Why Alber's

Factory-Trained, NJ-Certified

Alber's Fireplaces has been servicing hearth products across Central New Jersey since 1976. Our technicians are NFI-certified and factory-trained on all major brands—Mendota, Heat & Glo, Heatilator, and more.

We're not a general HVAC company that happens to work on fireplaces. Hearth products are all we do, and that singular focus means faster diagnoses, better repairs, and fewer callbacks.

Every service call starts with an honest diagnostic. We tell you exactly what's wrong, what it'll cost, and whether a repair makes more sense than a replacement. No upselling, no unnecessary parts.
