The few genuinely cool evenings each winter are exactly why Pinecrest homeowners want a real fireplace. We plan, set, vent, and finish wood-burning fireplace installations from start to finish.
A fireplace still earns its place in a South Florida home. When December and January evenings dip into the fifties, there's nothing like a real wood fire — and a well-placed fireplace anchors a living room every other night of the year just by being there. We install factory-built wood-burning fireplaces for remodels and additions, where their engineered clearances and framed chases make them practical to add, and we build the venting route, chase, and terminations that make the whole system work. From the first layout conversation to the finished surround, it's one job with one company responsible for it.
Placement is where installations succeed or fail, so we start there: which wall, how the flue routes past trusses and through the roofline, where the chase lands on the exterior, and how the hearth fits furniture and foot traffic. Clearances to framing are laid out before anything is cut. Then the unit is set, the flue assembled and terminated, and the surround and hearth finished in stone, tile, or stucco to suit the house — whether that's a 1960s Pinecrest ranch getting a family-room addition or a newer Mediterranean-style build. Free written estimates and upfront pricing from day one.

Yes — that's the installation we perform most. Factory-built systems skip the massive foundation a traditional masonry fireplace requires, so they suit a slab-built ranch mid-remodel, with the flue rising inside a framed chase.
Homeowners here think so. The cool season is short but real, and a fireplace gets used hard on exactly those nights. The rest of the year it's the room's centerpiece, and it's a feature buyers notice in this market.
Less than most people expect when it's part of a remodel or addition, since the framing and finishing fold into work already underway. As a standalone project, expect focused work at one wall and the roofline; we protect the space and keep the site orderly day to day.
