What Fate chimneys actually deal with.
Most new houses in Woodcreek and Chamberlain Crossing come with a builder warranty, and many owners also buy a home warranty from a third party — and those are two entirely different things that both get called the warranty. The builder's covers defects in the construction: workmanship for a period after closing, systems for longer, structure longer still. A fireplace installed wrong, a chase cover never sealed, a vent terminating in the wrong place — those are construction defects and they belong to the builder. A third-party home warranty is a service contract, and fireplaces are frequently excluded outright or covered only for specified mechanical components, with chimney and masonry conditions explicitly out of scope. It is worth reading which yours does before assuming you are covered. The practical advice for a house this new: when something is found, ask us to write it as condition and cause rather than just as a recommendation, because that document is what determines which of the two routes it goes down. The honest part: on a five-year-old house the answer is frequently that somebody else owes you the repair, and we would rather write that letter than take the job.

Seasonal maintenance for Fate homeowners
Texas weather is hard on chimneys. Here’s what we tell every Fate homeowner to stay ahead of.
Inspect crowns before the first freeze
North Texas freeze-thaw swings crack masonry crowns fast, and a cracked crown is a documented water-entry defect. A fall certified inspection grades those hairline cracks before winter moisture gets in and splits them open.
Book a post-hail inspection every spring
DFW's spring hailstorms routinely dent chase covers and tear flashing — both findings on a safety check. After any major hail event, a documented inspection catches the slow leaks that rot the firebox before they spread.
Cap the flue against summer nesting
Warm DFW summers and an open, unused flue invite birds and squirrels. A properly fitted cap with a code-spec spark arrestor stops nesting and clears the spark-screen item an inspection checks at the same time.
Scan pre-1990 liners with a camera
Older DFW brick chimneys often have undersized or cracked clay liners that look fine from the firebox. A Level 2 camera scan — the standard for grading a liner — finds the damage before it becomes a chimney-fire risk.
