Fireplace & Wood Stove Service in Des Moines
We service the whole appliance, not just the chimney above it — door gaskets, glass, baffles, firebricks, and the draft issues that are especially common on wind-exposed Des Moines homes. If your fireplace smokes back when the wind comes off the water, we'll find out why.
From open masonry fireplaces in older Marine View homes to EPA-certified wood stoves and inserts, we tune, clean, and repair so the appliance burns hot, clean, and safe.

Fireplace & Wood Stove Service — your questions
My fireplace smokes back when it's windy — why?
Exposed bluff homes get downdrafts that push smoke into the room. A wind-rated cap, a top-sealing damper, or a flue adjustment usually solves it. We diagnose the exact cause first.
Do you service wood stoves and inserts?
Yes — we clean and inspect the stove, flue, gaskets, and baffles and confirm the install still meets clearance and venting requirements.
Can you reseal leaky stove doors?
We replace worn gaskets and rope seals and re-cement loose glass so your stove burns efficiently and safely again.
