What's Included

Installed Right, Venting & All

Installing a fireplace or stove is the difference between hiring a handyman and hiring a plumber — the appliance is the easy part; the venting, clearances, and chimney work are what keep it usable for years. We change out tired units and install new ones turn-key, chimney and venting included — start with an estimate, or browse appliances for an instant ballpark.

Wood, gas, and pellet stove and insert installations
Fireplace change-outs and upgrades
New chimney and venting to match the appliance
Liners sized to the unit
Installs that already have the chimney work figured in

Common Questions

Questions, Answered

The questions we hear most.

Can you install an appliance I already bought?

Yes. If you've already got a fireplace or stove, we'll handle the install and the venting it needs so it runs reliably and efficiently.

How do I get a price?

Send us photos and a few details and we'll put together an estimate, or browse appliances for an instant ballpark. We'll confirm the real number once we understand your space.

Why not just hire the cheapest installer?

Because a fireplace installed wrong is a problem you pay for twice. We've been called back to fix plenty of bargain installs — doing it right the first time is the cheaper road.

Can you convert my wood fireplace to gas?

Yes. Swapping a wood-burning fireplace for a gas insert or unit is one of the most common changeouts we do, and we handle the venting and connections that go with it — not just the appliance.
