Glass Door Installation in Boerne, TX

Mainly when the fireplace is idle: closed doors cut the draft that pulls heated room air up an open flue. During an active wood fire most heat still goes up the chimney, and doors are typically kept open while burning. They also block embers and keep pets and kids out of the firebox.

A barrier screen is a safety mesh that prevents contact burns on hot glass and is required on many newer gas units. Traditional bi-fold glass doors are mostly for masonry wood fireplaces. Which you need depends on whether the unit is gas or wood and what the manufacturer specifies — don't put non-rated doors on a gas insert.

Some masonry-mount doors are homeowner-installable, but correct sizing to the firebox opening and a secure mount matter for both safety and looks. Factory-built fireplaces usually require the manufacturer's own door, not a universal masonry unit — using the wrong one can void the listing.

Door style (bi-fold, cabinet-style, or barrier screen), frame finish, and whether the opening needs a custom-sized unit instead of a stock size. The starting price reflects a standard stock door; you get a written quote once the opening is measured.

In most cases it's repointing, not rebuilding — that's the whole point of catching it early. We rake out the failed mortar to full depth and repoint with a composition- and color-matched mix. Only when the stone itself has lost structural integrity or the stack is leaning do we discuss a partial rebuild, and we'll show you the evidence either way.

Because the wrong mortar destroys the stone. Old Boerne limestone was set in soft, high-lime mortar that flexes; if you patch it with hard modern cement, the cement won't move with the wall and forces the cracking into the limestone instead. We match the original mortar's softness and color so the repair protects the stone rather than attacking it.

Done correctly, no. We match mortar color and joint profile to the surrounding wall so the repointing blends in. On a historic stone home, an obvious gray smear is a failed job — a proper repair should be hard to spot.

Fall, ahead of any winter freeze. Open joints let water in, and a hard freeze turns that water into popped stone. Closing the joints before the cold — and waterproofing the breathable stone afterward — is the durable sequence for Hill-Country limestone.
