grammaticality - "I had my house [be] burned down"


I have found out that using the verb be in passive constructions such as:



I had my house be burned down



is incorrect, therefore it should be



I had my house burned down.



But is it possible instead of be to use get? E.g.



The wire is passed through the pliers in a specific way to avoid having it get bent.
The rope had its surface wear.
The rope had its surface get worn.
The rope had its surface worn.



The first two sound very odd to me, but just for clarification could you please point out the errors and which ones are correct? Or is using get, be it in -ing or the to infinitive, in any situation along with have incorrect?
