What affects the price

When you look at getting a fireplace installed, several variables change the final bill. The biggest factor is the type of unit you choose—gas, wood-burning, or electric models all have different requirements. You also have to consider your home's existing ventilation and whether a chimney or direct-vent pipe needs to be built from scratch. If we need to run new gas lines or electrical circuits, that adds labor time and complexity. Your exact pricing is confirmed free on the call.

About this service

The price of installing an insert depends on the fuel type—wood, gas, or electric—and the amount of prep work needed to prepare your existing masonry firebox. You may need a professional to inspect your chimney for safety before the insert goes in. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

Many people overlook summer for fireplace installations, but it is actually an ideal time. Because demand is lower, you can often secure a time slot that fits your schedule perfectly. It gives us plenty of time to focus on the technical details of your installation, ensuring a smooth process before the busy season hits.

Frequently asked in St. Paul

What's the average cost to install a fireplace?
What is the 2 + 10 rule for fireplaces?

The 2+10 rule is a safety guideline for fireplace clearances. Generally, it means a fireplace should be at least 2 inches from combustible materials on the sides and 10 inches from the top. A licensed installer will ensure your St. Paul installation adheres to all building codes and safety standards.

Can I install a fireplace myself?

While some minor fireplace tasks can be DIY, a full installation, especially involving gas lines or structural modifications, is best left to the pros. Incorrect installation can be a serious fire hazard and void warranties. For safety and peace of mind in St. Paul, professional installation is highly recommended.
