Our approach to electric fireplaces in Belle Isle
Two parts of the job our fireplace specialists explain to homeowners in Belle Isle before install day.
Planning a full media wall
A media wall combines the fireplace, the TV and often shelves or cabinets in one built-out surface. It needs framing sized to the fireplace manual, outlets and cable paths for each device, and a finish that ties it together.
We draw the wall out with you, mark every opening and outlet and check them against the fireplace manual before framing starts. The estimate breaks the wall into parts, so you can see what the framing, the fireplace installation and the finish each involve.
Closing drafts behind an insert
An old fireplace opening is connected to the chimney above it, which means moving air, stray debris and sometimes water. Dimplex's XHD manual says to seal all drafts and vents in an existing opening with a non-fibrous insulation material to prevent chimney debris from falling onto the unit.
We close the damper or the throat as the insert manual directs and seal the openings around it. The work is listed on your estimate, and we note what was done, so anyone who looks at the chimney later knows the opening has been closed off.
Who to call about what
Two kinds of coverage apply to an electric fireplace. The maker covers the product under its own warranty terms, and our workmanship warranty covers the installation we perform.
We keep those separate on your paperwork. If the bracket we set works loose or the trim we fitted pulls away, that is ours to fix. If the heater or flame motor fails, we help you with the maker's process. Keep the estimate, the manual and the invoice together.
A tight finish at the trim
The trim around a built-in electric fireplace frames the whole unit, and gaps or uneven reveals show at a glance. The finish material has to meet the trim cleanly without covering vents or the heater outlet.
We set the unit level, then fit the finish to it, checking the reveal all the way around. Where drywall meets the trim, the edge is straight and painted. Where tile or stone meets it, the cuts are clean. It is the detail people notice most.

Asked in Belle Isle about installing an electric fireplace
Still deciding? These answers help, and the inspection in Belle Isle is free.
Can every electric fireplace be recessed into a wall?
No. The manual lists the mounting styles each model allows, and a unit made to hang on the surface may need open space around its vents. We check your model before planning any opening.
Will you install a fireplace I bought online?
Yes. Send us the model number when you book so we can read its manual before the visit. If the model does not suit your wall, we tell you before anything is cut.
