Complete Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Removal
Secure your property by removing soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. You'll reduce chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and keep combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, suitable PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Perform flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, operating top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Conduct creosote testing to identify 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. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Conclude with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and reliable draft for safe operation.
Thorough Safety Inspections and Evaluations
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, schedule a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to confirm the safety and code compliance of your chimney and fireplace system. Level I examines basic conditions and clearances, whereas Level II includes comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. Level III is necessary for hidden sections when significant hazards are suspected.
As part of our evaluation, we document the integrity of the liner, crown and cap status, and clearances to combustibles and proper termination and draft levels. We perform ventilation testing to ensure adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our safety checklist covers firebox and damper functionality, smoke chamber status, 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 focused chimney rehabilitation, relining, and masonry fixes that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We examine spalling brick, cracked crowns, failed mortar joints, and compromised liners, before applying code-approved repairs. We provide expert tuckpointing, crown restoration with appropriate drip edges, and cap placement that maintain proper airflow and water protection.
When your liner shows signs of damage from breaks, improper dimensions, or rust, we expertly fit stainless steel or ceramic relining systems specifically dimensioned for your appliance's BTU output and height, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers with careful parging application to achieve smoother flow. Our masonry services encompass replacing damaged bricks, stabilizing lintels and waterproofing stone against dampness and salt intrusion. We maintain detailed records of all repairs, pressure-tested when necessary, and includes warranty coverage.
Modern Fireplace Solutions and Upgrades
Transform to a more efficient, safer, and cleaner hearth with fireplace improvements that meet code requirements, energy-efficient inserts, and contemporary improvements. You'll boost performance, reduce emissions, and comply with WA codes. We examine fireplace condition, flue capabilities, and clearances, then recommend energy efficient inserts sized for your home's load, fuel type, and venting path. Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units provide airtight operation, enhanced thermal efficiency, and dependable ventilation control.
Our team replaces worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, add insulated stainless liners as needed, and verify hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With advanced fireplace controls, you can control ignition, configure temperature limits, integrate remote monitoring, and add safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with combustion checks and documentation for permits and warranties.
Addressing Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
After upgrading inserts and controls, proper system ventilation remains essential. Inadequate draft, smoke spillage, and unwanted smells usually trace to 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 resolve restrictions, remove creosote, and set 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 address ash dump leaks, smoke chamber offsets, and misfit hearth appliances.
To manage odors, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and recommend appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. In windy zones, we add baffled caps. We confirm effectiveness using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
