Bakersville is a small, remote county seat in Mitchell County, nestled below Roan Mountain where the famous rhododendron gardens bloom and the Toe River threads through steep, rugged terrain. At nearly 2,500 feet with high ridges all around, winters here are long and serious, and homes are spread up isolated coves far from any gas main. Heating means propane and wood, and a strong hearth is essential in a place where snow can close the roads. Helene's damage across Mitchell County underscored how vital reliable, self-sufficient heat is in this out-of-the-way corner of the mountains.

Bakersville is propane country — gas hearths here run off an owner-owned or leased tank, which changes line sizing, regulator setup, and BTU planning compared to a natural-gas town. We install gas, wood, and electric fireplaces, inserts, and stoves in Bakersville, and — unlike a showroom or a mason — we're licensed to run the gas line ourselves. Every combustion install is permitted and inspected through Mitchell County. Since Helene, more homeowners here treat a fireplace as backup heat that works when the grid doesn't.

Choosing a fireplace company is choosing who you'll call for years — for the install, yes, but also for the tune-up before winter, the pilot that won't light on a cold morning, and the upgrade a decade down the road. Steady Flame Fireplaces has been that company for Western North Carolina families since 2005: locally owned, deeply rooted in these mountains, and staffed by NFI-certified technicians who live and work where you do. We're a full-service hearth company, which means we don't disappear after the sale.
