About this service
Installing a fireplace insert for wood burning involves placing a steel or cast-iron box inside your current fireplace to maximize heat output. This is a practical choice if you enjoy the ambiance of wood but are tired of the heat loss associated with open masonry fireplaces. You need this upgrade if your current fireplace is mostly decorative and you want it to act as a functional, powerful heater for your main living area. We ensure the chimney liner is properly fitted.
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.
