A fireplace in a room that has none

Want a fireplace added to a room without one? It can be done in most rooms, and the room decides how. The wall it goes on, the floor under it and what's above it, from the ceiling to the roof, set the choices: a factory-built wood unit with a metal chimney, a gas fireplace that vents through the wall, an electric one that needs no vent at all, or a masonry fireplace built on site.

Our pros come out, study the room and the space around it, and lay out the options that fit, each given a written price. Ask a local pro about a new fireplace for your home in Evinston by phoning (352) 675-6366.

Local Conditions

Fireplaces for occasional evenings

If you picture lighting the new fireplace in Evinston on a handful of cool evenings, a gas or electric unit may suit you better than wood, with no wood to store and no ashes to clear. Our pros talk through how you'll use it before recommending a type, and they price each option that fits the room. No wood pile, no ash bucket, just a switch.

Our Process

Four stages of a new fireplace

Look at the room

The wall, floor, attic and roof are looked at, then the fireplace options that fit are laid out.
Plan and price

You choose a unit, and the quote lists every part, trade, permit and inspection.
Install and check

The unit and its chimney or vent go in to the manual, with clearances checked before walls close.
Test and hand over

The unit is tested, you're shown how to use it, and you get the break-in steps noted on the quote.

Hearths for factory-built units

Every factory-built wood fireplace needs a hearth extension, and the building code sends you to the unit's listing for its size and material. The code also wants that extension to stand out clearly from the surrounding floor, and hearth extension products carry a UL 1618 listing.

Working from the manual, our specialists pick a hearth material that meets it and suits your floor, and set it so its edge is clear to anyone walking by.

Some gas units need no hearth extension at all, and some need a noncombustible floor under the unit. The manual decides, and our pros follow it to the letter.

Planning a gas fireplace

Three things get planned together for a gas fireplace: where it sits, how it vents and where the gas comes from. Direct-vent units draw air from outside and send exhaust out through a sealed pipe, through the wall or the roof, as the maker's vent tables allow.

The gas line to the unit is a gas contractor's work, sized and run to the gas code, and our quote names who does it.

The unit, the venting and the framing follow the maker's installation manual, and our pros coordinate the timing with the gas contractor so the line is ready when the unit goes in.

Permits and inspections for a new fireplace

Installing a fireplace is work the Florida Building Code puts under permit, and the local building department inspects it, generally including the framing before it's covered and the finished installation.

Required inspection stages need to be established before surrounding work is closed in. Discuss how those visits affect the sequence, including any separate gas or electrical work. The estimate should state the application responsibilities and the charges included in the price.

The building department decides the specifics for your job, and our pros build to the code and the maker's listing so the inspections go smoothly and the schedule holds. Any fee is shown on the quote.

FAQs

Your fireplace installation questions, answered

Which kind of fireplace should I get?

The room decides a lot: an outside wall suits a direct-vent gas unit, an inside wall means a chimney through the attic, and an electric unit fits almost anywhere. Our specialists lay out the options that fit, priced side by side.

Can you replace my old factory-built fireplace?

We can. The old rating plate shows what you have, the maker's current line shows what's offered, and our pros plan a replacement that's listed with its chimney. Talk to us about your replacement in Evinston at (352) 675-6366.
