Located just outside Brevard near the entrance to Pisgah National Forest, Pisgah Forest is a natural extension of our Transylvania County service area. Steady Flame provides fireplaces, inserts, and chimney service to Pisgah Forest homeowners who face the challenges of living in one of the wettest areas in the eastern United States.

A fireplace or stove is only as safe as the chimney and venting behind it. Steady Flame inspects, sweeps, relines, caps, and repairs chimneys and vents throughout Pisgah Forest and Transylvania County — clearing creosote and blockages, correcting draft problems, and making sure every flue draws cleanly. Where the job calls for it, we permit and inspect the work through Transylvania County. A sound chimney is exactly what lets Pisgah Forest homeowners rely on a wood or gas fireplace as real heat all winter — including when a storm takes the power down.

The chimney crown is the sloped slab of concrete or mortar that covers the top of the masonry and directs rainwater away from the flue and brick. Freeze-thaw cycles in the mountains crack crowns quickly, and once water works in, it spreads into the joints below and accelerates spalling. Steady Flame repairs hairline cracks with flexible crown coating and rebuilds crowns that have deteriorated beyond patching.
