What affects the price

When you're looking at a new fireplace, the bottom line depends on a few specific things. First, are we working with an existing chimney or venting system, or does everything need to be built from scratch? The type of fuel matters too—gas, electric, or wood-burning units all carry different installation requirements. You also have to consider the finish work, like custom stonework, mantels, or drywall repairs around the unit. Labor complexity is the biggest factor here. We’ll get you the exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

The price includes both the physical fireplace unit and the professional labor to hook it up. High-end units with remote features or custom surrounds will increase the total compared to standard models. Installation costs also shift based on whether we are retrofitting an existing space or building a new chase. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
