In-House Service & Maintenance

The team that installs your fireplace is the team that maintains it. Our own in-house technicians service and care for every fireplace we install — season after season, for as long as you own it.

Our Specialties

One Team.
Every Detail.

At Maxwell Fireplace, we do things differently. From first the conversation to the final flame, we manage every detail in-house — no outside contractors, no extra trades, no hassle. Just one team, one point of contact, and a seamless experience from start to finish.

Condo & Retrofit Installations

We specialize in removing old, outdated fireplaces and replacing them with modern gas or wood-burning inserts — with minimal intrusion and virtually no mess. We handle everything, including municipal permits and strata correspondence, so you don't have to.

New Construction

Building a new home? We work alongside you, your designer, and your builder at every stage — from initial concept and fireplace selection through construction and final finishing. Our involvement ensures your FireSpace™ is integrated beautifully into the overall design, not treated as an afterthought.

Custom Fit & Finish

When an off-the-shelf solution won't do, we design and execute custom surrounds and finishing details tailored to your space and style. No need to coordinate separate trades — our team delivers the complete, polished result.

Our Team. Every Step.

Sales, design consultation, permitting, delivery, installation, and post-installation support — all handled by Maxwell. We are truly a full-service solution, serving homeowners and contractors throughout Greater Vancouver, the North Shore, and the Sea to Sky Corridor from Squamish to Whistler & Pemberton.

How We Collaborate

We Work Alongside You

Every project is unique. Whether you're an architect refining a design, a designer bringing a vision to life, a builder coordinating specifications, or a homeowner choosing your heart's fireplace—we're your trusted partner every step of the way.

Architect

Architects demand precision — and we deliver it. We work alongside licensed professionals from the earliest design stages, providing detailed product specifications, clearance requirements, and technical documentation that integrate seamlessly into your drawings. Our team ensures every fireplace solution meets code requirements while honoring your design intent.

Designer

Great design is in the details. We collaborate with interior designers to match fireplace aesthetics to the broader vision of a space — from contemporary linear gas fires to sculptural wood-burning statements. With our showroom as your resource, you can explore finishes, surrounds, and configurations that bring your concept to life with confidence.

Builder

Builders need reliability and clarity — and that's exactly what we provide. We supply complete product specifications, coordinate delivery timelines, and stay involved through installation to ensure the fireplace is built exactly as designed. No surprises, no miscommunication — just a smooth process from blueprint to final walkthrough.

Homeowner

Your fireplace should feel like home. We take the time to understand your space, your style, and how you live — then guide you through our showroom so you can see, touch, and experience your options firsthand. From the first conversation to the final installation, we make sure you know exactly what you're getting and love every part of it.

"The post installation service blew me away. Noel came to my house and spent 1.5 hours lighting and explaining how my new fireplace worked... He not only explained moisture content of wood but also left behind a wood moisture sensor. I ended up burning some not dry enough wood and it blackened the glass, so I emailed Noel and the next day he dropped by with fireplace glass cleaner!"

"Noel, Meredith and team were an absolute pleasure to work with. They advised us on local municipality rules and guided us to upgrading our fireplace... The service we received from Maxwell was 10/10 and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for anything fireplace related."

"If I could give them ten stars I would. From Hannah in Sales to the First Rate Installers, the whole process was flawless. Noel came to my place and sized the right one to my room and advised me on the FP height and even the mantel height. It all looks great!"

"Every step of our gas insert installation was seamless. What truly sets them apart is how they handle issues. A couple of weeks after installation, a minor problem arose and they resolved it quickly, kindly, and professionally. The service was outstanding, the product is exactly what we wanted."
