Professional Chimney Cleaning and Creosote Removal
Secure your property by clearing soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. This will lower chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and keep combustion byproducts venting safely outdoors. Initialize with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Execute flue brushing with correctly fitted poly or steel rods, operating top-to-bottom to dislodge all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to control fine particulates. Conduct creosote testing to locate glazed deposits that need mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Remove debris from the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and confirm the cap and spark arrestor are clear. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and stable draft for dependable operation.
Detailed Inspections and Safety Assessments
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, arrange a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to verify the proper condition and compliance of your fireplace and chimney setup. A Level I inspection checks basic conditions and clearances, whereas Level II adds video scanning of flues and accessible areas. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
During your assessment, we examine the integrity of the liner, crown and cap status, and clearances to combustibles and draft performance and termination heights. We run ventilation testing to verify appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our comprehensive review examines damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll get a detailed report with photos and suggested improvements to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
When structural problems, deterioration, or code concerns emerge, we quickly implement specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We evaluate deteriorating masonry, damaged crowns, failing mortar, and defective liners, then execute repairs meeting all codes. We provide precise tuckpointing, crown rebuilding with proper drip edges, and cap installations that maintain proper airflow and water protection.
For damaged liners through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, our team implements stainless steel or ceramic relining systems perfectly sized to match your appliance's BTU output and height, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers through professional parging for enhanced airflow. Our masonry services encompass brick repairs, lintel strengthening and stone sealing to prevent water and salt damage. Every repair is thoroughly documented, includes pressure testing where needed, and comes with a comprehensive warranty.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Transition to a safer, cleaner, and more efficient hearth with fireplace improvements that meet code requirements, energy-efficient inserts, and smart modernization. You'll enhance efficiency, lower environmental impact, and satisfy WA codes. We examine hearth integrity, flue capabilities, and clearances, then propose energy efficient inserts tailored to your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. Direct‑vent gas, EPA‑certified wood, or pellet inserts provide airtight operation, enhanced thermal efficiency, and consistent airflow management.
Our team replaces worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, install insulated stainless liners as needed, and confirm hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With advanced fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, set temperature limits, integrate remote monitoring, and incorporate safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with comprehensive inspections and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Fixing Draft, Smoke, and Odor Concerns
Once inserts and controls have been upgraded, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Draft issues, smoke problems, and unpleasant odors commonly result from negative pressure, blocked flues, or incorrect damper and cap geometry. We diagnose stack effect, measure draft with a manometer, and verify cross-sectional area, liner continuity, and termination height.
We address restrictions, remove creosote, and set airflow balancing between the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust. We provide tuned combustion air, calibrated dampers, and tight gasketing to eliminate smoke spillage. We correct ash dump problems, smoke chamber alignment issues, and improperly fitted hearth units.
To manage odors, we implement void sealing and improve air circulation and require appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. In windy zones, we add baffled caps. We verify our work using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
