Most Roanoke fireplaces are gas, and most sit idle through a long, hot summer. Then the first cool front arrives and the pilot will not light. Our techs diagnose yours on the spot, fix it with real parts, and leave it lighting first try.
Repair, cleaning, inspection, installation and maintenance — the full fireplace service list for Roanoke, with the same crew and the same free estimates.
RepairFireplace Repair
Any fireplace, any failure — diagnosed first, then fixed with the right parts. In Roanoke that usually means an ignition system that sat idle through a long summer, or a burner insects moved into.
Gas units dominate newer Roanoke homes — this is the call we run most in Denton County. Pilot that won't stay lit, dead remote, weak or lazy flame: gas systems diagnosed safely and repaired to code.
Soot, dust and that stale closed-up smell removed from the firebox, glass and burner — the clean a fireplace needs after months of heat, dust and insects working on it while it sat.
Firebox, flue, venting and controls checked end to end, with a plain-language report. The right call before the first cold front — or before lighting a fireplace that is new to you.
A new gas fireplace or an outdoor fire feature, done right: sizing, venting, gas and electric runs, finishing — one crew, start to first fire. New builds and renovations across Roanoke are where most of our new units land.
The annual service that keeps a Roanoke gas fireplace lighting first try: full clean, burner and pilot service, safety sensors tested, and a test fire before we leave. Built for Roanoke's pattern: long idle summers, then wanted on the first cold night.
Need something else — a damper, a blower, a smoke problem, a bird in the flue? We cover all 27 fireplace specialties. Call (888) 257-9181 and describe it.
Local conditions
Roanoke fireplaces have Roanoke problems
A fireplace in Roanoke 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.
Limestone and brick masonry
Limestone and brick chimneys are common across Roanoke, 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.
Outdoor living is a second living room
Patios in Roanoke run for much of the year, and outdoor fireplaces and fire pits are a major part of that life. Outdoor burners take sun, rain and dust directly, so igniters corrode and valves stiffen faster outdoors. We install, service and repair outdoor features as a specialty, not an afterthought.
Red dirt and construction dust
In growing areas around Roanoke, 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.
Heat-aged glass and gaskets
Long hot summers dry out door gaskets and bake mineral film onto gas fireplace glass in Roanoke. 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.

Cold fireplace? Warm answer.
Same-day service, free estimates, licensed & insured — and a fireplace that lights when you click the remote.
A hard freeze is coming — should I worry about my fireplace?+
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 Denton County is booked solid. A service visit ahead of the freeze beats an emergency call during it.
How often does a Roanoke fireplace need service if we barely use it?+
Once a year, even with light use. In Roanoke, an unused gas fireplace still collects dust, insects and heat-aged gaskets, and the first cold front is when neglected units fail. Book the annual service in the fall, before the first front, and the unit should light first try all season.
Can you convert my wood fireplace to gas, or add a gas insert?+
Yes. Gas inserts and log sets go into existing fireboxes and are the most common conversion in newer Roanoke 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.
My fireplace remote stopped working — is that a big repair?+
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.
Water is staining the wall or ceiling near my chimney — is that the fireplace?+
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.
Do you give prices over the phone?+
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.
