We recommend scheduling mortar joint repointing annually to maintain the structural integrity of your chimney and safeguard your home.

At Lone Star Chimney, our technicians utilize advanced cameras and technology to detect any damage in your flue liner, such as holes or tears. By identifying issues early, we can perform targeted repairs to extend the lifespan of your flue liner and ensure continued safety. However, if your chimney requires a full flue liner replacement, our experts are equipped to handle that, too. With our comprehensive range of fireplace repair services, you can trust Lone Star Chimney to address any issue and keep your fireplace operating safely and efficiently.
Spalling Bricks Repair
Spalling occurs when chimney bricks begin to flake, chip, or crumble, posing a risk to your chimney’s structural integrity. Left unaddressed, spalling bricks can lead to weakening, shifting, or even collapse of the chimney. Repairing spalling bricks is crucial for maintaining the safety and stability of your fireplace. If you notice any signs of chipping, cracking, or shifting bricks in your chimney, don’t hesitate to contact us immediately. Our expert technicians at Lone Star Chimney are equipped to assess and repair spalling bricks promptly, ensuring the longevity and safety of your chimney.
Chimney Leak Repair
Water intrusion into your chimney can lead to various issues, including mold, mildew, cracked bricks, damaged flue liners, and even deterioration of the firebox if the leak reaches that far down the chimney.
While it might not seem like a typical fireplace repair service, addressing chimney leaks is essential for ensuring the safe operation of your fireplace. Our skilled technicians at Lone Star Chimney understand that any issue affecting the functionality or safety of your fireplace falls under our expertise.

Frequently Asked Questions
Before exploring common questions about chimney sweep services, it’s important to recognize their crucial role in maintaining chimney safety and functionality. Chimney sweeps are skilled professionals trained to inspect, clean, and repair chimneys, ensuring they operate efficiently and safely.
Why is fireplace cleaning considered essential for fireplace repair?
Fireplace cleaning is considered essential for fireplace repair because it helps maintain the safety, efficiency, and functionality of the fireplace. Over time, creosote buildup, glaze, obstructions, soot, and ash can accumulate in the chimney, posing fire hazards and impairing chimney performance. Regularly cleaning the fireplace can address these issues before they escalate into more significant problems, such as chimney fires or structural damage. A clean fireplace ensures proper airflow, reduces the risk of obstructions, and enhances the overall performance of the chimney system. Therefore, fireplace cleaning is a crucial component of fireplace repair to ensure the safety and longevity of the fireplace.
What is a common problem with fireplaces?
Creosote buildup. A common problem with fireplaces is the buildup of creosote, a flammable residue produced when certain fuels burn. As creosote travels up the chimney, it accumulates on the walls of the flue. Over time, this buildup can become a fire hazard, increasing the risk of chimney fires. Additionally, creosote buildup can restrict airflow and cause dangerous fumes to enter the home, posing a threat to occupants’ health and safety. Regular chimney cleaning and maintenance are essential to address creosote buildup and ensure the safe and efficient operation of the fireplace.
Why are people getting rid of fireplaces?
Starting a wood fire requires patience and time. Due to this, people are opting to remove traditional wood-burning fireplaces and switch to gas fireplaces for their convenience. For more info, contact Lone Star Chimney.
What is damper restoration?
The damper plays a crucial role in fireplace functionality by regulating airflow through the chimney. When the damper is rusted, stuck, damaged, or broken, it hinders proper chimney ventilation, potentially leading to increased fire risk and smoke entering the home. A damaged damper can also disrupt fireplace ventilation, impacting indoor air quality. Ensuring the damper is in good condition is vital for safe and efficient fireplace operation.
