We install masonry stoves, freestanding wood stoves, gas fireplaces, and inserts, making sure the venting is done right from the start.
We start by listening to what you want from a fireplace. Some homeowners picture a wood stove that can heat a large room, while others prefer the ease of a gas fireplace. Our crew has installed many types in Olive Branch, so we understand what works in local homes. We look at your space, talk about how you’ll use the fireplace, and give you an honest recommendation. If your existing fireplace just needs repairs, we’ll tell you that plainly and our fireplace repair service might be a better fit. We don’t push for a full replacement unless it’s the right move.
Every type of fireplace needs a proper chimney or venting system to exhaust combustion byproducts safely. We explain what your chosen appliance requires—whether it’s a stainless steel liner for a wood stove or a direct-vent pipe for a gas unit—so you know what to expect. This part of the job is critical, and we handle it from the firebox all the way to the roof.
On installation day, we prepare the area, checking clearances and hearth requirements. Then we position the fireplace or stove and run the chimney pipe or liner. Because our crew does chimney work, fireplace work, and roofing, we can manage every part of the job without bringing in separate contractors. We photograph the site before we begin and after everything is in place, so you can see exactly what was done.
If you’re adding an insert to an existing fireplace, the flue may need cleaning first. We handle that as part of the installation with our chimney sweeping. The whole process is handled by one local team, so there’s no gap between the fireplace and the chimney that vents it. You get a complete installation with no loose ends.
A fireplace can only perform well if the chimney or vent pipe is sized correctly and in good condition. A rusted chase cover or a missing cap is an open door for rain, animals, and debris, so part of many installations includes sealing the chimney top. We check the existing flue for cracks or buildup that could cause drafting problems, and we install caps and chase covers as needed to keep the system protected.
If you’re using an existing chimney, we start with a thorough look at its condition. Our chimney inspection checks the flue, crown, and masonry before we connect anything new. When everything is sound, we complete the connection and the fireplace is ready to use. You end up with a fireplace that is installed and vented to spec.
Not always. Gas fireplaces and some wood stoves can be vented through a wall or roof with the right chimney pipe. If you have an existing chimney, we can often use it after an inspection and any needed cleaning or repairs.
It depends on your lifestyle. Wood stoves produce intense radiant heat and have a traditional feel, but require wood storage and regular ash cleanup. Gas fireplaces light with a switch and need less daily work. We can walk you through the trade-offs for your home.
A fireplace insert can heat a large area, but it is designed to supplement your home’s heating system, not replace it. It turns an open, drafty fireplace into an efficient heat source that warms the room it’s in and nearby spaces.
Wood-burning fireplaces and stoves need regular chimney sweeping to remove creosote buildup. Gas fireplaces should be checked periodically for vent blockages and proper burner function. We can recommend a schedule based on how often you use the fireplace.
