Gas Fireplace Repair FAQs
What should I do if my gas fireplace won’t turn on?
Check that the gas valve is open and your thermostat or remote has working batteries. If it still won’t ignite, call a licensed technician. It’s often an ignition or pilot issue that needs professional repair.
Why does my gas fireplace keep shutting off?
A dirty thermocouple, faulty sensor, or venting issue can cause your fireplace to shut down. We diagnose the problem on the spot and fix it safely.
Why won’t my pilot light stay lit?
If the pilot light goes out repeatedly, the thermopile or thermocouple is usually failing. Our techs replace these parts with OEM-approved components.
How much does it cost to repair a gas fireplace?
We provide a 2–3 hour service window and call ahead before arriving
How long does a gas fireplace repair usually take?
Most repairs are completed in a single visit, usually within 1–2 hours. If parts are needed, we stock common components for same-day fixes.
How often should I have my gas fireplace serviced?
We recommend a yearly inspection and cleaning. Regular maintenance prevents costly breakdowns and keeps your fireplace safe.
