The Easiest Fireplace Revival There Is

Why Choose an Electric Insert

An electric insert turns a dead or drafty fireplace opening into a living focal point without touching the flue: Slide it in, plug it in, done.

Modern flame effects are genuinely convincing—layered fire, glowing logs, and optional heat—with none of the combustion, venting, or service schedule.

We'll size it to your opening and finish it clean, so the room gets its centerpiece back in an afternoon.

"Can’t begin to say enough about our positive experience with Tate Builders Supply. Fourteen years ago we visited their show room looking for a fireplace costing $8,000, but the salesman, Tim Duncan, suggested a lower costing brand. It has been just wonderful all these years. Embarrassing we have not had the fireplace serviced until today. Jimmy did a wonderful job. He showed us several things about the fireplace we never knew, like that there are ambient lights in the rear. I highly recommend Tate Building Supply and their employees."

"Tate Builders did a phenomenal job working on my natural gas fireplace. I could not be happier! They promptly scheduled my appointment, diagnosed and fixed the problem within 30 minutes, cleaned the fireplace to make it look like new, added some aesthetic charm, charged me an exceptionally reasonable rate, and Jim could not have been better to work with. He was professional and courteous and took the time to educate me about my fireplace as he was working. Perfect experience all around. I will absolutely go back to them again for regular maintenance and any further issues."

Megan Mersch · Google Review

"Tate Builders did an absolutely fantastic job repairing my chimney and replacement my entire fireplace. The work was extensive and my family and I were amazed at how efficient they worked. Within two days, 95% of the work was done! Plus, the men were kind and friendly around my family and that was very surprising. I couldn't recommend Tate Builders more highly!"

Before You Order

Common Questions About Electric Inserts

Plain-language answers, including the one about price.

Call Now

What is an electric fireplace insert?

A plug-in unit that fits into an existing fireplace opening and gives you a realistic flame effect with optional heat, with no gas line, no venting, and no chimney work.

Is it a real heater?

Most include a heater that warms a small to medium room. It won't replace a furnace, but it takes the chill off and the flame runs with the heat on or off.

Can you install it?

Yes. If the opening needs trimming or a surround to finish it cleanly, our team handles the whole job.
