How a job runs
Tell us. We spec it. We install it.

Tell us the opening
Form or call. Site address, wood or gas, photos of the opening or the wall. Browse the portfolio first if you want a starting point.
02
We spec the unit
Fuel, size, and venting matched to the house. The quote is the unit, the install, and the masonry, not the box alone. Permit when the township wants one. WETT on wood. Gas fitting on gas and propane.
03
Install, light, stay on it
Certified installers set the unit. You get the walkthrough and the manuals. Yard visits are by appointment.
04
Service and tech help
Annual cleaning, glass, gaskets, a burner that will not light. Call or text the yard. Same crew that installed it. 705-943-4141.
A new fire
Start a project.
Tell us the site and what you want the fire to do. We spec the unit, the chase, the surround, and the flue as one job. The quote is the unit + surround + hearth pad + flue, not the box alone.
A unit you already have
Book a service call.
Pilot out, won’t light, annual clean, chimney, or a WETT inspection. Brand, model, and a photo of the rating plate get the right parts on the truck.

Straight answers.
Do you supply and install fireplaces in Huron Shores?

The yard is at 1413 Basswood Lake Road, Huron Shores, Ontario, about five minutes from Thessalon. Call 705-943-4141 or use the project form.
Who actually installs it?
Licensed gas technicians install and service gas and propane. WETT-certified installers set wood fireplaces, stoves, and inserts. Masonry, framing, and finish trades are coordinated on the same ticket.
Wood or gas?
Wood for heat when the grid is down. Gas for everyday convenience. Every gas unit we quote has a propane path when the lot is not on natural gas.
Which makers do you work with?
The brand wall is the lineup we specify, including RSF, Pacific Energy, Ventis, Blaze King, Jøtul, Stûv, J.A. Roby, Kozy Heat, Heat & Glo, Regency, Ortal, DaVinci, Town & Country, Laminox, Harman, and Quadra-Fire. We spec the unit to the opening.
Where do you work?
The yard is in Huron Shores, in the Algoma corridor, near Thessalon and Sowerby. Projects and service calls are booked from there. Call before you drive out. The yard is by appointment.
Do you service units you did not sell?
Yes. Send the brand, model, and a photo of the rating plate. We look at most residential wood, gas, and propane units on the Algoma corridor.
Can you do a WETT inspection?
Yes. Book it on the service form. Insurers often want a current WETT inspection on a wood appliance before they will write the policy.
Can I walk a showroom?
The yard at 1413 Basswood Lake Road is by appointment. The September 2026 portfolio is the live selection. Call before you drive out.
What does a project cost?
An installed fireplace is scoped to the opening. We quote the unit, the install, and the masonry around it. Cash-and-carry wood stoves with a keyed list price are on the store, twelve percent under that list. Pickup is at the yard. Delivery is $100 within about an hour of Thessalon.
