Professional Chimney Cleaning and Creosote Removal
Protect your home by clearing soot and creosote before they become a fire hazard. This will decrease chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and keep combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, suitable PPE, and containment to protect interiors. Execute flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Vacuum with a HEPA system to control fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to locate glazed deposits that require mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clear the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and verify the cap and spark arrestor are free of debris. Discard debris safely in metal containers. Conclude with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and reliable draft for safe operation.
In-Depth Safety Checks and Assessments
Before using your fireplace this season, arrange a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to read more verify that your chimney and fireplace meet your chimney and fireplace system. The initial Level I assessment reviews basic conditions and clearances, and Level II adds detailed video examination of accessible spaces and flues. A Level III assessment examines hidden sections when significant hazards are suspected.
During your assessment, we document liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and termination heights, and draft performance. We conduct ventilation testing to confirm appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our comprehensive review examines damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll get a prioritized report, photos, 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 promptly execute 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. We provide professional tuckpointing, crown reconstruction with effective drip edges, and cap fitting that maintain proper airflow and water protection.
If your chimney liner is compromised through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, we expertly fit high-quality stainless or ceramic liner solutions perfectly sized to match your unit's heat output and chimney height, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. We optimize smoke chamber performance through professional parging to achieve smoother flow. Our masonry services encompass brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and waterproofing stone against moisture and salt infiltration. All restoration work is fully documented, pressure-tested when necessary, and comes with a comprehensive warranty.
Modern Fireplace Solutions and Upgrades
Transition to a safer, cleaner, and more efficient hearth with regulation-compliant hearth modifications, premium-performance inserts, and intelligent updates. You'll improve operation, lower environmental impact, and meet current WA codes. We examine hearth integrity, flue capabilities, and safety distances, then suggest energy efficient inserts sized for your home's load, fuel type, and venting path. Direct‑vent gas, EPA‑certified wood, or pellet inserts offer sealed combustion, enhanced thermal efficiency, and consistent airflow management.
We replace worn dampers with high-performance sealing mechanisms, add insulated stainless liners as needed, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With smart fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, establish temperature limits, implement remote monitoring, and incorporate safety lockouts. We finalize every upgrade with combustion checks and documentation for permits and warranties.
Addressing Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Draft issues, smoke problems, and unpleasant odors usually trace to negative pressure, blocked flues, or incorrect damper and cap geometry. We diagnose stack effect, measure draft with a manometer, and verify cross-sectional area, liner continuity, and termination height.
We resolve blockages, clean creosote buildup, and adjust airflow balancing between the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust. You'll receive optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to eliminate smoke spillage. We correct leaking ash dumps, smoke chamber irregularities, and poorly fitted appliances.
To manage odors, we seal voids, improve seasonal ventilation and recommend proper fuel selection and masonry treatment. In windy zones, we add baffled caps. We verify our work with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
