Known as the Land of Waterfalls, Brevard and Transylvania County residents count on Steady Flame for dependable fireplace service.

Brevard 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 Brevard, and — unlike a showroom or a mason — we're licensed to run the gas line ourselves. Every combustion install is permitted and inspected through Transylvania County. Since Helene, more homeowners here treat a fireplace as backup heat that works when the grid doesn't.
Stacked stone is the signature mountain fireplace, layers of natural or manufactured stone climbing a wall for a rugged, textured centerpiece. Steady Flame Fireplaces has built these for Western North Carolina homes and cabins since 2005, from floor-to-ceiling chimneys to simple stone surrounds. We plan each project around the appliance and its clearances first, then build the structure to carry the weight of real or veneer stone safely and permanently. The look is timeless; the engineering underneath is what makes it last.
What's Involved
We build the framing and non-combustible backing, set the firebox, and install stone with the right mortar, ties, and support so nothing sags or cracks. Because we are a licensed gas-piping contractor, we can run the gas or propane line and pull the permits in the same project, unlike a mason or stone yard, which cannot connect gas in North Carolina. We finish with a Heat & Glo, Mendota, or Majestic appliance and a mantel to match, delivering a dramatic stone fireplace that also provides dependable, outage-proof backup heat when a storm knocks out the power.
Heating Challenges in Brevard
Transylvania County earns its 'Land of Waterfalls' nickname with some of the highest rainfall in the eastern US — averaging 80+ inches annually. This extreme moisture is hard on masonry chimneys, causing crown cracks, spalling brick, and rusted dampers. Crawl spaces and chimney chases in Brevard homes are especially prone to moisture damage, making a waterproof chimney cap and annual inspection important for any fireplace.
Seasonal Tip for Brevard Homeowners
Brevard's exceptional rainfall makes chimney waterproofing and a quality rain cap smart investments to protect your fireplace year-round. We recommend a professional chimney inspection each fall to catch moisture damage before the wet spring season (March–June) returns.
