Services

What we build across greater Houston.

Fireplace installation, comprehensive chimney repair, custom brick and stone work, structural masonry, and outdoor kitchens with wood-fired pizza ovens. Designed and built by the same masons from the footing to the final struck joint.

Fireplace Installation

A fireplace is the one feature a room organizes itself around. Artex designs and installs custom fireplaces across Houston — traditional masonry fireboxes laid brick by brick, sealed direct vent units, classic wood-burning hearths, clean-burning gas inserts, and modern electric models. We size the opening, engineer the draft, build the surround in brick or natural stone, and finish the mantel so the whole thing looks original to the house.

Chimney Repair & Maintenance

Houston humidity and freeze-thaw cycles pull chimneys apart from the top down. Artex handles comprehensive chimney repair — rebuilding failed crowns, tuckpointing cracked mortar joints, replacing spalled brick, resetting flashing, installing caps and dampers, and relining flues. We inspect first and show you photos of what we found before we quote a dollar of work.

Custom Masonry, Brick & Stone Work

Masonry is the foundation of everything Artex does. We lay brick and block, set natural and manufactured stone veneer, build columns, retaining walls, planters, mailboxes, and full exterior facades — new construction and restoration alike. Tight joints, consistent color blends, and a level line you can sight down. Three decades of Houston-area work behind every wall.

Masonry Repair & Structural Work

Cracked mortar joints and stair-step cracks in brick are the house telling you something moved. Artex diagnoses the cause before we touch the symptom — settling, drainage, foundation movement, or simple mortar failure — then repairs the masonry so it stays repaired. Tuckpointing, brick replacement, lintel repair, wall rebuilds, and foundation-related structural masonry across the Houston area.

Outdoor Kitchens, Pizza Ovens & Outdoor Living

Houston evenings are made for being outside. Artex builds outdoor living spaces around real masonry — brick pizza ovens that hold heat, outdoor fireplaces and fire pits, built-in grill kitchens with stone counters and stainless doors, seat walls, and patio hardscape. Designed as one project so the materials, joints, and proportions all agree.
