Creosote doesn’t take days off. If you burn wood, it builds up over time and can become a serious fire hazard. A professional chimney inspection and cleaning can help keep your fireplace burning safely.

See a crack in your chimney and wondering if it is serious? Fair question. Thin cracks in the mortar and light surface spalling are usually routine weathering: they should be repaired because they let water in, but they are not emergencies. The ones to act on quickly are cracks that run continuously through both brick and mortar, often in a stair-step pattern, gaps where the chimney meets the house, and any lean. Those point to movement and do not resolve on their own. The catch is that the two can look alike from the ground, and time is not on the chimney's side. Heat cycling and shifting soil keep working every day, so a crack does not pause while you decide, it widens. Catching it early is what keeps repairs small. Full guide here.

No cap. A chimney cap is one of the easiest ways to help keep rain out and reduce the risk of costly leaks. With all the rain we’ve been getting, now’s a great time to make sure yours is doing its job.

Did you know the soil under your home can crack your chimney? Much of the Hill Country and the New Braunfels-to-San-Antonio corridor sits on expansive clay. That clay swells when it takes on moisture and shrinks when it dries out, and Central Texas gives it plenty of both through wet spells and long dry stretches. All that movement does not stay in the ground. It shifts the foundation of the home, and your chimney, which is heavy and often tied into the foundation, moves right along with it. Soil movement is a leading cause of the most serious chimney cracks here: the ones that run through brick and mortar together, gaps opening at the house, and chimneys that start to lean. We break it down here.
