Generally, custom masonry work or stone veneers increase labor costs, while choosing a pre-fabricated insert can be more budget-friendly. You will also need to consider the complexity of the chimney installation or venting modifications needed to meet local codes. Adding features like glass doors, blowers, or decorative mantels will also shift your total. We can provide you with exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
