Professional Chimney Maintenance and Creosote Cleaning
Secure your home by eliminating soot and creosote before they become a fire hazard. This will reduce chimney temperatures, improve draft, and maintain combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Initialize with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Perform flue brushing with correctly fitted poly or steel rods, operating top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Vacuum with a HEPA system to control fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to identify glazed deposits that require mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Remove debris from 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 validate effective removal and stable draft for reliable operation.
Detailed Inspections and Safety Assessments
Before using your fireplace this season, book a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to verify the safety and code compliance of your chimney and fireplace system. The initial Level I assessment reviews basic conditions and clearances, whereas Level II includes detailed video examination of accessible spaces and flues. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates hidden sections when significant hazards are suspected.
Throughout our inspection, we examine the integrity of the liner, crown and cap status, and clearances to combustibles and proper termination and draft levels. We run ventilation testing to confirm appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our safety checklist covers damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, connection points, gas log installation safety, and carbon monoxide routes. You'll receive a prioritized report, photos, and recommendations to enhance system performance and address safety concerns.
Chimney Repairs, Relining, and Masonry Restoration
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we quickly implement specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work to reestablish structural stability and safe airflow. We evaluate spalling brick, cracked crowns, failed mortar joints, and compromised liners, then execute repairs meeting all codes. You get professional tuckpointing, crown reconstruction with effective drip edges, and cap fitting that protect flue ventilation and shed water.
When your liner shows signs of damage through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, we expertly fit high-quality stainless or ceramic liner solutions custom-fitted to your unit's heat output and chimney height, optimizing ventilation and decreasing creosote buildup. Our team improves smoke chambers through professional parging for enhanced airflow. Our masonry restoration includes brick repairs, lintel strengthening and protective stone sealing to block water and salt damage. Every repair is thoroughly documented, pressure-tested when necessary, and is fully warrantied.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Enhance your space with a more efficient, safer, and cleaner hearth with code‑compliant fireplace upgrades, premium-performance inserts, and smart modernization. You'll enhance efficiency, decrease pollutants, and comply with WA codes. We assess hearth integrity, flue capabilities, and spacing requirements, then recommend energy efficient inserts sized for your home's requirements, energy source, and ventilation system. Direct‑vent gas, EPA‑certified wood, or pellet inserts offer airtight operation, enhanced thermal efficiency, and dependable ventilation control.
We replace worn dampers with premium sealing solutions, install insulated stainless liners when required, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With intelligent fireplace controls, you can control ignition, configure temperature limits, implement remote monitoring, and include safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with combustion checks and paperwork for permits and warranties.
Solving Smoke, Draft, and Odor Issues
After upgrading inserts and controls, proper system ventilation remains essential. Draft issues, smoke problems, and unpleasant odors commonly result from improper pressure, clogged flues, or misaligned damper and cap configurations. We diagnose stack effect, measure draft with a manometer, and verify cross-sectional area, 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 leaking ash dumps, smoke chamber irregularities, and poorly fitted appliances.
To control unwanted smells, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and specify proper fuel selection and masonry treatment. For areas with high winds, we add baffled caps. We confirm effectiveness using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
