When a Point Venture 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 Point Venture 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.
Most winters here are mild, which is exactly why a hard freeze catches Point Venture 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.
Limestone and brick chimneys are common across Point Venture, and both take heat, sun and driving rain year after year. Mortar joints soften, crowns crack, and water starts working into the masonry. We check the crown, joints and flashing on every inspection, not just the firebox inside.
Long hot summers dry out door gaskets and bake mineral film onto gas fireplace glass in Point Venture. A tired gasket leaks exhaust past the door, and fogged glass only gets worse the longer it sits. We strip the film, test the seal, and replace gaskets before they become a safety issue.
Plenty of Point Venture buyers inherit a gas fireplace they know nothing about — no service history, no idea when it last ran safely. New construction is no guarantee either, with dust left in burners from the build. An inspection before the first fire tells you exactly what you have.

Same-day service, free estimates, licensed & insured — and a fireplace that lights when you click the remote.
Sitting idle is the most common cause we find in Point Venture. 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, do not keep trying to light it. Nest material blocks burner ports and pilot openings, which distorts the flame, delays ignition and can leave unburned gas in the firebox. We shut the unit down, clear the nesting safely, clean the ports and pilot, then test-fire it before it goes back into service.
If your fireplace has been serviced, a freeze is when it earns its keep. If it has not run in months, test it before the cold arrives — idle units often fail on the coldest night, when every company in Travis County is booked solid. A service visit ahead of the freeze beats an emergency call during it.
Yes. Gas inserts and log sets go into existing fireboxes and are the most common conversion in newer Point Venture 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.
Usually not. Remotes fail from dead batteries, a receiver that lost its pairing, or a worn wall switch, and all three are quick diagnoses. If the remote system checks out, the fault sits in the valve or ignition, and we trace it in the same visit and replace only the part that failed.
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.
