Texas Chimney

About Texas Chimney

Texas Chimney serves Houston, TX, with fireplace and chimney work, backed by 11 years in business and a team of four.

It repairs and cleans both fireplaces and chimneys and also handles gas line repair. Fireplace types named are wood-burning, gas with a vent and gas without a vent, in brick, stone or concrete, metal, wood or plaster, on buildings up to three stories.

Houston's mild winters mean fireplaces get only occasional use, which brings its own issues. Birds, squirrels and raccoons may nest in unused chimneys, and the heavy rains and humidity of the Gulf Coast can rust metal chimney caps, dampers and prefabricated fireplace boxes. Many Houston homes have prefabricated metal fireplaces with metal flues, rather than masonry, and their chase covers on top of the chimney can rust and leak. Gas logs need periodic checks of the burner, pilot and gas line connections. A cleaning and inspection before the first cold front is a reasonable habit.

The schedule is Monday through Thursday from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, Friday from 8:00 am to noon and Sunday from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm, with no Saturday hours listed. When you contact Texas Chimney, say what kind of fireplace you have, how often it is used, and any signs of trouble such as water stains, odors or animal noises.
