About Us

The Miller Family has owned and operated Louisiana Fireplace since 2015. The Millers carry on the legacy started by the Allison Family in 1977. This is a family business that cares about your family and home. We bought the Handy Chimney Sweep in 2018, when Mr. Karl Handy retired. He trained our first sweep, Lainie, and she became the first CSIA sweep in Cenla.

Our mission is to serve our customers and our community.

Each customer’s home is as unique as the family inside it. We understand that, and we know that it is where you gather the people that you love. So our staff will work hard to find creative solutions to the challenges of maintaining your fireplace and your home.

We want you to Enjoy Home More

At Louisiana Fireplace, we carry a full line of fireplace products.

Whether you prefer the roar and crackle of a wood-burning fireplace or stove, the ease of a gas fireplace, or the simplicity of an electric fireplace, we have something for you. Our trained staff will work hard to ensure that your fireplace and your home are functional, beautiful, and affordable.
