Cost of fireplace installation — San Antonio, TX
Last updated: September 24, 2026
What affects the price
Fireplace pricing depends on your specific setup. If you already have a gas line or a chimney in place, the work is much simpler and cheaper. Installing from scratch requires more labor, including framing, venting, and finishing work with stone or tile. The type of unit—whether it is gas, wood, or electric—also changes the budget significantly. Larger units or custom hearth designs naturally add to the cost compared to basic inserts. We can discuss your project details and get exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
