Fireplace services we provide in Rochester
Fireplace repair
Miller Brick repairs fireplaces that won’t light, pilots that won’t stay lit, and units that run without giving off heat. We also handle black soot on the glass, remotes that stop responding, and vent caps blocked by ice or snow.
Fireplace maintenance and cleaning
Gas fireplaces need far less maintenance than wood-burning units, but a professional should still check yours once a year. A yearly check keeps your fireplace performing at an optimal level and heating efficiently for longer.
Annual check-ups: We test the ignition, thermocouple, and gas connections, check the vent and door gasket, and clean the burner and pilot assembly.
Cleaning and maintenance: We clean the glass and firebox and set the logs back to the manufacturer’s diagram.
Fan issues: If your fireplace fan is loud, slow, or not running at all, we work out what’s wrong and repair it.
Other service issues: Describe what your fireplace is doing and we’ll take a look.
Fireplace installation and replacement
Miller Brick installs gas and electric fireplaces, and the showroom has working gas fireplaces on display.
New fireplace installation: We install new fireplaces in new builds, additions, and rooms that don’t have one yet.
Upgrade an existing fireplace: We upgrade the fireplace you have with a gas insert or gas log set.
Unit replacement: We replace an older fireplace with a new, more efficient model.
We also stock a variety of masonry support panel systems as an alternative to traditional mortar installation on your next project. Our construction experience takes the decision-making off your hands.
Indoor and outdoor fireplaces
Indoors, the repair, maintenance, and installation work above applies to the fireplace in your home. Outdoors, Miller Brick carries a full selection of outdoor units and provides fireplace service for your patio or backyard.
Gas and electric fireplace services
Gas fireplaces, inserts, and log sets
A home without a chimney gets a zero clearance direct vent fireplace. An existing masonry fireplace can take a gas insert, which improves efficiency and cuts draft, ash, and smoke, or a gas log set. Gas is a low-maintenance alternative to wood that starts with a switch or remote, heats the rooms you use, and is estimated to save homeowners 25% on energy costs. Many gas fireplaces also keep working during a power outage, depending on the ignition system.
Miller Brick does not currently offer vent-free options. Tell us whether your home has a chimney and we’ll recommend the right gas fireplace, insert, or log set.
Electric fireplaces
Electric works where venting isn’t possible. Miller Brick carries a wide range of Heatilator electric fireplaces and services and installs electric units from all three brands. Many models plug in with no formal installation, which suits smaller spaces, offices, condos, and apartments. Electric is a cost-effective, low-maintenance way to add warmth and style, and an alternative to portable space heaters, which can pose a fire hazard. Name the room you have in mind and we’ll recommend an electric fireplace that fits.
