Dillsboro is a tiny, historic artisan village on the Tuckasegee River, its walkable Front Street lined with craft shops, potteries, and the depot where the Great Smoky Mountains Railroad turns around. The town's compact 19th-century cottages and the homes scattered up the surrounding hills give it real Appalachian character at about 2,000 feet. There's no natural gas here, so hearths run on propane and wood, fitting for a village that leans into its handcrafted, old-fashioned charm. After Helene, area residents put fresh value on a fireplace that keeps a historic home warm during an outage.

Dillsboro 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 Dillsboro, and — unlike a showroom or a mason — we're licensed to run the gas line ourselves. Every combustion install is permitted and inspected through Jackson County. Since Helene, more homeowners here treat a fireplace as backup heat that works when the grid doesn't.

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.
