We are an independent Olympia Chimney service provider in Fort Worth, not a factory affiliate, which means we diagnose Olympia products without any incentive to upsell you on parts you don’t need.

How Olympia Chimney Products Fail – and How We Find It

Olympia Chimney builds solid venting products, but every brand has failure patterns. Here are the ones we find most often on Olympia equipment in Fort Worth homes:

• Olympia stainless steel chimney liners developing pinhole corrosion at the seam welds. In Fort Worth’s wet springs and hot summers, condensation sits inside the flue longer than it should. Over time, acidic creosote mixed with that moisture eats at the welded seams first. We see this most on Olympia’s flexible liner systems installed in exterior masonry chimneys. Our fix is a camera inspection to map the corrosion, then a HeatShield resurfacing or a DuraFlex reline depending on how far it’s spread.
• Olympia anchor plate and top plate seal failures letting water into the chase. These are the metal plates at the top of a factory-built chimney. The silicone sealant around them breaks down after 8 to 12 years of Texas sun. We find rust streaks below the plate, which tells us water’s been getting behind it. We replace the plate and gasket with OEM-spec materials, not generic silicone.
• Olympia chimney cap spark arrestor screens clogging with creosote glaze. On Olympia air-cooled chimney systems, the cap’s mesh screen catches creosote the same way a dryer vent catches lint. A glazed screen restricts draft and pushes smoke back into the house. We clean the screen during inspection and tell you honestly if it’s worth replacing or just needs regular maintenance.
• Olympia factory-built chimney sections separating at the twist-lock joints after storm shifts. High winds that roll through Fort Worth in spring can torque the chimney enough to loosen the twist-lock connections between pipe sections. You won’t see this from the ground. A camera inspection shows the gap, and we correct the alignment or replace the section.
• Olympia firestop and attic insulation shield clearances getting compromised by renovation work. When someone adds attic insulation or finishes a bonus room, we often find insulation packed against the chimney chase, which violates the clearance Olympia specifies. That’s a fire hazard, and it’s one of the first things we check when inspecting any Olympia system in a remodelled Fort Worth house.

Our Olympia Chimney Chimney Inspection Process

1. 1
   Call and schedule. A live person answers at (682) 255-2144. We book a window that works around you, not the other way around.
2. 2
   On-site walk-through. Our technician arrives in a marked van, introduces himself, and asks what you’ve noticed, smoke, smell, water stains, anything. Then we look at the firebox, the exterior, and the attic chase if accessible.
3. 3
   Camera inspection of the flue. We run a camera through the full length of the Olympia chimney, top to bottom. You see the footage either live on the tablet or in stills we send after. Nothing is hidden.
4. 4
   Written findings and a written price. If we find damage, you get a written report with photos and a fixed price for the repair. That price will not change when we show up to do the work.
5. 5
   Repair and verification. If you approve the work, we complete it with Olympia-compatible parts or the appropriate aftermarket equivalent, then run the camera again or do a draft test to confirm it’s right.
6. 6
   Cleanup and guarantee. We leave the hearth cleaner than we found it. Every repair carries the 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing, valid for a full year from the service date.

What Olympia Chimney Chimney Inspection Costs in Fort Worth

What moves the price is access. A two-story roof in a Fort Worth neighborhood like Tanglewood or Ryan Place takes more setup time than a ranch house in Wedgwood. A chase cover that’s rusted through costs more than one we can reseal. We quote the inspection flat, and if we find repair work, you get a separate written price before anything else happens. Call (682) 255-2144 for a free estimate on your specific setup.
