Comprehensive Chimney Maintenance and Creosote Cleaning
Protect your home by eliminating soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. You'll decrease chimney temperatures, improve draft, and ensure combustion byproducts venting safely outdoors. Initialize with a cool system, appropriate PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Perform flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Vacuum with a HEPA system to manage fine particulates. Conduct creosote testing to locate glazed deposits that need mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clean the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and confirm the cap and spark arrestor are clear. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and consistent draft for safe operation.
Thorough Safety Inspections and Evaluations
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, schedule 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, and Level II includes video scanning of flues and accessible areas. A Level III assessment examines hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
As part of our evaluation, we examine liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and termination heights, and draft performance. We run ventilation testing to ensure 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 obtain a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to enhance system performance and address safety concerns.
Chimney Repairs, Relining, and Masonry Restoration
When damage, deterioration, or code issues arise, we swiftly proceed with targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration to restore structural integrity and safe draft. We evaluate crumbling brick, crown damage, mortar deterioration, and liner issues, then implement code-compliant solutions. You receive 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 stainless steel or ceramic relining systems perfectly sized to match the BTU rating and elevation of your unit, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. Our team improves smoke chambers using specialized parging techniques to improve draft efficiency. Our masonry restoration includes brick repairs, lintel strengthening and stone sealing to prevent water and salt damage. All restoration work is fully documented, undergoes pressure testing as required, and is fully warrantied.
Fireplace Upgrades, Inserts, and Modernization
Transition to a cleaner, safer, and more efficient hearth with fireplace improvements that meet code requirements, premium-performance inserts, and intelligent updates. You'll improve operation, decrease pollutants, and comply with WA codes. We assess fireplace condition, ventilation capacity, and safety distances, then suggest high-performance here inserts tailored to your home's requirements, energy source, and ventilation system. Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units deliver sealed combustion, enhanced thermal efficiency, and consistent airflow management.
We replace worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, incorporate insulated stainless liners when required, and verify hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With advanced fireplace controls, you can automate ignition, establish temperature limits, integrate remote monitoring, and include safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with comprehensive inspections and paperwork for permits and warranties.
Fixing Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, proper system ventilation remains essential. Poor draft, smoke rollout, and odors typically stem from pressure issues, flue blockages, or poor damper and cap setup. 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 proper air circulation between your firebox, fresh air intake, and exhaust system. You'll receive optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to stop smoke backdrafts. We address leaking ash dumps, smoke chamber irregularities, and poorly fitted appliances.
For odor control, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and specify proper fuel selection and masonry treatment. In locations with strong winds, we install wind-baffling caps. We verify our work with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
