Gas Fireplace Repair

Full diagnosis and repair for a fireplace that won't turn on, won't stay lit, or is running unevenly — most fixed in one visit.

Gas Fireplace Repair Overview

"It just won't light" is the single most common call we get, and it almost never means the whole unit is done. A gas fireplace that won't turn on, keeps shutting off, or burns with a weak or uneven flame usually has one specific, fixable cause — a fouled pilot assembly, a failed thermocouple or thermopile, a burner clogged with dust and pet hair, or a control board that's lost its signal — and the fix depends on identifying which one it actually is.

A repair visit starts with watching the unit actually try to light, not just looking at it cold, since how it fails tells us most of what we need to know: clicking with no flame points one direction, a flame that won't hold points another. From there we test the gas valve, pilot and ignition components, and burner assembly before recommending anything — most repairs are completed in a single visit once the real cause is identified.

What's Included With Gas Fireplace Repair

  • On-site diagnosis while the unit attempts to ignite, not a cold inspection
  • Pilot assembly, thermocouple/thermopile, and ignition system testing
  • Burner and orifice inspection for clogs or misalignment
  • Gas valve and control board check
  • Full test cycle before we leave, including flame quality and shutoff response

Frequently Asked Questions — Gas Fireplace Repair

Why won't my gas fireplace turn on at all?

The most common causes are a pilot light that's gone out, a failed thermocouple or thermopile (the safety sensor that tells the gas valve it's safe to stay open), or a tripped wall switch/remote receiver. We test each in order rather than guessing which one it is.

How much does gas fireplace repair typically cost?

Most single-visit repairs (pilot assembly cleaning, thermocouple replacement, switch issues) run $95–$275. A control valve or burner repair runs higher — we'll always give you a firm price before starting, based on what we actually find.

How long does a gas fireplace repair visit take?

Most repair visits run 45–90 minutes once a technician is on-site, depending on what's actually wrong and whether a part needs to be sourced.
