When a Hickory Creek fireplace quits, it is rarely mysterious — an idle-season clog, a tired thermocouple, or debris dropped into the flue by the last storm. We show you what failed, fix it with the right part, and leave the unit ready for the next cold snap.

A fireplace in Hickory Creek is not fighting a long winter — it is fighting long hot summers sitting unused, dust and insects in the burner, storm debris, and the occasional hard freeze. This is what we find here, and what we check on every visit.
A gas fireplace in Hickory Creek may not run for eight months, and sitting idle is hard on it. Dust settles deep in the pilot orifice, ignition parts age without ever being tested, and the unit fails on the first cool night. An annual service before the season fixes the small causes early.
Most winters here are mild, which is exactly why a hard freeze catches Hickory Creek homes off guard. Poorly protected installs and tired valves fail when the unit is needed most, and a fireplace that has not been serviced in years rarely survives the coldest week. A fall inspection finds the weak points first.
Storm season drops limbs, leaves and roofing debris into open flues across Denton County, and strong wind over the roof can reverse a marginal draft and push smoke back into the room. We clear blockages, check the cap, and diagnose downdrafts by cause instead of guessing at parts.
In growing areas around Hickory Creek, red dirt and construction dust get everywhere — including inside burner compartments and pilot assemblies. Fine dust clogs orifices, coats sensors and makes flames lazy and yellow. A proper cleaning clears the burner, pilot and sensors, and restores a clean, steady flame pattern.

Sitting idle is the most common cause we find in Hickory Creek. Dust clogs the tiny pilot orifice, insects nest in the burner ports, and a thermocouple that was already tired gives up over the off months. Usually it is one small part or a thorough cleaning — a tech traces the exact cause on the spot.
Yes — outdoor fireplaces and fire pits are one of the most common installs we do in Hickory Creek. We handle sizing, placement, venting where it applies, gas and electric runs, and finishing, with one crew from start to first fire. Start with a free estimate and we will walk the space with you.
Yes. Gas inserts and log sets go into existing fireboxes and are the most common conversion in newer Hickory Creek homes — sealed, remote-lit and far easier to live with than hauling wood. We measure your firebox, check the flue and venting, and walk through the options on a free estimate before any work starts.
Leave the fireplace off, and if the smell is strong, leave the house and call your gas utility or 911 first. Once it is safe, call us. A faint odor at startup can be a delayed ignition, but it can also be a leaking valve or connector, and that gets fixed before the fireplace is used again.
Very likely the chimney, yes. A cracked crown, softened mortar joints or failed flashing lets storm rain into limestone and brick masonry, and it shows up as staining, peeling or a musty smell indoors. We trace the entry point from the top down and repair the actual source, not just the stain.
No — and be wary of anyone who does. Every fireplace fails differently, so a phone price is a guess that changes at your door. Our estimates are free: a tech looks at the actual problem, then gives you one clear price before any work starts.
