Comprehensive Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Elimination
Safeguard your residence by removing soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. This will reduce chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and maintain combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Initialize with a cool system, appropriate PPE, and containment to shield interiors. Perform flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to dislodge all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Carry out creosote testing to locate glazed deposits that need 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. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and stable draft for safe operation.
Detailed Inspections and Safety Assessments
Before starting your first fire of the season, arrange a Level I-III inspection that follows NFPA 211 to confirm the safety and code compliance of your chimney and fireplace system. The initial Level I assessment reviews basic conditions and clearances, whereas Level II incorporates video scanning of flues and accessible areas. A Level III assessment examines 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 confirm proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our inspection includes firebox and damper functionality, smoke chamber status, gas log safety, appliance connections, and CO pathways. You'll receive a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Professional Chimney Services and Masonry Solutions
When structural problems, deterioration, or code concerns emerge, we swiftly proceed with targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We examine 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 to ensure proper ventilation and water drainage.
For damaged liners due to cracks, undersizing, or deterioration, we expertly fit stainless steel or ceramic relining systems specifically dimensioned for your appliance's BTU output and height, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. Our team improves smoke chambers through professional parging for enhanced airflow. Our masonry restoration includes replacing damaged bricks, stabilizing lintels and protective stone sealing to block dampness and salt intrusion. Every repair is thoroughly documented, undergoes pressure testing as required, and includes warranty coverage.
Fireplace Upgrades, Inserts, and Modernization
Transition to a more efficient, safer, and cleaner hearth with regulation-compliant hearth modifications, energy-efficient inserts, and smart modernization. You'll improve operation, decrease pollutants, and meet current WA codes. We assess firebox condition, flue capabilities, and spacing requirements, then suggest optimized inserts matched to your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. EPA‑approved wood, direct‑vent gas, or pellet systems deliver controlled burning, improved heat transfer, and dependable ventilation control.
We replace worn dampers with high-performance sealing mechanisms, install insulated stainless liners as needed, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With intelligent fireplace controls, you can automate 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.
Addressing Draft, Smoke, and Odor Concerns
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Inadequate draft, smoke spillage, and unwanted smells usually trace to pressure issues, flue blockages, or poor damper and cap setup. Our team evaluates stack effect, uses manometers for draft measurement, and confirms cross-sectional dimensions, flue liner integrity, and chimney height.
We resolve obstructions, clear creosote deposits, and optimize airflow balancing between the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust. We provide precisely tuned air flow, balanced dampers, and proper sealing to here prevent back-puffing. We correct leaking ash dumps, smoke chamber irregularities, and poorly fitted appliances.
For odor control, we seal voids, improve seasonal ventilation and require proper fuel selection and masonry treatment. In locations with strong winds, we install wind-baffling caps. We verify our work using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
