Fireplace Repair for Port Coquitlam homes

Port Coquitlam homes run their systems hard — winter lows around 0–3 °C and summer highs of 23–27 °C mean equipment here rarely gets a quiet season. Solidly established: 1960s–80s family homes across Birchland Manor and Mary Hill, newer development in Citadel Heights and Riverwood, and townhome infill through the central area. That mix is why we carry parts for both older and current equipment on the van.

Our Surrey showroom has working fireplaces on display. Choosing one from a photograph is guesswork; seeing the flame and feeling the heat is not.

  • The pilot light won't stay lit
  • The fireplace won't ignite from the switch or remote
  • Sooting or black residue on the glass
  • A gas smell near the unit
  • The blower is noisy or has stopped
  • The flame looks lazy, yellow or uneven

Recognise any of these? Call us at (604) 572-7944 — the sooner we look at it, the smaller the repair usually is.

Our process

How a repair call works

  1. You call, we book

    A person answers and gives you a real arrival window — not a nine-hour range.

  2. Full diagnostic

    We test the system rather than guessing from the symptom, so the fault we fix is the one you actually have.

  3. Price before work

    You get the cost and the options in plain language, and you decide before anything is opened up.

  4. Repair and verify

    We complete the repair, then run the system and confirm it performs the way it should before we leave.

Local knowledge

What we watch for in Port Coquitlam

Sheltered between the Coquitlam and Pitt Rivers. Milder than neighbouring Coquitlam's uplands, with summer highs that climb a little past the coastal cities.

  • Port Coquitlam's compact lots put neighbours close together, so condenser noise ratings and placement matter more here than on larger suburban properties.
  • The 1960s–80s housing stock often has undersized or leaky original ductwork; we test and correct it rather than hanging a new system on old duct and hoping.
  • Riverside areas near the Coquitlam and Pitt Rivers can have damp crawlspaces, which is worth addressing before it shortens the life of a new furnace.

The City of Port Coquitlam handles mechanical permitting; gas fitting is under Technical Safety BC regulation. We pull the permits.
