What affects the price
When you start pricing out an electric fireplace, a few main things change the bottom line. First, size matters—a massive wall-mounted unit or a custom built-in insert will cost more than a standard portable heater. If you want high-end features like realistic 3D flame effects, smart home integration, or crackling sound components, expect to pay more for the technology. Installation also shifts the cost; simple plug-and-play models are cheaper than those requiring hardwiring or carpentry work. We can help you break down your specific project requirements, with exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
About this service
Adding a mantel to an electric fireplace gives your unit a finished, professional appearance. This service involves fitting a custom or stock surround around your existing insert to frame it correctly. You should look into this if your current setup feels incomplete or if you want to display decor above the firebox. Prices depend on the materials used, like wood or stone veneers. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
Summer is the perfect time to use your fireplace as a purely visual feature. Since you can run the flames without the heater, it adds a soft, ambient glow to your evening gatherings. It stays cool to the touch, making it safe for kids and pets even on hot days.
