EG Roofing | Fireplace Services & Roofing in Fresno, TX 77545

Absolutely. In Fresno, roof underlayment damage can allow moisture to seep into your attic and walls. This can compromise the chimney structure, fireplace framing, and even cause corrosion in metal flues. It's a safety and performance issue. We recommend a full roof inspection if you're experiencing fireplace problems, as we can address both the roof leak and the heating system repair together.

Many older Fresno homes have inefficient wood-burning fireplaces. Converting to a gas insert or log set improves heat output, reduces creosote buildup (a fire hazard), and is much cleaner. It's a smart upgrade that pairs well with a roof maintenance plan—a well-sealed roof and attic help any heating system operate more efficiently and safely.

Flashing seals the area where your chimney meets the roof. When it fails—a common issue here—water runs directly down the chimney exterior, damaging the masonry and potentially leaking into the fireplace surround. This often requires simultaneous repairs: we fix the roof flashing to stop the water entry, then inspect and repair any resulting damage to the fireplace structure or insert.
