What Our Customers Say
See what homeowners in Jackson County and the surrounding areas have to say about our fireplace repair service
“We had our two gas fires serviced by Nolan and Garret and they did an excellent job. They were very respectful of our home. When they worked on the fires they were careful and made sure everything was done perfectly before leaving. The cost of the visit was very reasonable, including parts that needed replacement.”
Garry M
“We have always used The Grate Haus for our fireplace needs! They are always fair, professional, and prompt. We had to have a new gas valve and full repair service done and the technician was very polite and clean when he was in our home!”
Tara B
“The Grate Haus tech did a great job. We appreciated his call that he was only a few minutes away. He gave us time to get our dog out of house. He worked quickly, paid attention to detail, and shared tips. Left our fireplace looking brand new!”

Fireplaces, Stoves and Inserts - We Fix Them All
If it burns gas, wood or pellets or plugs into the wall, we work on it. That goes for built in fireplaces, freestanding stoves and inserts.
Fireplaces: Built into your wall and the centerpiece of the room. We get them lighting, heating and running clean again.
Inserts: Set inside an old masonry fireplace to make it heat better. We fix the controls, blowers, burners and seals that keep them working.
Stoves: Sit right out in the room and do a lot of heavy lifting in the winter. We keep wood and pellet stoves feeding, burning and heating the way they should.
We sell and install all of these too, so our techs are inside fireplaces, stoves and inserts every week. They know what a healthy unit looks like and spot what's off fast.
Not sure what kind you have? No problem. Snap a photo or describe it when you call and we'll take it from there.
Fireplaces are our specialty. Selling, installing and fixing them has been our thing for over 20 years.
We're an authorized retailer. We know these units and the parts that go in them.
We install what we sell. Our techs know how a fireplace is put together, so they find the real problem faster.
We're right here in Jackson. When you call, you talk to our own team, not a national call center. Stop by our showroom on 2418 W. Michigan Ave.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
-
The most common reasons are dead remote batteries, a pilot light that went out or a worn thermocouple or thermopile.
Start by checking the batteries and the wall switch.
If that doesn't do it, give us a call and we'll track down the real cause.
-
Usually it's a dirty or worn out thermocouple or thermopile, the part that tells the gas valve the pilot is lit.
A draft or a dirty pilot assembly can do it too.
It's a quick fix for our techs, and it's not something you want to keep relighting over and over.
-
If you smell gas, see smoke coming into the room or hear something new, stop using it.
Smell gas? Leave the house and call your gas company before anything else.
For anything else that seems off, call us and we'll check it out before you light it again.
-
Soot on a gas fireplace usually means the logs got moved out of place or the air and gas mix is off.
Wiping the glass won't fix the cause.
We'll get the flame burning clean again so the soot doesn't come back.
