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.

How much does it cost to install a fireplace?

Do fireplaces need to be professionally installed?
Yes, for safety and proper functionality, professional installation is strongly advised for most fireplaces, especially gas and wood-burning models. Professionals possess the knowledge of venting, gas line connections, and building codes necessary to prevent potential hazards like fires or carbon monoxide leaks.

What is the 2 + 10 rule for fireplaces?
The 2+10 rule, often the 3-2-10 rule, refers to chimney height clearances. It mandates that the chimney extend at least 3 feet above the roof penetration and be at least 2 feet higher than any part of the building within a 10-foot radius. This ensures proper draft and prevents fire hazards.
