Fireplace Installation Service in Colleyville, TX

Maybe your old wood fireplace sits unused because it smokes, drafts or takes too long to light. Maybe you just bought a home and want a real fire on the first cold night. Either way, a new gas log set or insert turns the fireplace back into the part of the room people actually use. Ember is rated 5.0 stars on Google, and we have been family owned and serving DFW since 2004.

Gas Log Installation

A gas log set is the fastest way to get an easy, clean fire in an existing fireplace. We install vented and vent-free log sets, size the burner to your firebox, and set the logs so the flame looks right and burns clean.

• Vented gas logs: the most realistic flame, burned with the damper open.
• Vent-free gas logs: more heat in the room, burned with the damper closed.
• Replacement log sets: we swap worn or cracked logs and old burners for a new set.
• Safety check: every install includes a leak test and a check of the pilot, valve and damper.

Fireplace Insert Installation

An open masonry fireplace sends most of its heat up the chimney. A fireplace insert sits inside the existing firebox and pushes heat into the room instead. We install gas and wood-burning inserts, run a stainless steel liner up the flue when the insert needs one, and seal the surround so the unit looks built in.

Before an insert goes in, we inspect the chimney so the liner and venting match the new unit.

Wood Stove Installation

Ember installs wood stoves in DFW homes, from the stove pipe connection to the chimney or liner. We check the clearance to walls and floors, the hearth pad and the flue size so the stove drafts well and burns safely.

• Freestanding wood stoves on a new or existing hearth.
• Wood-burning inserts for existing masonry fireplaces.
• Draft test on every stove before we leave.

Gas Fireplace Installation

Want a new gas fireplace, a fresh surround or a more modern look? We install gas fireplaces and build or refinish the surround and hearth around them. Every gas install gets a leak test and a test burn before we leave.

Already have a gas fireplace that will not light? That is a repair, not a replacement, so start with our fireplace repair service. Many units can be fixed for far less than a new one.

What Happens During a Fireplace Installation

Every installation follows the same steps, so you know what to expect.

1. Inspection first

We check the flue, liner, damper, firebox and gas supply. The NFPA 211 standard calls for a Level 2 chimney inspection when you change the appliance or fuel type.

2. Choose the unit

We help you pick a log set, insert or stove that fits the firebox and how you heat the room, then give you a written price.

3. Install and protect your home

We cover the floors, install the unit and connect the gas or venting.

4. Test before we leave

We run a leak test on gas units, a test burn and a draft check, then show you how to use the new fireplace.

Chimney Inspection Before a New Fireplace

A new fireplace is only as safe as the chimney above it. Cracked flue tiles, a missing cap or the wrong liner size can push smoke or gas back into the room. That is why we start with a chimney inspection and fix what needs fixing before the new unit goes in.

If the top of the chimney is open to rain and animals, we can add a new chimney cap in the same visit.
