Arden, North Carolina

Will the installers remove and haul away my old fireplace or stove?

Yes — for Arden replacements, removing the old setup and hauling it off is included. Most jobs here convert a tired open masonry fireplace into a real heater by pulling the old grate, damper hardware, or worn insert and setting a sealed unit into the existing brick. We cap the gas the licensed way where a line's involved, and the old parts leave with us.

From heat-losing box to sealed heater

Arden's 1980s and 90s homes in Royal Pines and Skyland mostly came with open masonry fireplaces that pull warm air out of the room rather than adding any — and the fix is a sealed insert dropped into that same opening. So what we remove is usually the old guts: a cast grate, an ill-fitting old insert, a worn log set, tired damper hardware. The brick stays. Where a gas line feeds the setup, we shut it off and cap it — licensed work in North Carolina — before anything comes out.

A quick trip back to Emma Rd

Being on Buncombe County's natural-gas mains and only fifteen minutes south of our showroom makes Arden jobs efficient — the old parts and the demo debris load up and head back to Emma Rd the same day, and we pull the county permit and meet the inspector for the new install. The one job that's different is a genuine masonry teardown, where the brick structure itself comes out. That's a mason's task, and if your project calls for it rather than a straight insert conversion, we'll tell you up front.

Want to keep the old one?

If your old insert or stove is worth keeping or selling, say so before install day and we'll set it aside clean. Call (828) 545-0525 to talk through your Arden conversion.
