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 Orange Heights by phoning (352) 675-6366.

Local Conditions

Swapping an aging metal fireplace

Is the factory-built fireplace in your home in Orange Heights at the end of its life? Parts for older models can be hard to find, and the chimney was listed with the old unit. Our specialists read the old rating plate, check what the maker offers now, and plan a replacement that's listed from the firebox to the cap. Parts for the old model are checked first, in case a direct swap is possible.

Our Process

What a masonry fireplace stands on

Masonry fireplaces and their chimneys weigh enough to need a foundation of their own. The Florida Building Code has it poured in concrete or built of solid masonry, with a minimum thickness of 12 inches and a margin of 6 inches or more around the whole footprint.

It goes in before any brick does, which is one reason masonry fireplaces are planned for the ground floor.

Our specialists lay out the footing with the fireplace design, check the ground conditions they can see, and explain what the building department will want to inspect before the masonry goes up. The footing is priced as its own stage.

How thick the firebox walls are

The walls of a masonry firebox keep the fire's heat away from the house. The code's figures: 8 inches of solid masonry in total when a firebrick lining of 2 inches or more is part of it, and 10 inches of solid masonry when there's no lining.

Our specialists build fireboxes with a firebrick lining laid in refractory mortar and solid masonry behind it, to the full thickness.

It's more material than you see from the room, and it's what keeps the framing around the fireplace cool through years of fires. The build is priced in stages, so you can see where the money goes.

Checks before the walls are closed

Once the finish goes on, the most important parts of a fireplace install are hidden: the clearances to framing, the fire stops, the insulation shield in the attic and the connections between chimney sections.

No drywall, tile or stone goes up until each of those matches the maker's manual or the code. Where something is off, it's corrected before the finish trades return.

The checks are noted on your quote. It's also when the building department's framing inspection happens, so the two line up. Getting it right at this stage is what keeps the fireplace safe for years. Nothing gets covered early.
