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.

Is it worth it to have a wood-burning fireplace?

The crackling fire and natural warmth are hard to beat for creating a cozy atmosphere, especially during those colder New York winters.

What is the most efficient wood-burning fireplace?

Modern EPA-certified wood-burning fireplaces and inserts are designed for high efficiency. These units burn wood more completely, producing less smoke and more heat.
