Know Your Fireplace

Factory-Built vs. Masonry Fireplaces

Many Hanover Park homes have factory-built fireplaces, a metal firebox framed into the wall with a metal chimney, instead of a brick fireplace. They're designed for specific log sets and parts, so the model number matters. Look for a label inside the firebox or behind the lower grille. Give us that number when you call, and we'll come with the right parts or tell you what can be safely installed.

Pricing

What Affects the Price of Fireplace Work

A service visit is simple. Replacing a failed part depends on the part and the fireplace model, since factory-built units often need specific components. Adding a gas line for an insert depends on the route. We diagnose and quote a flat price.
