Most Scurry 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.

A fireplace in Scurry 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 Scurry 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 Scurry 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.
Patios in Scurry 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.
Plenty of Scurry 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.
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 Kaufman County is booked solid. A service visit ahead of the freeze beats an emergency call during it.
Once a year, even with light use. In Scurry, 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.
Yes. Gas inserts and log sets go into existing fireboxes and are the most common conversion in newer Scurry 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.
