Wood Fireplace Installation & Repairs

When looking to enhance the coziness and ambiance of your residence, many Australian homeowners turn to wood fireplaces as a practical and budget-friendly option. Embraced by a multitude of individuals in the region, these fireplaces are especially popular on the Bass Coast, where the chilly winters make them a valuable addition. The radiant warmth they provide not only keeps you snug but also adds a touch of allure, creating a soothing environment that is perfect for relaxation. If you are planning to resell your home in the future, the good thing is that a fireplace could increase its resale price too.

Gas Fireplace Installation & Repairs

New Installations
You will need to determine if your residence is equipped for natural gas. If there are no existing gas lines reaching your house, they will need to be arranged before installation of the appliance. All gas fireplaces mandate a ventilation system, which can be achieved by employing a chimney or a direct vent setup. It is crucial to consult with a licensed gas professional to ensure proper installation and safety compliance for your gas fireplace. The expenses associated with gas fireplace setup fluctuate based on the brand, dimensions and design of the gas fireplace selected, along with the intricacy of the installation process. The procedure can typically be finalised within one day.
