Texas Brick Fireplaces

Texas Brick fireplaces come in all shapes and sizes. So even if you don't want a "traditional" looking fireplace, you may find that the look and feel of brick is right for you. One of the great things about brick is that it can get old and beat up looking without losing its charm. Many Texas fireplace owners feel that the aged look is part of that charm rather than something that detracts from it. If you've ever seen a brand new Texas brick fireplace, you may understand what they're talking about. The brick is all shiny and new. It gleams. It looks nice in a way, but it doesn't look "natural." You feel as though you want to take it through a season of fires to break it in. Then it will look the way a Texas brick fireplace ought to look. Then it will have that patina that adds warmth to the home even when there isn't a fire going.

If you are planning a renovation, remodeling or refacing of your old interior stone brickTexas fireplace or construction of a new one, you've come to the right place.

 Texas Stone Fireplaces

Keep in mind that the stone used in a Texas stone veneer fireplace needs to be durable and not susceptible to heat damage. Limestone, granite and dense metamorphic rocks can stand up to heat with no issues. Avoid soft rocks, slate or any other rock that crumbles fairly easily. The inside of the firebox should absolutely be built with hard firebrick set in fireclay, not mortar. Mortar used in between firebrick almost always crumbles when subjected to the repeated heat of fires. Fireclay is the preferred material as the joints between the brick are small, and the fireclay tends to vitrify with each fire.
