About Houston fireplace work
Why custom-home and remodel work in Houston
matters to us.
Houston sits at the heart of the country's fourth-largest metro and the deepest concentration of custom-home and remodel work in Texas. The mix of older brick ranches needing fireplace updates and new-build luxury homes that want statement pieces makes it our home market.
We have worked on homes across Houston neighborhoods including Memorial, River Oaks, The Heights, Bellaire, and Tanglewood.

Common questions
Houston fireplace FAQs.
Do you travel to Houston for fireplace work?
Yes. Houston 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 Houston we'll do a free site walk before any quote is finalized.
How long does a typical fireplace install take in Houston?
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 Houston can run 3 to 6 weeks depending on the scope of trade work involved.
Do you handle the permitting in Houston?
Yes. Fireplace work in Houston 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 handle Houston historic-district fireplace work?
Yes. Houston historic districts like The Heights have specific masonry restoration and chimney code requirements. Our masonry crew handles tuckpointing, full chimney rebuilds, and period-appropriate surround work that satisfies HDC review where applicable.
Can you build an outdoor fireplace for a Houston home that handles humidity?
Yes, and the build choices matter. Houston humidity destroys low-grade masonry and rusts out coated steel within a few years. We build outdoor units with stainless components where exposure warrants it and proper drainage detail to keep moisture out of the firebox.
