Hadley Chimney Fort Worth has been repairing gas fireplaces across Fort Worth’s older and newer neighborhoods since 2003.

Why Hadley Chimney Fort Worth Is Fort Worth’s Preferred Gas Fireplace Repair Company
Fort Worth homeowners call us because we answer the phone and tell you what’s actually wrong, with pictures. Our techs are background-checked and uniformed, and you’ll get a live arrival window that doesn’t stretch across an afternoon. When we’re done, you’ll have before-and-after photos and a digital invoice you can pay from your phone.
We’ve been doing this since 2003, and a lot of our Fort Worth work comes from referrals in neighborhoods like Arlington Heights, Tanglewood, and TCU’s surrounding blocks. Gas fireplaces here live in all kinds of structures: 1960s brick-veneer ranches, 1990s suburban builds with prefabricated fireboxes, and a few older masonry chimneys with gas log conversions. We service all of them, and we carry parts for the brands that are actually common in Fort Worth, not just what’s cheapest on the truck.
Every repair comes with a written 365-Day Done Right Promise. If a repair fails within that year, we come back and make it right at no charge. That’s a standing commitment, not a line item. We’re part of the Relay Home Co. family and operate under The Relay Visibility Guarantee, which means you get a written price before work begins, live arrival tracking, and photo documentation on every job.
Cory Mitchell leads the crew here, and the standard he holds is simple: show the customer what you found, explain what it means in plain words, and charge the price you quoted. Nothing gets recommended without camera evidence you can look at yourself.

Our Gas Fireplace Repair Services in Fort Worth
Gas Log Set Repair and Burner Cleaning
A gas log set that won’t light or burns with a weak, yellow flame often has a clogged burner port, a failing thermopile, or debris packed into the pilot assembly. In Fort Worth, where summer humidity can introduce corrosion on standing pilots, we regularly pull the logs, clean the burner, check gas pressure, and replace thermocouples or thermopiles. You’ll get photos of the burner before and after.
Damper and Flue Repair
Fort Worth’s severe thunderstorms can drive water down an unprotected flue and seize a damper with rust. We replace top-mount dampers, repair flue liners, and address the water entry point at the crown or cap rather than just lubricating a stuck part and calling it done. If wind-driven rain has been getting in, the photos will show you exactly where.
Gas Valve, Thermocouple, and Pilot Assembly Replacement
When a gas fireplace won’t stay lit, the pilot assembly or gas valve is usually the culprit. We carry replacement valves and pilot assemblies for the brands Fort Worth homes actually have, and we’ll show you the failed part before we replace it. No vague “it needed a new one” without proof.
Chimney Crown, Cap, and Chase Cover Repair
Around Fort Worth, hail and high wind displace chimney caps and crack crowns constantly. A cracked crown lets water run down inside the chase, where it corrodes the gas burner and rots the framing, which often shows up as a ceiling stain. We seal crowns, replace caps with storm collars, and rebuild chase tops when needed. This is the repair that prevents a $2,000 gas valve replacement later.

AfterCommon Gas Fireplace Repair Problems We See in Fort Worth Homes
- Wind-driven rain through a cracked crown. Fort Worth’s spring and summer storms push rain sideways. A cracked crown or shifted cap lets water run down the flue and into the fireplace, rusting the burner and staining the ceiling below. We see this in Wedgwood and Western Hills constantly after hail events.
- The “Fort Worth lean” separating the outer brick from the flue. Expansive blackland prairie clay under slab foundations heaves during drought and rain cycles. That movement can pull the chimney’s outer brick wythe away from the clay tile flue inside, opening a gap that lets combustion gases leak into the wall cavity. A gas fireplace repair call often starts with checking for this lean before we touch the gas train.
- Delayed ignition and gas buildup. A gas log set that clicks several times before lighting is building up gas inside the firebox. We see this on units that sat unused all summer in Fort Worth’s humidity, where the pilot orifice corroded or spider webs blocked the burner tube. This is a repair we flag as urgent, not optional.
- Spalling inside the smoke chamber. Water entry over time breaks down the mortar inside the smoke chamber, leaving flaking debris that falls toward the damper. On gas fireplaces, that debris interferes with venting and can push carbon monoxide back into the room. A camera inspection shows whether this is happening in your chimney.

FAQs – Gas Fireplace Repair in Fort Worth
If the ceiling stain is near the chimney chase, not along a roof edge, the water is most likely entering through a cracked crown, shifted cap, or failed chimney flashing, and a storm was the trigger. A quick check is to look at the ceiling stain’s location: roof leaks from hail usually show up under valleys or eaves, while chimney-driven water stains appear directly next to or below the fireplace. We’ll send a tech out with a camera to find the entry point and show you the photos. Call (682) 900-6393 and we’ll diagnose it before you call a roofer twice.
Walk outside and look at the chimney cap. If it’s tilted, missing, or you can see a gap between the cap and the crown, water has likely been running down the flue all year. Inside, check the firebox for rust on the burner, flaking mortar, or a musty smell, and listen for a clean whoosh when the pilot lights rather than several delayed clicks. If anything seems off, we’ll inspect it before you burn. The free estimate call is (682) 900-6393.
It affects both, because the chimney structure doesn’t care what fuel you burn. The same expansive clay that heaves a slab foundation in Wedgwood or Ridglea also pulls the brick veneer away from the clay tile flue inside the chimney chase. On a gas fireplace, that gap lets combustion gases enter the wall cavity instead of venting up the flue, and the only reliable way to catch it is with a Level 2 camera inspection. We’ve seen that specific failure on gas units multiple times in Fort Worth.
Don’t wait longer than it takes to schedule an inspection. The stain means water has already soaked through enough to reach drywall, which means it’s also been contacting the gas burner, the electrical ignition wiring, and possibly the framing. In Fort Worth’s humid climate, that moisture breeds corrosion and mold fast. Rust on a gas valve or burner can create delayed ignition and gas buildup inside the firebox. We’d rather show up, find it’s minor, and give you peace of mind than have you burning with a corroded gas train.
Yes, and the reason is weather, not creosote. Gas fireplaces don’t produce creosote, but they do produce water vapor that combines with Fort Worth’s freeze-thaw cycles and hail damage to crack crowns, shift caps, and corrode dampers. An annual check catches a displaced cap before a hard rain turns it into a $600 valve replacement. The inspection cost is small compared to what water does once it’s inside the chase.
