Steady Flame Fireplaces has been the licensed hearth team that Fletcher area homeowners trust since 2005.

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 Fletcher and Henderson 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 Henderson County. A sound chimney is exactly what lets Fletcher homeowners rely on a wood or gas fireplace as real heat all winter — including when a storm takes the power down.
Flashing is the layered metal seal where the chimney passes through the roof, and it's one of the most common sources of interior water stains wrongly blamed on the chimney itself. When flashing lifts, corrodes, or loses its sealant, rain tracks down into the attic, ceilings, and framing around the chimney chase. Steady Flame repairs and replaces step and counter-flashing to restore a fully watertight transition.
Finding the Real Leak
We pull back the failed sections, install properly layered step flashing, and lock counter-flashing into the mortar joint before sealing with a durable, weather-rated compound. Because flashing problems often mimic crown or cap leaks, we trace the actual entry point rather than just re-caulking the surface. Stopping water here protects both the framing and the fireplace system below, since chronic leaks rust dampers and rot the wood structure supporting your hearth.
Heating Challenges in Fletcher
Fletcher's location along the I-26 corridor brings steady development with new homes and commercial properties that are ideal for modern gas fireplaces and linear designs. The area near the Asheville Regional Airport has more commercial demand for gas fireplaces and outdoor fire features than surrounding residential communities. Fletcher's mix of 1990s-era subdivisions and new construction means many homeowners are ready to upgrade a dated fireplace to a high-efficiency insert.
Seasonal Tip for Fletcher Homeowners
If you're in a Fletcher home built in the 1990s–2000s, your original builder-grade fireplace is likely inefficient and drafty. Fall is the perfect time to upgrade to a sealed gas fireplace or a high-efficiency wood or gas insert before the holidays and the coldest months arrive.
