Chimney Sweep & Fireplace Repair Services in Grand Prairie, TX

Grand Prairie is centrally located, filled with great people, and is home to over 5,000 acres of parks and recreational areas. There’s no doubt that people are drawn to this city — it grows more populated with every passing year! Yet, despite it’s large size, it still maintains that small-town atmosphere that many families seek. Grand Prairie has it all.

Lone Star Park, Uptown Theater, and the Ripley’s Believe It Or Not Museum are just some of the many places you could visit for a full day of family fun. You’ll also want to check out the long list of community events that occur regularly throughout the year. Keeping your loved ones entertained is never a problem in Grand Prairie.

If you’re ready to spend your day out and about, it’s important that you have a comfortable spot to relax at the end of it all. Why not install a new set of gas logs or a new fireplace system? We can install your new appliance, then perform regular maintenance for years of satisfaction and comfort! We also sell and install just about anything you could need for your chimney and fireplace, including chimney caps, damper caps, custom chase covers, draft fans, fireplace tools and accessories, and glass doors. Whatever you need, we’ve got it.

We Offer Dryer Vent Cleaning Too

But we don’t just work on fireplaces and chimneys! We also clean dryer vents, and install dryer boxes as well! Many homeowners underestimate the importance of dryer vent cleaning, which is why we’re here to keep you educated. Clogged venting systems are responsible for thousands of home fires throughout the US every single year, and they can cause harmful toxins to back up into your home, too! Keep your home safer by trusting us to check things out and clean things out.

Signs That Your Chimney Needs Rebuilding

There are many reasons that a chimney may require rebuilding, including age, weathering, poor maintenance, and other environmental factors. As a homeowner, here are some signs that indicate yours may be due for some structural changes:

• Visible damage. If you notice visible damage on the chimney’s exterior, such as cracks, holes, or missing bricks, it’s a clear indication that the chimney needs repairs or rebuilding. Such damage can be caused by severe weather, settling of the foundation, or just natural wear and tear.
• Crumbling bricks or mortar joints. Crumbling or missing bricks, as well as deteriorating mortar joints, are signs of chimney damage that may require a rebuild. When the mortar joints erode, bricks start to loosen and eventually fall out, leading to structural instability.
• Leaks and water damage. If you notice water stains or dampness around the chimney or in the attic, it could be a sign of leaks caused by chimney damage. Water infiltration can damage the chimney’s masonry and even cause mold growth, posing health risks to your family.
• Smoke and draft problems. If you experience smoke or draft problems when using your fireplace, it could indicate chimney damage that requires rebuilding. Cracks and gaps in the chimney’s flue can prevent smoke from escaping, leading to a buildup of harmful gases, like carbon monoxide.
• Chimney fires. Chimney fires can cause severe damage to the chimney’s interior and exterior, requiring a rebuild when all is said and done. If you experience a chimney fire or hear loud cracking or popping noises coming from the chimney, it’s a clear indication that the chimney needs professional attention.

What are the costs of rebuilding a chimney?

Rebuilding a chimney can be a significant investment, and the cost varies depending on several factors. While a costly investment is never ideal when it comes to home improvements or repairs, rebuilding your chimney is definitely not an area to skimp on, or a job to trust to a local handyman. Considerations and factors that impact the cost to rebuild a chimney, include:

• Height of the chimney
• Location
• Accessibility
• Extent of the damage
• Type of materials used
• Labor costs
• Local building codes
