With 17 years experience building dream outdoor spaces, I know we can build your dream. We are a small enough company that we retain a personal touch with each customer throughout the design and creation process, yet we are large enough to develop grand-scale outdoor living areas. We can build a single planting bed to grow perennial flowers, or we can develop an area of five acres or greater involving numerous elements, phases and contractors. We believe it is important for an outdoor living area to feel like an extension of your home. Our mission is to build a landscape project that is architecturally relevant, relaxed and constructed to fit the natural setting of your property. We work to create the feeling that the inside of your home simply flows outside.
"Quick, professional and very easy to work with! Highly recommend!"

"Work was done as promised. Complications for firebox rebuild were discovered and remedied without additional cost. Repairs to the chimney liners was done much less expensively than I thought possible without tearing into the brickwork. It seems that the owner treats his workers with respect. There is a team atmosphere on the job. He has more long-term employees than I have seen in companies that hire tradesmen."

Brick or stone fireplace installations FAQs
Most localities require permits for gas fireplace removal, especially when gas lines are involved or structural changes are planned. Permit requirements vary significantly between municipalities, so check with your local building department before beginning work. Working without required permits can result in fines and complications when selling your home. Your contractor should be familiar with local requirements and can often handle the permitting process as part of the project.
The timeframe for gas fireplace removal varies based on project complexity. Simple projects take one to five days, while complete demolitions involving chimney removal can extend to several weeks. Factors affecting the timeline include the fireplace's size, materials, accessibility, and whether structural modifications are needed. Your contractor should provide a detailed timeline after assessing your specific situation and identifying any potential complications.
Removing a gas fireplace may decrease your home's value by $1,000 to $5,000, particularly in regions where fireplaces are considered desirable features. The impact varies depending on your local real estate market and buyer preferences. In cold-climate areas or luxury home markets, the absence of a fireplace might make your property less attractive to potential buyers. Consider consulting with a local real estate professional before removing a fireplace if you're concerned about resale value.
After removing a gas fireplace, you have numerous options for the reclaimed space. Many homeowners install built-in bookshelves, create an entertainment center for a television, or simply extend their living area. The space might also become a decorative niche for artwork or a reading corner with comfortable seating. Whatever you choose, ensure that the area is properly finished to blend seamlessly with the rest of your room, with appropriate flooring, wall treatments, and lighting.
Converting your gas fireplace to electric is often a practical alternative to complete removal. This option preserves the aesthetic appeal of a fireplace while eliminating gas-related maintenance and safety concerns. Electric fireplaces offer simplified installation, cleaner operation, and adjustable heat settings.
The conversion process involves removing gas components, capping the gas line, and installing an electric insert. This approach can be more economical than full removal while maintaining a functional heating feature in your home.
Finding qualified professionals for gas fireplace removal requires researching contractors with specific credentials. Look for licensed plumbers with gas fitting certification to handle the gas line disconnection. For structural work, seek contractors with experience in fireplace removal and demolition. Request references from previous similar projects and verify proper insurance coverage. Obtaining multiple quotes helps ensure competitive pricing while allowing you to assess each contractor's expertise and approach to your specific project needs.
