Your Complete Fireplace Service Provider in Florida
A fireplace is more than just a heat source—it's the heart of your home, a gathering place for family and friends, and a significant investment in comfort and value. At Chimney Repair Group, we provide comprehensive fireplace services to keep your hearth functioning safely, efficiently, and beautifully for years to come.
Whether you have a traditional masonry fireplace, a gas insert, a freestanding stove, or are considering a conversion, our CSIA-certified technicians have the expertise to help. We service all major brands and types of fireplaces throughout South Florida and South Florida.
Gas Fireplace Installation
Gas fireplaces offer the ambiance of a real fire with unmatched convenience—no wood to haul, no ashes to clean, and instant on/off control. Modern gas units are also highly efficient, with many models achieving 70-90% efficiency compared to 10-15% for open wood fireplaces.
We install all types of gas fireplaces: Direct-vent units draw combustion air from outside and vent exhaust directly out, making them safe for tight, energy-efficient homes. B-vent (natural vent) units use your existing chimney for venting. Vent-free units (where code permits) require no venting at all. We'll assess your home, discuss your heating goals and aesthetic preferences, and recommend the best solution for your situation.
Gas Fireplace Repair
When your gas fireplace stops working or develops problems, you want it fixed fast. Our technicians diagnose and repair all gas fireplace issues including: pilot lights that won't stay lit, main burners that won't ignite, thermocouples and thermopiles, ignition systems (piezo, electronic, and IPI), blower motors, remote controls and wall switches, gas valves and regulators, and more.
We carry common parts and can repair most issues in a single visit. For less common parts, we source quickly from manufacturer and distributor networks. Our goal is always same-day repair when possible.
Annual Gas Fireplace Maintenance
Like any gas appliance, fireplaces need regular maintenance for safe, efficient operation. Annual service extends equipment life, prevents breakdowns, and catches safety issues before they become dangerous. Our comprehensive maintenance includes: cleaning of burner and pilot assembly, inspection of all gas connections for leaks, checking and adjusting flame pattern, cleaning of glass and interior, inspection of venting system, testing all safety controls, lubricating moving parts, and verifying proper operation.
Wood to Gas Fireplace Conversion
Love your fireplace but hate the work of wood burning? You're not alone. Many Florida homeowners are converting their wood-burning fireplaces to gas for convenience, cleanliness, and efficiency. A quality gas insert fits into your existing fireplace opening, using your masonry structure but eliminating the hassles of wood.
Conversion involves: selecting the right insert for your firebox dimensions and heating needs, installing a properly sized liner through your existing chimney, connecting gas supply (we coordinate with licensed plumbers), and setting up controls. The result is a beautiful fire you can enjoy with the flip of a switch.
Wood Burning Fireplace Services
If you prefer the authentic crackle and aroma of wood fires, we maintain and repair traditional fireplaces too. Services include: damper repair and replacement (including top-sealing dampers that dramatically reduce energy loss), firebox restoration and rebuilding, smoke chamber parging, glass door installation (which improves efficiency while protecting your home from sparks), and fireplace face renovation.
Brands We Service
Our technicians are trained on all major fireplace brands including Heat & Glo, Heatilator, Napoleon, Majestic, Lennox, Regency, Vermont Castings, Mendota, Fireplace Xtrordinair, Travis Industries, and more. Whether your unit is brand new or decades old, we have the expertise and parts access to keep it running.

How often should gas fireplaces be serviced?
We recommend annual professional service for all gas fireplaces. This maintains safe operation, ensures efficiency, and catches small problems before they become expensive repairs. Many manufacturers require annual service to maintain warranty coverage.
Can I convert my wood fireplace to gas?
In most cases, yes! Gas inserts fit into most masonry fireplace openings. We'll measure your firebox, assess your chimney, and recommend appropriate insert options. The process typically takes one day including liner installation and gas connection coordination.
Why is my gas fireplace not lighting?
Common causes include: pilot light issues (thermocouple/thermopile failure), dirty or malfunctioning ignition systems, gas supply problems, dead batteries in remote/switch, and faulty gas valves. Our technicians diagnose the cause and repair it—usually in a single visit.
Are gas fireplaces safe?
Yes! Modern gas fireplaces are very safe when properly installed and maintained. They include multiple safety systems including oxygen depletion sensors, automatic shutoffs, and tempered glass barriers. Annual maintenance ensures all safety systems function correctly.
How much does gas fireplace installation cost?
Complete gas insert installations typically range from $3,500-$8,000 including the unit, liner, and installation. Cost varies by unit selection, liner requirements, and gas line work needed. We provide detailed quotes after assessing your specific situation.
Can I install a gas fireplace where I don't have one now?
Yes! Direct-vent gas fireplaces can be installed almost anywhere—they only need gas supply and exterior wall access for the vent. We've installed fireplaces in bedrooms, basements, master baths, and outdoor living spaces. Let's discuss your ideas.
Why does my gas fireplace smell?
Slight odor when first lighting after summer is normal—dust burning off. Persistent odor could indicate: incomplete combustion (needs adjustment), dust/debris on logs or burner (needs cleaning), or rarely, a gas leak (needs immediate attention). We'll diagnose the cause and resolve it.
How efficient are gas fireplaces?
Modern gas inserts achieve 70-90% efficiency, meaning most of the fuel's energy heats your home. Compare this to traditional wood fireplaces at 10-15% efficiency (most heat goes up the chimney). A gas insert can significantly reduce heating costs while providing beautiful ambiance.
Can I control my gas fireplace with my phone?
Many modern units offer WiFi connectivity and smartphone control. We can also install aftermarket smart thermostats compatible with your fireplace. Imagine turning on your fireplace from bed on a cold morning, or ensuring it's off when you leave home.
What maintenance can I do myself?
Homeowners can: clean glass with approved cleaner (not household glass cleaner which damages coatings), vacuum around the unit to reduce dust, replace remote batteries, and visually inspect for obvious issues. Leave internal components to professionals to maintain warranty and safety.
