Fireplace Sales & Installation in
Des Moines, IA
Professional fireplace installation designed for comfort, beauty, and lasting performance.
When homeowners search “fireplace store near me” or “fireplace installation in Des Moines,” they’re usually trying to figure out two things:
What kind of fireplace should we get?
And who can actually install it correctly?
Many people are surprised to learn that installing or upgrading a fireplace involves more than just choosing something that looks good in the living room. Venting, clearances, gas connections, and chimney compatibility all play a role in how well the system works.
At Freedom Chimney & Masonry, we help homeowners all across the greater Des Moines area choose and install fireplaces and stoves that match their home, heating needs, and chimney system. Instead of pushing whatever happens to be sitting on a showroom floor, we help you select the right unit through trusted manufacturer catalogs and then handle the professional installation.
Our services include fireplace sales, stove installation, fireplace conversions, remodeling projects, and the accessories that help fireplaces operate safely and efficiently.
Fireplace Sales & New Fireplace Installation
One of the most common questions we hear is:
"We want a fireplace… but we’re not sure what type we should install."
Different homes require different fireplace systems depending on venting options, available space, and heating goals.
We help homeowners choose the right fireplace through our catalog-based gas fireplace sales, wood fireplace sales, and electric fireplace sales. For homeowners looking for alternative heating options, we also offer pellet stove sales and wood stove sales.
Once the right system is selected, our team handles the installation process. This includes professional fireplace installation, specialized direct vent fireplace installation, and modern electric fireplace installation for homes that don’t have a traditional chimney.
Stove Installation Services
Stoves remain one of the most effective ways to heat a home during Iowa winters.
Homeowners often call us saying:
"We’re thinking about installing a wood stove to help heat the house."
Whether you’re installing a stove for primary heating or supplemental warmth, proper installation is essential for safety and performance.
Our team provides professional wood stove installation and pellet stove installation, ensuring the stove is vented correctly and installed according to manufacturer and safety requirements.
When installed properly, modern stoves can dramatically improve heating efficiency while creating a warm and inviting space in the home.
Older fireplaces often lose more heat than they produce. That’s why many homeowners choose to upgrade their fireplace with our wood burning insert installation. Upgrading to a wood insert can turn an underperforming fireplace into a powerful heat source during the winter.

Fireplace Gas Conversions & Remodeling
Sometimes the goal isn’t installing a new fireplace — it’s improving or upgrading an existing one.
We often hear homeowners say:
"We love the fireplace, but we wish it was gas instead of wood."
Our team provides professional fireplace conversion services, including complete fireplace conversion to gas for homeowners looking for convenience and cleaner burning fuel.
During these projects we also install proper gas supply through fireplace gas line installation, ensuring the new system operates safely. This allows homeowners the ability to install a beautiful set of gas logs or a high efficiency gas insert.
Older fireplaces often lose more heat than they produce. That’s why many homeowners choose to upgrade their fireplace with a modern insert.
We help homeowners improve heating performance through gas fireplace insert sales and professional gas fireplace insert installation.
Gas fireplace inserts are designed to fit inside an existing fireplace opening while providing significantly better heat output and energy efficiency.
Upgrading to a gas insert can turn an underperforming fireplace into a powerful secondary heat source during the winter.
Many remodeling projects also include custom masonry upgrades such as fireplace stonework to enhance the appearance of the fireplace and surrounding wall.
Fireplace Gas Logs & Interior Upgrades
For homeowners who want the look of a traditional fire without the work of burning wood, gas logs can be a great solution.
We install realistic log systems through fireplace gas log installation, and we offer decorative options of fireplace log sets designed to match different fireplace styles.
Gas log systems provide the appearance of a wood-burning fire while offering the convenience of gas operation.
Fireplace Doors, Surrounds & Finishing Details
Once a fireplace is installed or remodeled, the finishing details make a big difference in both safety and appearance.
Our team installs custom components including fireplace door installation to improve safety and control airflow.
We also provide fireplace surround installation, which frames the fireplace opening with stone, tile, or other decorative materials to create a finished look.
These upgrades help turn the fireplace into a true centerpiece of the room.
Fireplace Accessories & Parts
Keeping a fireplace running smoothly sometimes requires replacement components or performance upgrades.
We supply a variety of fireplace equipment including fireplace accessories, replacement fireplace parts, and protective fireplace screen sales.
For improved comfort and heat distribution, we also provide fireplace blower installation that help circulate warm air into the room.
Modern convenience upgrades are also available, including fireplace remote controls that allow homeowners to easily operate their fireplace from across the room.
