Professional Chimney Maintenance and Creosote Elimination
Safeguard your home by eliminating soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. You will lower chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and ensure combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Initialize with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to protect interiors. Execute flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to dislodge all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to control fine particulates. Conduct creosote testing to identify glazed deposits that require mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clear the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and confirm the cap and spark arrestor are free of debris. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and reliable draft for reliable operation.
Thorough Safety Inspections and Evaluations
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, schedule a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to verify the proper condition and compliance of your chimney and fireplace system. Level I examines clearances and general condition, while Level II incorporates video scanning of flues and accessible areas. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
Throughout our inspection, we document 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 adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our safety checklist covers the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, gas log safety, appliance connections, and CO pathways. You'll obtain a detailed report with photos and suggested improvements to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Chimney Repairs, Relining, and Masonry Restoration
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we swiftly proceed with focused chimney rehabilitation, relining, and masonry fixes that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We evaluate crumbling brick, crown damage, mortar deterioration, and liner issues, then execute repairs meeting all codes. We provide 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 from breaks, improper dimensions, or rust, our team implements stainless steel or ceramic relining systems perfectly sized to match your unit's heat output and chimney height, maximizing airflow while minimizing creosote buildup. Our team improves smoke chambers through professional parging for enhanced airflow. We provide comprehensive masonry work including brick repairs, lintel strengthening and waterproofing stone against moisture and salt infiltration. We maintain detailed records of all repairs, undergoes pressure testing as required, and comes with a comprehensive warranty.
Fireplace Upgrades, Inserts, and Modernization
Enhance your space with a cleaner, safer, and more efficient hearth with regulation-compliant hearth modifications, energy-efficient inserts, and smart modernization. You'll improve operation, reduce emissions, and satisfy WA codes. We examine hearth integrity, ventilation capacity, and clearances, then propose optimized inserts sized for your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. Direct‑vent gas, EPA‑certified wood, or pellet inserts provide sealed combustion, better heat distribution, and consistent airflow management.
We install new worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, install insulated stainless liners as needed, and confirm hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With smart fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, configure temperature limits, integrate remote monitoring, and include safety lockouts. We commission every upgrade with thorough testing and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Resolving Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
After upgrading inserts and controls, ensuring proper system airflow is crucial. Draft issues, smoke problems, and unpleasant odors typically stem from improper pressure, clogged flues, or misaligned damper and cap configurations. Our team evaluates stack effect, uses manometers for draft measurement, and confirms cross-sectional dimensions, liner continuity, and termination height.
We fix restrictions, remove creosote, and set balanced airflow across the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust components. You'll receive optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to stop smoke backdrafts. We repair ash dump problems, smoke chamber alignment issues, and improperly fitted hearth units.
For odor control, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and recommend appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. In locations with strong winds, we install wind-baffling caps. We confirm effectiveness with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
