Expert Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Elimination
Protect your home by removing soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. You will decrease chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and keep combustion byproducts venting safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to shield interiors. Perform flue brushing with correctly fitted poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Vacuum with a HEPA system to manage fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to detect glazed deposits that require mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clean the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and ensure the cap and spark arrestor are free of debris. Discard debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and reliable draft for dependable operation.
Comprehensive Safety Evaluations and Inspections
Before starting your first fire of the season, schedule a Level I-III inspection that follows NFPA 211 to ensure that your chimney and fireplace meet your fireplace and chimney setup. Level I examines standard safety requirements, and Level II adds comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
As part of our evaluation, we record the integrity of the liner, crown and cap status, and clearances to combustibles and proper termination and draft levels. We run ventilation testing to verify appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our inspection includes damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, gas log safety, appliance connections, and CO pathways. You'll get a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
Professional Chimney Services and Masonry Solutions
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we quickly implement focused chimney rehabilitation, relining, and masonry fixes to restore structural integrity and safe draft. We evaluate crumbling brick, crown damage, mortar deterioration, and liner issues, then implement code-compliant solutions. You receive precise tuckpointing, crown rebuilding with proper drip edges, and cap installations that protect flue ventilation and shed water.
For damaged liners through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, we expertly fit high-quality stainless or ceramic liner solutions perfectly sized to match your appliance's BTU output and height, maximizing airflow while minimizing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers using specialized parging techniques to improve draft efficiency. Our masonry services encompass brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and stone sealing to prevent moisture and salt infiltration. We maintain detailed records of all repairs, includes pressure testing where needed, and comes with a comprehensive warranty.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Transition to a cleaner, safer, and more efficient hearth with code‑compliant fireplace upgrades, premium-performance inserts, and smart modernization. You'll boost performance, decrease pollutants, and meet current WA codes. We assess fireplace condition, chimney capacity, and clearances, then suggest energy efficient inserts matched to your home's load, fuel type, and venting path. Direct‑vent gas, EPA‑certified wood, or pellet inserts deliver airtight operation, better heat distribution, and dependable ventilation control.
Our team replaces worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, install insulated stainless liners when required, and verify hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With advanced fireplace controls, you can control ignition, set temperature limits, integrate remote monitoring, and include safety lockouts. We finalize every upgrade with thorough testing and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Fixing Smoke, Draft, and Odor Issues
After upgrading inserts and controls, proper system ventilation remains essential. Inadequate draft, smoke spillage, and unwanted smells commonly result from negative pressure, blocked flues, or incorrect damper and cap geometry. We assess stack effect, check draft levels using manometers, and examine cross-sectional measurements, liner continuity, and termination height.
We address restrictions, remove creosote, and set balanced airflow across the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust components. We provide precisely tuned air flow, balanced dampers, and proper sealing to prevent back-puffing. We repair ash dump problems, smoke chamber alignment issues, and improperly fitted hearth units.
To control unwanted smells, we seal voids, improve seasonal ventilation and recommend dry fuel and proper cures for masonry. For areas with high winds, we install wind-baffling caps. We confirm effectiveness through smoke testing and CO level verification for complete safety.
