Detailed Warranty Coverage Matrix

We specify exact coverage parameters, wind resistance ratings, and local application criteria for all chimney and fireplace services.

Comprehensive Warranty Terms & Conditions

1. Lifetime Stainless Steel Flue Relining Guarantee

Our chimney liners and flue repair services, including chimney stainless steel liners repair and chimney clay flue repair, carry a Lifetime Limited Warranty.

• What is Covered: Thermal cracking, stress fracturing, structural collapse, and material manufacturing defects under standard operational use.
• Requirements: Homeowners must schedule an annual chimney inspections or chimney level 2 inspection to verify flue integrity and clear residual creosote build-up.

2. Five-Year Structural Masonry & Rebuilding Protection

Due to Central Texas’s extreme climate shift—where summer temperatures exceed 105°F followed by winter freeze cycles—brick and mortar undergo intense thermal stress. Our structural chimney masonry repair, brick masonary repair, chimney crown repair, firebox repair, and chimney rebuilding are guaranteed for 5 years.

• What is Covered: Mortar joint separation, crown crumbling, refractory brick cracking, and structural sealant failure.
• Requirements: Application of a breathable hydrophobic water sealant every 3 years on exposed external brickwork.

3. Three-Year Flashing & Water Intrusion Guarantee

Water penetration causes over 80% of structural fireplace failures. Our chimney leak repair, chimney flashing repair, chimney leak detection, and chimney water damage repair services are backed by a 3-year complete leak-free guarantee.

• What is Covered: Water infiltration through counter-flashing, polymer base sealants, base aprons, and step-flashings installed by our team.

4. 30-Day Clean Guarantee on Sweeping & Maintenance

We back all routine chimney sweeping, chimney creosote removal, and fireplace cleaning services with a 30-day clean guarantee.

• What is Covered: Unresolved soot accumulation, persistent drafting odors, or residual Stage 1-3 creosote. If draft issues or soot odors persist under normal operating conditions within 30 days, our team will re-evaluate and re-sweep the system at zero charge to you.

General Exclusions & Owner Responsibilities

To maintain active status on all written guarantees, homeowners must adhere to the following maintenance standards:

• Annual Inspections: System must undergo an annual NFPA Level 1 inspection by a certified technician.
• Proper Fuel Usage: Burn seasoned hardwoods only. Burning trash, pressure-treated lumber, plastics, or high-resin pine voids flue liner and firebox guarantees.
• Structural Clearance: Maintain a minimum 10-foot tree branch clearance surrounding the top of the chimney stack to prevent limb impacts.
• Uncovered Events: Warranties do not cover damage resulting from major foundation settling, direct severe storm impacts (falling trees, lightning strikes), unvented third-party appliance installations, or modifications made by uncertified contractors.
