Gas Fireplace Service in Newport, NC

Newport has grown quickly along the Highway 70 corridor, and that shows up in our work as two very different kinds of job. On new construction we're often in before the drywall, setting a direct-vent unit and running the gas line while the framing is still open — which is far and away the cheapest time to do it, and the point at which you still have a choice about where the fireplace goes. On the older homes closer to the original town, we're usually retrofitting into a masonry firebox that was built for wood, where the questions are about liner sizing and whether the existing chimney can be used at all. If you're building in Newport and a fireplace is anywhere in your plans, call before the walls close up. The difference in cost between doing it then and doing it later is not small.

What that means for Newport homes

• ✓Pre-drywall installs on new construction — the cheapest and least invasive stage to run gas and venting.
• ✓Wood-to-gas conversions in older masonry fireboxes near the original town center.
• ✓Same-day visits from our New Bern base, a short run up the Hwy 70 corridor.
