We inspect first, take photos of what we find, and give you a written estimate before any work starts.
Chimney Repair, Caps and Fireplace Service in McKinney
Most calls we get from McKinney fall into four groups. Here is what each one involves.
Chimney Caps
A missing or rusted cap lets rain, birds and squirrels into the flue. We measure the chimney top and install a cap that fits it, including custom steel caps with spark arrestor mesh for chimneys that a store bought cap does not fit.
Chimney Repair
Cracked crowns, loose brick, worn mortar joints and failing flashing all let water into the chimney. We find where the water is getting in, repair that spot and seal it so the damage does not come back.
Chimney Sweep and Creosote Removal
A basic chimney cleaning with a full inspection is $99. When the flue has glazed or hardened creosote, a regular sweep will not remove it, so we use a creosote treatment or mechanical removal to get the flue back to a safe condition.
Gas and Prefab Fireplace Repair
Many McKinney homes have factory-built or gas fireplaces. We replace cracked firebox panels, pilot assemblies, safety sensors and burners, and we add remote controls to gas fireplaces.
How a McKinney Chimney Job Works
- Call or book online: call (214) 550-3348 and tell us what you see, like water stains, an animal in the flue, a smoke smell or a pilot that will not stay lit.
- Inspection: a chimney inspection is $49. We check the firebox, damper, flue, crown, cap and flashing and photograph every problem.
- Written estimate: you get the photos and a written price. No work starts until you approve it.
- The work: our crew completes the job and shows you the finished result.
Recent Projects in McKinney
A few recent chimney and fireplace projects from McKinney homes.
Custom steel chimney caps
Two McKinney chimneys, one near downtown and one on the west side, did not fit a standard cap. We measured each one and built custom steel caps, one with spark arrestor mesh, to keep out rain and animals.
Birds nesting in the flue
Birds had built a nest inside a chimney in north McKinney. We removed the birds and the nest and swept the chimney so the fireplace was safe to use again.
Hardened creosote removal
A wood-burning flue had heavy, hardened deposits that a normal sweep would not remove. We removed them mechanically and finished with a custom cap on top.
Gas fireplace that would not light
We replaced the pilot assembly with the original manufacturer part and added a remote control, so the fireplace lights every time.
