Chimney Maintenance in Murphy, TX

Telltale signs are a draft when the fireplace is idle, a damper that won't fully open or close, rust, or visible daylight at the throat. A failed damper lets conditioned air escape up the flue year-round — heat in winter, cool air in summer — so it quietly raises energy bills. Since our team also handles your ducts and attic, we look at the damper as part of your home's overall efficiency, not just a fireplace part.

A traditional throat damper sits inside the chimney just above the firebox; a top-sealing damper mounts at the very top with a rubber gasket and seals far more tightly, often doubling as a cap. Top-sealing units usually deliver a noticeably better airtight seal and bonus weather protection. We'll recommend based on your setup and how much the energy loss matters to you — straightforward, no pressure.

More than people expect. An open or broken damper is effectively a hole in your house — comparable to leaving a window cracked all year. Sealing it properly stops that constant loss of heated and cooled air. This is squarely in our wheelhouse: as a whole-home team, we tie the damper into the same efficiency conversation as duct sealing and attic insulation, since they all affect the same energy bill.

Both. A properly functioning damper controls draft for safer, cleaner burning and, when closed, keeps out rain, debris and animals between uses. A stuck-open or stuck-closed damper compromises both safety and efficiency. We verify it operates correctly as part of the same visit we sweep and inspect, so the whole system works together rather than fighting itself.
