Comprehensive Chimney Cleaning and Creosote Cleaning
Safeguard your property by clearing soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. You'll lower chimney temperatures, improve draft, and keep combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, appropriate PPE, and containment to protect interiors. Conduct flue brushing with correctly fitted poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to control 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 verify the cap and spark arrestor are free of debris. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Conclude with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and reliable draft for reliable operation.
Thorough Safety Inspections and Evaluations
Before starting your first fire of the season, arrange a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to confirm the safety and code compliance of your chimney and fireplace system. The initial Level I assessment reviews standard safety requirements, while Level II includes detailed video examination of accessible spaces and flues. A Level III assessment examines concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
Throughout our inspection, we record liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and proper termination and draft levels. We perform ventilation testing to ensure proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our inspection includes damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll obtain a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to enhance system performance and address safety concerns.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we swiftly proceed with focused chimney rehabilitation, relining, and masonry fixes that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We assess deteriorating masonry, damaged crowns, failing mortar, and defective liners, before applying code-approved repairs. You get expert tuckpointing, crown restoration with appropriate drip edges, and cap placement 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 custom-fitted to the BTU rating and elevation of your unit, maximizing airflow while minimizing creosote buildup. Our team improves smoke chambers through professional parging to achieve smoother flow. Our masonry services encompass replacing damaged bricks, stabilizing lintels and waterproofing stone against moisture and salt infiltration. All restoration work is fully documented, includes pressure testing where needed, and is fully warrantied.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Transform to a cleaner, safer, and more efficient hearth with regulation-compliant hearth modifications, high‑efficiency inserts, and smart modernization. You'll boost performance, decrease pollutants, and meet current WA codes. We assess fireplace condition, flue capabilities, and safety distances, then suggest optimized inserts sized for your home's requirements, energy source, and ventilation system. Direct‑vent gas, EPA‑certified wood, or pellet inserts deliver sealed combustion, better heat distribution, and reliable draft control.
Our team replaces worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, install insulated stainless liners where necessary, and confirm hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With advanced fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, configure temperature limits, implement 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
After upgrading inserts and controls, proper system ventilation remains essential. Poor draft, smoke rollout, and odors commonly result from negative pressure, blocked flues, or incorrect damper and cap geometry. Our team evaluates stack effect, uses manometers for draft measurement, and confirms cross-sectional dimensions, liner continuity, and termination height.
We fix blockages, clean creosote buildup, and adjust proper air circulation between your firebox, fresh air intake, and exhaust system. We provide optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to prevent back-puffing. We repair leaking ash dumps, smoke chamber irregularities, and poorly fitted appliances.
To control unwanted smells, we seal voids, improve seasonal ventilation and recommend appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. In locations with strong winds, we install wind-baffling caps. We confirm effectiveness using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
