Professional Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Removal
Safeguard your property by eliminating soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. This will lower chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and ensure combustion byproducts flowing safely outdoors. Initialize with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to shield interiors. Perform flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to dislodge all stages of buildup. Vacuum with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Carry out creosote testing to identify glazed deposits that need mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clear the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and confirm the cap and spark arrestor are clear. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Conclude with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and reliable draft for dependable operation.
Thorough Safety Inspections and Evaluations
Before starting your first fire of the season, arrange a Level I-III inspection that follows NFPA 211 to confirm the proper condition and compliance of your chimney and fireplace system. Level I examines basic conditions and clearances, whereas Level II adds detailed video examination of accessible spaces and flues. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
During your assessment, we record the condition of the liner, combustible clearances, and crown and cap and termination heights, and draft performance. We run ventilation testing to verify appropriate air supply and exhaust function. 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.
Chimney Repairs, Relining, and Masonry Restoration
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we quickly implement specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We assess deteriorating masonry, damaged crowns, failing mortar, and defective liners, then execute repairs meeting all codes. We provide expert tuckpointing, crown restoration with appropriate drip edges, and cap placement to ensure proper ventilation and water drainage.
For damaged liners due to cracks, undersizing, or deterioration, we expertly fit durable stainless or ceramic relining options specifically dimensioned for your unit's heat output and chimney height, optimizing ventilation and decreasing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers through professional parging to improve draft efficiency. Our masonry services encompass brick repairs, lintel strengthening and stone sealing to prevent dampness and salt intrusion. All restoration work is fully documented, undergoes pressure testing as required, and comes with a comprehensive warranty.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Transition to a more efficient, safer, and cleaner hearth with fireplace improvements that meet code requirements, energy-efficient inserts, and contemporary improvements. You'll boost performance, lower environmental impact, and comply with WA codes. We examine fireplace condition, flue capabilities, and spacing requirements, then suggest energy efficient inserts tailored to your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. EPA‑approved wood, direct‑vent gas, or pellet systems deliver airtight operation, better heat distribution, and consistent airflow management.
We install new worn dampers with premium sealing solutions, install insulated stainless liners where necessary, and confirm hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With advanced fireplace controls, you can control ignition, set temperature limits, set up remote monitoring, and incorporate safety lockouts. We commission every upgrade with combustion checks and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Solving Draft, Smoke, and Odor Concerns
After upgrading inserts and controls, ensuring proper system airflow is crucial. Inadequate draft, smoke spillage, and unwanted smells usually trace to improper pressure, clogged flues, or misaligned damper and cap configurations. We assess stack effect, check draft levels using manometers, and examine cross-sectional measurements, liner continuity, and termination height.
We fix obstructions, clear creosote deposits, and optimize balanced airflow across the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust components. You'll get precisely tuned air flow, balanced dampers, and proper sealing to prevent back-puffing. We address ash dump problems, smoke chamber alignment issues, and improperly fitted hearth units.
To control unwanted smells, we implement void sealing and improve air circulation and specify proper fuel selection and masonry treatment. In windy zones, we incorporate specialized baffled caps. We verify our work using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
