Who repairs and services gas fireplaces in Western North Carolina?
Steady Flame services and repairs gas fireplaces throughout Swannanoa, where recent storm damage sent a wave of rebuilds and renovations — and with them, new fireplace and stove installs alongside the usual repairs. Fifteen minutes east of our Asheville showroom, we handle both. Pilots, valves, igniters, blowers, sooty logs, and full replacements. NFI-certified. Call (828) 545-0525.
Rebuilding, and re-heating
A lot of Swannanoa homes are coming back after storm damage, and rebuilds are the moment to get the hearth right — a sealed gas fireplace or stove that keeps throwing heat when the grid goes down. That's a lesson the whole valley learned the hard way: the houses that stayed warm through days-long outages were the ones with a working gas or wood hearth. Central heat stops when the power does; a millivolt or battery-backup gas unit doesn't.
In the older Grovemont-area homes from the 1940s through the '60s, the original masonry fireboxes are still in service, and river-valley fog and cold-air pooling keep them damp — hard on dampers and liners, and worth a look whenever we're out for a repair.
Repairs and new work, one licensed company
For a straight repair — a pilot that won't hold, a failed igniter, a loud blower — we carry the common parts and usually clear it in one visit. When a rebuild calls for a new appliance and a gas line, that's licensed work in North Carolina, and we pull the Buncombe County permit and meet the inspector, so the appliance, venting, gas line, and inspection all come from one accountable company.
We're NFI-certified and service every major hearth brand. A diagnostic is $125, quoted upfront. No-heat calls get prioritized in winter; if you ever smell gas, leave and call (828) 545-0525 from outside.
