What affects the price

When you are looking at wood fireplaces, the final cost depends on several moving parts. Choosing between a pre-fabricated insert and a custom masonry build is the biggest factor. You also have to think about venting requirements, the type of chimney lining needed, and the finish materials like stone or brick veneer. If your home needs structural modifications to meet current safety codes, that will add to the labor hours. We look at your specific setup to provide a clear path forward. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

Converting from wood to gas involves removing your old grate, installing a gas line, and fitting a new burner system. Factors that move the price include the distance from your gas main, the type of venting required, and the level of cosmetic finishing work needed. While costs vary based on your home's specific layout, projects typically start in the mid-hundreds and go up depending on the unit chosen. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
