Fast, Reliable Fireplace Services Across Spokane
Fireplace service in Spokane typically runs $180-$650 depending on the repair, and most calls are completed same-day when you reach us before noon. We answer our phones live, 24 hours a day, at (844) 803-1545.
We’ve been working in Spokane since 2014. Russell Haines started Hearthstone Chimney Co. with the understanding that a fireplace in a Browne’s Addition craftsman or a North Spokane ranch deserves the same careful attention you’d give your own home. Our technicians know the difference between a 1920s coal-converted flue and a 1970s prefab metal chimney because we’ve cleaned and repaired both, hundreds of times, in zip codes 99205, 99206, 99207, and 99208. When Spokane’s temperature inversions trigger a burn ban from the Spokane Regional Clean Air Agency, you don’t have time to waste on a fireplace that won’t draw properly or a gas insert that won’t ignite. We’ll be there when we say.

Why Hearthstone Chimney Co. Is Spokane’s Preferred Fireplace Services Company
Forty-two years in this trade means we’ve swept chimneys on the South Hill when the mining money was still fresh in the mortar, and we’ve replaced dampers in Spokane Valley ranches built during the post-war boom. Spokane homeowners remember who showed up and who didn’t. Our reputation here was built one appointment at a time, one documented inspection at a time, with photos you can see and a plain-English verdict you can understand.
We don’t chase calls with callbacks or apps. A live person answers the phone every hour of every day. Our background-checked, uniformed technicians carry the parts and materials to complete most fireplace repairs in a single visit, with no-hassle upfront pricing so the number on the estimate is the number on the invoice. That’s a square deal, and it’s how we’ve operated since 2014.
Every job carries our 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing, no arguing. If it’s not right, we come back. A company that plans to be in Spokane in thirty more years acts accordingly.
Our Fireplace Services in Spokane
Gas Fireplace Service
Gas fireplaces in Spokane face a specific challenge: many were retrofitted into original coal or wood-burning flues without proper relining, especially in pre-WWII homes around Browne’s Addition and the lower South Hill. That excess airspace causes flue-gas condensation that produces acidic damage most homeowners mistake for ordinary soot. We inspect with a Level-2 camera, document the condition with photos, and service the burner, pilot assembly, and venting using professional-grade materials. A typical gas fireplace service in Spokane runs $180-$280.

Wood Burning Fireplace
Spokane’s inland continental climate means you’re burning hard from October through March, often through sustained cold snaps below 0°F. That intensity accelerates creosote to stage-2 or stage-3 glazed buildup in a single season, far faster than in marine-climate cities to the west. Because the Spokane Regional Clean Air Agency issues mandatory burn bans during winter inversions, every legal burn day counts. A choked flue wastes those scarce permitted windows. We clean thoroughly and inspect for freeze-thaw damage to mortar joints and brick while we’re at it. Wood-burning fireplace cleaning and inspection in Spokane typically costs $220-$340.

Fireplace Insert
North Spokane and Spokane Valley ranch homes from the 1950s-70s often have original prefabricated metal chimneys that are undersized for today’s high-efficiency insert retrofits. We measure, specify, and install inserts that fit the existing system or recommend our Chimney Liner & Rebuild in Spokane when the flue needs upsizing. Our inserts use professional-grade components from trusted brands, and most installations are completed in a single day. Fireplace insert work in Spokane generally ranges $1,800-$3,200 depending on liner requirements.

Damper Repair
A stuck or rusted damper in a Spokane winter is not a minor annoyance. It means heat loss, smoke backup, or a fireplace you can’t safely use. In older South Hill homes with original throat dampers, we often find corrosion from decades of condensation cycles. We repair or replace with precision-fit dampers that seal properly. Damper repair in Spokane typically runs $280-$450; replacement with a top-sealing damper, which we often recommend for energy efficiency, runs $480-$650 installed.
We also handle Chimney Cap & Crown in Spokane to protect the masonry and flue from the city’s aggressive freeze-thaw cycles.

Trusted Brands We Service in Spokane
We work exclusively with professional-grade materials from industry-trusted manufacturers. For Spokane homes, that means HeatShield refractory mortar for firebox restorations, Gelco chimney caps sized to our local wind and snow loads, and Olympia Chimney stainless steel liners for insert retrofits and relining jobs. We stock common parts and maintain supplier relationships so we’re not waiting on freight while your fireplace sits cold. No builder-grade substitutes. Done right, and we stand behind it.
Common Fireplace Services Problems We See in Spokane Homes
- Creosote glazing from intense burn seasons. Spokane’s sustained sub-zero cold snaps push wood-burning fireplaces harder and longer than coastal climates. We regularly pull stage-3 glazed creosote that formed in a single winter, a fire hazard that standard brushing won’t remove.
- Freeze-thaw mortar damage. Shoulder-season temperature swings of 40°F or more in a single day cause accelerated mortar-joint cracking and brick spalling. We combine every cleaning with a structural crown and joint inspection because the damage is predictable and progressive.
- Improper gas conversions in pre-WWII flues. On the South Hill and in Browne’s Addition, we routinely find 1920s-1930s chimneys where the original oversized coal flue was converted to natural gas without being relined. The acidic condensation this produces damages the flue from the inside out, and it’s nearly invisible without a camera inspection.
- Undersized prefab chimneys for insert retrofits. Post-war ranch homes across North Spokane and the Valley have original metal chimneys that can’t handle the exhaust profile of modern high-efficiency inserts. Installing without addressing this creates a carbon monoxide risk and violates manufacturer clearance requirements.
