What will a fireplace install cost in Cedarwood, Markham?
Five questions, real Cedarwood, Markham pricing. You get an installed price band including venting, gas, finishing and permit — before anyone calls you.
Gas is still the right answer for most homes in Cedarwood, Markham: real heat during an outage-prone winter, no wood to store, and instant control. We install direct-vent sealed-combustion units, run the gas line, handle the permit, and hand you a commissioning sheet with the actual gas pressure and CO readings recorded.
Direct-vent done properly
Termination clearances to windows, decks, and property lines in Cedarwood, Markham are code-controlled and frequently ignored by cheap installers. We plan the termination before selecting the unit.
Gas line and pressure
An undersized line starves the appliance and shows as a lazy yellow flame. We size the run to the appliance's BTU rating and verify with a manometer at commissioning.
Safety documentation
Every install leaves with a commissioning sheet: inlet and manifold pressure, spillage test result, CO reading, and the technician's TSSA number.

What Markham customers say
4.9 out of 5 from 743 reviews across the GTA. A selection relevant to this service below.
I wanted a bigger unit. They explained why it would overheat the room and recommended a smaller model — and were right.
Quoted in writing with every line itemised. Install took one day, the finishing is clean, and they registered the warranty for me.
Old builder-grade unit out, new direct-vent in, and the old one hauled away. Zero mess left behind.
Serviced the unit, replaced a gasket, and told me the blower had years left rather than selling me one.
