New Built-In Fireplaces for Stockton Homes
A new built-in fireplace is a standalone unit designed for new construction or a full remodel. Modern direct-vent fireplaces draw combustion air from outside and exhaust directly outdoors through a sealed system — making them safe, efficient, and flexible in placement.
Gas & Propane Fireplaces
Instant ambiance at the flip of a switch. Gas fireplaces are the most popular choice for Stockton homeowners who want reliable heat and stunning flame displays with zero mess. Popular models include Valor L2 and LT2, Kozy Heat Bayport, Springfield, and Nordik TL, Fireplace Xtrordinair 864 Series and 6015 Linear, Town & Country TC42, and Montigo Distinction.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a fireplace and a fireplace insert?
A new built-in fireplace is a standalone unit for new construction or a major remodel. A fireplace insert is installed inside your existing fireplace opening and uses your existing chimney — a more economical upgrade for Stockton homeowners who already have a masonry or zero-clearance fireplace.
What fuel type is best for my Stockton home?
Gas and electric fireplaces are the most popular for ease of use and low maintenance. Wood-burning units deliver the most authentic experience, while pellet inserts offer great automation and efficiency. Our Sacramento showroom experts can help you choose based on your home and lifestyle.
Do you carry both traditional and modern styles?
Absolutely. Our Sacramento showroom carries traditional, contemporary, linear, corner, bay, and see-through fireplace styles across all fuel types — gas, wood, pellet, and electric.
How long does fireplace or insert installation take?
Most installations are completed in one day. Our team will give you a clear timeline during your free on-site consultation.
Do you service fireplaces and inserts after installation?
Yes. Our service department handles annual maintenance, warranty work, and repairs for all fireplace and insert types — gas, wood, pellet, and electric. Call 916.282.4614 to schedule service.
