When you call to discuss a gas fireplace installation, several factors will shape the final number. The biggest variables include whether you are installing a new unit in a blank wall, replacing an existing fireplace, or needing extensive gas line and venting work to bring the space up to code.

If your gas stove isn't igniting, won't hold a flame, or smells like gas, you need professional repair. We handle issues like blocked ports or faulty thermocouples that prevent your stove from heating your home properly. It is best to schedule a repair as soon as you notice performance changes to keep your heating system running efficiently and, most importantly, safely throughout the winter.
Many homeowners ignore their fireplace during the summer, but this is actually the best time to schedule an installation.
