Professional Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Elimination
Safeguard your home by eliminating soot and creosote before they become a fire hazard. You will reduce chimney temperatures, improve draft, and keep combustion byproducts venting safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, suitable PPE, and containment to shield interiors. Perform flue brushing with appropriately sized 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 detect glazed deposits that need mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clear the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and confirm the cap and spark arrestor are unobstructed. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Complete 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, book a Level I-III inspection that follows NFPA 211 to confirm the proper condition and compliance of your fireplace and chimney setup. Level I examines standard safety requirements, whereas Level II incorporates video scanning of flues and accessible areas. Level III is necessary for concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
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 verify adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our inspection includes the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, connection points, gas log installation safety, and carbon monoxide routes. You'll receive a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
When structural problems, deterioration, or code concerns emerge, we promptly execute targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration to reestablish structural stability and safe airflow. We examine crumbling brick, crown damage, mortar deterioration, and liner issues, then implement code-compliant solutions. 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, our team implements durable stainless or ceramic relining options perfectly sized to match your appliance's BTU output and height, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers using specialized parging techniques to improve draft efficiency. Our masonry restoration includes brick replacement, lintel reinforcement 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
Transition to a safer, cleaner, and more efficient hearth with code‑compliant fireplace upgrades, energy-efficient inserts, and smart modernization. You'll enhance efficiency, reduce emissions, and satisfy WA codes. We evaluate fireplace condition, flue capabilities, and spacing requirements, then propose energy efficient inserts matched to your home's load, fuel type, and venting path. EPA‑approved wood, direct‑vent gas, or pellet systems deliver controlled burning, better heat distribution, and reliable draft control.
Our team replaces worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, install insulated stainless liners as needed, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With advanced fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, configure temperature limits, integrate remote monitoring, and incorporate safety lockouts. We commission every upgrade with comprehensive inspections and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Addressing Draft, Smoke, and Odor Concerns
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, ensuring proper system airflow is crucial. Draft issues, smoke problems, and unpleasant odors commonly result from negative pressure, blocked flues, or incorrect damper and cap geometry. We diagnose stack effect, measure draft with a manometer, and verify cross-sectional area, flue liner integrity, and chimney height.
We fix restrictions, remove creosote, and set airflow balancing between the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust. You'll receive precisely tuned air flow, balanced dampers, and proper sealing to prevent back-puffing. We address ash dump problems, smoke chamber alignment issues, and improperly fitted hearth units.
To manage odors, we seal voids, improve seasonal ventilation and specify dry fuel and proper cures for masonry. In windy zones, we incorporate specialized baffled caps. We verify our work using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
