Looking for chimney repair in Houston, TX? Clear Path Chimneys serves Houston and the surrounding Harris County area. Houston's humidity and mostly gas appliances mean the common calls here are rusted caps, moisture, and animal entry — not heavy creosote. Every visit starts with a free inspection and an upfront price on site — no service call fee, and you only pay if you book.

Which fix fits your situation?

If you see cracked or crumbling brick, you need repointing or masonry repair before water spreads behind it.

If water is getting in, it is usually the crown or flashing — a targeted seal. The trade-off is a few-hundred-dollar fix now versus structural water damage later.

If the flue itself is damaged, a reline is the durable fix; we confirm which on a free inspection.

Not sure? Text a photo and a local Houston tech will tell you before any truck rolls.

What we handle

✓ Crown & masonry repair
✓ Repointing & spalling brick
