Comprehensive Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Removal
Safeguard your home by clearing soot and creosote before they become a fire hazard. This will reduce chimney temperatures, improve draft, and maintain combustion byproducts venting safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to protect interiors. Perform flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Vacuum with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to detect glazed deposits that need mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Remove debris from the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and verify 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 consistent draft for safe operation.
Detailed Inspections and Safety Assessments
Before starting your first fire of the season, book a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to ensure the proper condition and compliance of your chimney and fireplace system. A Level I inspection checks standard safety requirements, whereas Level II incorporates video scanning of flues and accessible areas. Level III is necessary for hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
During your assessment, we document liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and proper termination and draft levels. We perform ventilation testing to confirm appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our comprehensive review examines damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, gas log safety, appliance connections, and CO pathways. You'll obtain a prioritized report, photos, and recommendations to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
Chimney Repairs, Relining, and Masonry Restoration
When damage, deterioration, or code issues arise, we quickly implement targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We evaluate 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.
If your chimney liner is compromised due to cracks, undersizing, or deterioration, we professionally install stainless steel or ceramic relining systems custom-fitted to your unit's heat output and chimney height, optimizing ventilation and decreasing creosote buildup. We optimize smoke chamber performance with careful parging application for enhanced airflow. We provide comprehensive masonry work including replacing damaged bricks, stabilizing lintels and waterproofing stone against moisture and salt infiltration. We maintain detailed records of all repairs, includes pressure testing where needed, and includes warranty coverage.
Modern Fireplace Solutions and Upgrades
Transform to a safer, cleaner, and more efficient hearth with fireplace improvements that meet code requirements, high‑efficiency inserts, and intelligent updates. You'll boost performance, decrease pollutants, and satisfy WA codes. We examine fireplace condition, flue capabilities, and spacing requirements, then recommend optimized inserts tailored to your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units offer controlled burning, better heat distribution, and consistent airflow management.
We install new worn dampers with high-performance sealing mechanisms, install insulated stainless liners as needed, and verify hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With smart fireplace controls, you can automate ignition, configure temperature limits, integrate remote monitoring, and add safety lockouts. We commission every upgrade with combustion checks and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Addressing Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
After upgrading inserts and controls, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Poor draft, smoke rollout, and odors typically stem from improper pressure, clogged flues, or misaligned damper and cap configurations. We assess stack effect, check draft levels using manometers, and examine cross-sectional measurements, along with liner condition and proper termination elevation.
We resolve obstructions, clear creosote deposits, and optimize proper air circulation between your firebox, fresh air intake, and exhaust system. You'll receive optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to prevent back-puffing. We address ash dump leaks, smoke chamber offsets, and misfit hearth appliances.
To control unwanted smells, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and specify appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. In windy zones, we add baffled caps. We'll validate results with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
