About Austin fireplace work
Why custom-home and remodel work in Austin
matters to us.
Austin custom builds lean modern. Concrete, steel, and clean-lined limestone are everywhere, and the fireplace usually has to match. Our welding shop and stainless capability fit that aesthetic better than most traditional fireplace contractors.
We have worked on homes across Austin neighborhoods including Tarrytown, Westlake, Travis Heights, Hyde Park, and Barton Hills.

Common questions
Austin fireplace FAQs.
Do you travel to Austin for fireplace work?
Yes. Austin is within our regular Texas service area. We base out of Houston but travel statewide for fireplace installs, swap-outs, and custom builds. For larger jobs in Austin we'll do a free site walk before any quote is finalized.
How long does a typical fireplace install take in Austin?
Most residential fireplace installs run 5 to 10 working days from start to finish, including permitting where required, framing, venting, masonry or surround, gas line, electrical, and finish. Larger custom builds in Austin can run 3 to 6 weeks depending on the scope of trade work involved.
Do you handle the permitting in Austin?
Yes. Fireplace work in Austin that involves new gas lines, structural framing, or chimney construction typically requires permits. We pull the permits, schedule the inspections, and provide the final paperwork at handoff. Our office is in Houston so we're familiar with municipal-code differences across Texas jurisdictions.
Do you work on modern concrete-and-steel Austin homes?
Yes. Modern Austin custom homes often want concrete or limestone fireplaces with linear gas burners and stainless steel surrounds. Our in-house welding shop fabricates the steel components, which most fireplace contractors have to subcontract.
How far is Austin from your Houston shop, practically?
Roughly a 2.5-hour drive. We mobilize for Austin projects with multi-day crews, not day trips. Material runs get bundled into the trip rather than back-and-forth which would eat the margin.
