Comprehensive Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Cleaning
Safeguard your property by eliminating soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. This will reduce chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and ensure combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, suitable PPE, and containment to protect interiors. Execute flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to dislodge all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to identify glazed deposits that demand mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clear the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and ensure the cap and spark arrestor are clear. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and reliable draft for dependable operation.
Thorough Safety Inspections and Evaluations
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, schedule a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to verify that your chimney and fireplace meet your heating system. A Level I inspection checks clearances and general condition, whereas Level II adds video scanning of flues and accessible areas. A Level III assessment examines hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
During your assessment, 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 adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our safety checklist covers damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll get a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Professional Chimney Services and Masonry Solutions
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we quickly implement targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration to restore structural integrity and safe draft. We assess crumbling brick, crown damage, mortar deterioration, and liner issues, before applying code-approved repairs. We provide professional tuckpointing, crown reconstruction with effective drip edges, and cap fitting that maintain proper airflow and water protection.
When your liner shows signs of damage through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, we professionally install high-quality stainless or ceramic liner solutions custom-fitted to your appliance's BTU output and height, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. Our team improves smoke chambers using specialized parging techniques to achieve smoother flow. Our masonry services encompass replacing damaged bricks, stabilizing lintels and stone sealing to prevent dampness and salt intrusion. Every repair is thoroughly documented, undergoes pressure testing as required, and includes warranty coverage.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Transition to a safer, cleaner, and more efficient hearth with fireplace improvements that meet code requirements, high‑efficiency inserts, and smart modernization. You'll improve operation, lower environmental impact, and comply with WA codes. We examine hearth integrity, chimney capacity, and safety distances, then propose energy efficient inserts sized for your home's requirements, energy source, and ventilation system. Direct‑vent gas, EPA‑certified wood, or pellet inserts provide controlled burning, improved heat transfer, and dependable ventilation control.
Our team replaces worn dampers with high-performance sealing mechanisms, add insulated stainless liners where necessary, and confirm hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With advanced fireplace controls, you can automate ignition, establish temperature limits, implement remote monitoring, and add safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with combustion checks and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Solving Smoke, Draft, and Odor Issues
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Draft issues, smoke problems, and unpleasant odors typically stem from improper pressure, clogged flues, or misaligned damper and cap configurations. Our team evaluates stack effect, uses manometers for draft measurement, and confirms cross-sectional dimensions, liner continuity, and termination height.
We address restrictions, remove creosote, and set balanced airflow across the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust components. We provide optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to stop smoke backdrafts. We address leaking ash dumps, smoke chamber irregularities, and poorly fitted appliances.
To control unwanted smells, we seal voids, improve seasonal ventilation and specify proper fuel selection and masonry treatment. In windy zones, we incorporate specialized baffled caps. We verify our work with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
