Lake Junaluska is the historic Methodist assembly and retreat community built around a serene 200-acre lake in the shadow of the Great Smokies, its shoreline lined with genteel cottages, inns, and second homes. Many of the residences are older seasonal cottages now used year-round, and their fireplaces are as much a part of the retreat experience as the lakeside walking path. There's no natural gas here, so hearths burn propane or wood, and homeowners want clean, reliable heat that suits a historic cottage. Since Helene, even part-time residents have asked for a fireplace that can warm the house during a winter outage.

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 Lake Junaluska and Haywood 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 Haywood County. A sound chimney is exactly what lets Lake Junaluska 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.
