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.

Will a wood-burning fireplace heat a house?

A traditional wood-burning fireplace is typically best for heating a single room or providing supplemental warmth in a Louisville/Jefferson County home.

The pros can advise on the heating capacity and suitability of various options for your living space.

Are wood-burning fireplace inserts worth it?
