick with matched units, and re-mortar with high-temp refractory cement rated for the heat. Set back from the open coast near Gaines Park, water management and storm-wind detailing lead the scope here. Whether yours is a waterfront property or set back inland, we spec the parts to that exposure before we write the number down.
