Comprehensive Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Removal
Protect your home by clearing soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. You'll lower chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and keep combustion byproducts flowing safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, appropriate PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Perform flue brushing with correctly fitted poly or steel rods, operating top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Vacuum with a HEPA system to manage fine particulates. Conduct creosote testing to identify glazed deposits that demand mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Remove debris from the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and ensure the cap and spark arrestor are unobstructed. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to verify effective removal and consistent draft for safe operation.
Detailed Inspections and Safety Assessments
Before using your fireplace this season, arrange a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to verify the proper condition and compliance of your chimney and fireplace system. The initial Level I assessment reviews basic conditions and clearances, while Level II includes detailed video examination of accessible spaces and flues. Level III is necessary for hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
As part of our evaluation, we record liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and termination heights, and draft performance. We run ventilation testing to verify appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our safety checklist covers firebox and damper functionality, smoke chamber status, gas log safety, appliance connections, and CO pathways. You'll get a detailed report with photos and suggested improvements to enhance system performance and address safety concerns.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
When structural problems, deterioration, or code concerns emerge, we promptly execute specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work to restore structural integrity and safe draft. We evaluate spalling brick, cracked crowns, failed mortar joints, and compromised liners, then implement code-compliant solutions. You get 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 professionally install durable stainless or ceramic relining options perfectly sized to match your appliance's BTU output and height, optimizing ventilation and decreasing creosote buildup. We optimize smoke chamber performance using specialized parging techniques 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
Enhance your space with a safer, cleaner, and more efficient hearth with regulation-compliant hearth modifications, premium-performance inserts, and intelligent updates. You'll improve operation, reduce emissions, and meet current WA codes. We assess fireplace condition, flue capabilities, and clearances, then recommend energy efficient inserts sized for your home's requirements, energy source, and ventilation system. Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units provide sealed combustion, enhanced thermal efficiency, and dependable ventilation control.
Our team replaces worn dampers with high-performance sealing mechanisms, add insulated stainless liners where necessary, and verify hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With intelligent fireplace controls, you can control ignition, configure temperature limits, integrate remote monitoring, and incorporate safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with thorough testing and paperwork for permits and warranties.
Fixing Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
After upgrading inserts and controls, proper system ventilation remains essential. Inadequate draft, smoke spillage, and unwanted smells typically stem from pressure issues, flue blockages, or poor damper and cap setup. We assess stack effect, check draft levels using manometers, and examine cross-sectional measurements, along with liner condition and proper termination elevation.
We address obstructions, clear creosote deposits, and optimize balanced airflow across the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust components. You'll receive tuned combustion air, calibrated dampers, and tight gasketing to stop smoke backdrafts. We correct ash dump problems, smoke chamber alignment issues, and improperly fitted hearth units.
For odor control, we implement void sealing and improve air circulation and specify appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. In windy zones, we add baffled caps. We verify our work using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
