Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a masonry and a prefab fireplace?
A masonry fireplace is built on site from brick or stone and requires a substantial foundation. A prefab (factory-built) fireplace is a manufactured metal unit that arrives ready to install, weighs far less, and can go into homes that were never designed for a traditional chimney. We install prefab units and new wood-burning systems and can help you decide which fits your home.
Do I need a permit to install a fireplace?
In most areas, yes. Fireplace installations typically require a building permit and an inspection because they involve venting, clearances, and fire safety. We follow local codes on every job and can help you understand what your municipality requires before work begins.
How long does a fireplace installation take?
It depends on the unit and your home. A straightforward prefab installation can often be completed in a day or two, while projects that involve new framing, a new chimney system, or finish work around the hearth take longer. After the on-site assessment, we give you a clear timeline before any work starts.
Do you install fireplace inserts?
Yes — inserts are one of the most popular upgrades we install, turning a drafty open fireplace into an efficient heater, usually with a new stainless liner.
