Wood fireplace inserts — Hampton, VA
Last updated: September 24, 2026
What affects the price
The final cost of your fireplace depends on several moving parts. Choosing between a simple insert and a full custom masonry build changes the labor intensity significantly. You also need to consider the complexity of the venting system and whether your home requires structural modifications to accommodate the unit safely. High-end materials like natural stone or custom glass doors will naturally push the budget higher, while standard finishes keep things more affordable. We can help you navigate these choices; exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
About this service
These are specialized heating appliances fitted inside an existing fireplace opening. You need one if your current fireplace is purely decorative or loses too much heat. These inserts provide a much higher heat output by recycling air through a heat exchanger before blowing it back into the room. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
Summer might seem like an odd time to think about fire, but it is actually the smartest window to plan your installation. Contractors often have more flexibility in their schedules, which can make the process smoother for you. Getting your fireplace project finished during the warmer months means you are completely prepared to enjoy those first cozy nights of fall.

What is a wood burning pen?
A wood burning pen, also known as a pyrography pen, is a tool used for decorating or creating art on wood by burning designs onto the surface. It uses a heated metal tip to scorch the wood, creating lines and shading. This is a craft tool and is not related to wood-burning fireplaces or stoves used for heating. It’s important not to confuse the two.
What's the best wood for burning in a fireplace?
The best wood for burning in a fireplace is seasoned hardwood, such as oak, maple, or hickory. 'Seasoned' means the wood has been dried for at least six to twelve months, reducing its moisture content. Dry wood burns hotter, cleaner, and produces less creosote buildup in the chimney, which is a major fire hazard. Avoid using green or unseasoned wood, as it burns poorly and creates excessive smoke and dangerous creosote.
