We’ve been serving the 78729 ZIP and surrounding communities for over 42 years. Our trucks run regularly along Anderson Mill Road, past the old limestone outcrops near the Balcones Canyonlands Preserve boundary, and into the established neighborhoods where the original 1970s and 1980s ranch homes sit with their chimneys slowly surrendering to time. Russell Haines built this company on the principle that a repair done right should outlast the person who paid for it. That’s still how we operate in Anderson Mill.
Why Hearthstone Chimney Co. Is Anderson Mill’s Preferred Chimney Repair Company
Anderson Mill homeowners know their neighborhood’s history. The homes here were marketed with wood-burning fireplaces as a signature amenity during the community’s build-out from the mid-1970s through the early 1990s. Those fireplaces are now 30 to 50 years old, and the original clay tile flue liners, mortar joints, and damper assemblies are reaching end of life. We’ve repaired hundreds of them, including many requiring Chimney Liner & Rebuild - Anderson Mill services.
Our reputation here rests on documentation. Every Level-2 camera inspection ends with photos you can see and a plain-English verdict - no technical jargon, no vague warnings. Homeowners in the Anderson Mill West and Anderson Mill East subdivisions, along Cypress Creek Road, and near the old Spicewood Springs intersection have come to expect this standard from our Chimney Repair team.
Response time matters when water is entering through a compromised crown or flashing. We typically schedule Anderson Mill appointments within 48 hours, and emergency calls get same-day assessment when conditions warrant. Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and carry the professional-grade materials needed for most repairs on their trucks.
The 90-Day Done Right Promise governs every job. In writing, no arguing. If it’s not right, we come back. That’s the K.E.Y.S. code: Krafted right, Every time, Your home first, Standing behind it. A company that plans to be here in thirty more years acts accordingly.
Our Chimney Repair Services in Anderson Mill
Mortar Repointing
The original mortar in Anderson Mill’s masonry chimneys has endured four decades of Central Texas thermal cycling - hot days, sudden cold snaps, and the humid off-seasons that keep mortar damp enough to degrade. We grind out deteriorated joints to proper depth and repoint with color-matched, professional-grade mortar formulated for local conditions. Typical repointing on an Anderson Mill chimney runs $850-$1,400.

Spalling Brick Repair
Spalling - the flaking and crumbling of brick faces - shows up constantly in Anderson Mill’s older homes where moisture has penetrated the masonry and frozen during those rare hard freezes. The 78729 area sees just enough sub-32 nights to do damage, but not enough to keep homeowners vigilant. We remove damaged brick, address the moisture source, and install matching replacements. Most spalling repairs in Anderson Mill fall between $650 and $1,200.

Chimney Waterproofing
Anderson Mill’s humid warm seasons accelerate crown and mortar deterioration even when the fireplace sits idle. Our waterproofing treatment uses breathable, professional-grade sealers that allow vapor to escape while blocking liquid water. We apply this after any necessary masonry repair, not as a cover-up. Expect $400-$750 for waterproofing on a standard Anderson Mill chimney, with a 10-year performance expectation on properly prepared surfaces.

Flashing Repair
The step flashing and counterflashing where your chimney penetrates the roofline is a chronic leak point in Anderson Mill’s original construction. Many of these homes never had proper kickout flashing installed to current standards. We fabricate and install custom flashing using durable materials, and we document the before condition with photos. Flashing repair in Anderson Mill typically runs $550-$950 depending on roof pitch and accessibility.
We also handle Chimney Cap & Crown in Anderson Mill when the damage extends beyond flashing into the concrete crown itself, and our Fireplace Services in Anderson Mill cover the firebox and damper assemblies that often need attention alongside exterior chimney work.

Common Chimney Repair Problems We See in Anderson Mill Homes
- Crown cracks admitting water. The poured concrete crowns on 1980s Anderson Mill homes were often sloped inadequately and sealed with paint-grade coatings that failed within a decade. Water enters, freezes during rare hard freezes, and widens cracks progressively until the crown requires rebuilding.
- Deteriorated mortar from humid idle seasons. Because Anderson Mill averages only a dozen nights below freezing annually, fireplaces sit unused for years. The humid Central Texas off-season keeps masonry damp, dissolving mortar joints slowly even without freeze-thaw cycling.
- Original damper assemblies seized or rusted through. The throat dampers installed in 1970s-1990s Anderson Mill construction were steel units that corrode when not operated regularly. Many homeowners here have never opened theirs and don’t discover the failure until a Level-1 inspection reveals it.
- Chimney swift nesting in uncapped flues. These federally protected migratory birds roost in Anderson Mill’s original uncapped chimneys each spring and summer. Once nesting is active, any cleaning or capping work must legally wait until fledglings depart - a compliance issue that catches homeowners off guard when they call for late-spring service.
