Fireplace installation cost — Columbia, SC

Last updated: September 24, 2026

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

Your installation cost is driven by the type of fireplace, the amount of custom carpentry needed, and the logistics of venting the unit safely. Adding features like stone veneers or custom mantels will increase the labor time significantly compared to a basic installation. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

Fall is when everyone starts thinking about their fireplace again. Our schedule fills up very quickly as the air gets crisp. If you are planning to have a unit installed before the holidays, it is best to reach out as soon as possible.
