How expensive is it to repair a fireplace damper?

Erin questioned:


Our fireplace damper is broken and will not close. Is this typically an expensive repair? We do use the fireplace frequently in the winter but it is now very drafty even with glass doors closed.

I have a gas fireplace that puts out little heat. Will a firebacker help?

memyselfi questioned:


I was told a firebacker would help radiate heat from the fireplace. Is there anything else that should be done? Are there different quality of firebackers? How will I know if one is excellent quality? Should it be made of cast iron’? Any more suggestions would also be appreciated. (The fireplace is vented with glass doors over the opening.
