Start with what you know

Identify whether the appliance burns wood, uses gas, is electric, or is unknown. A realistic flame or masonry surround can be misleading; use the manual or accessible model label where available.

Photograph safely

Photograph the whole opening, exterior controls, and any label visible without opening or removing a component. Leave panels, glass, guards, wiring, and gas connections untouched.

Your home in Texas.

A fireplace used only now and then tends to announce problems through odors, animals in the flue, or a gas appliance that will not start. Texas Chimney Pros confirms the fireplace type, checks the cap and flue, and ties each recommended repair to a documented finding.

Keep uncertainty visible

If you cannot identify the system, choose 'Not sure' in the request form. A professional can determine the appropriate service scope before repair work begins.
