Fireplace Hearth Installation
Custom fireplace hearth installation for Western North Carolina, building safe, code-clearance hearths in stone, tile, brick, or concrete.
Professional Fireplace Hearth Installation in Asheville & Western NC
The hearth is the floor of your fireplace, the surface that extends into the room and protects it from heat and embers. Steady Flame Fireplaces builds hearths that are both a design centerpiece and a properly sized safety zone. We size every hearth to the appliance's listed clearances, so the material in front of and around the firebox meets code and stands up to real heat for decades. Raised, flush, or hearth-to-floor, we build to match your space and your fuel.
What's Involved
We start with the firebox and its clearance requirements, then build the hearth base and set your chosen surface, natural stone, tile, brick, or poured concrete, on a heat-rated, non-combustible foundation. When the project includes a new gas or propane appliance, our licensed gas-piping team can run the line and pull the permits in the same visit, something a stone yard or tile setter cannot legally do in North Carolina. A correctly built hearth keeps a wood or gas fireplace safe to run all winter, including as backup heat when the power goes out.
