Complete Chimney Cleaning and Creosote Elimination
Secure your home by eliminating soot and creosote before they become a fire hazard. You'll lower chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and keep combustion byproducts venting safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to protect interiors. Perform flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to control fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to detect glazed deposits that demand mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clean the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and verify the cap and spark arrestor are free of debris. Discard debris safely in metal containers. Conclude with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and reliable draft for reliable operation.
Detailed Inspections and Safety Assessments
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, schedule a Level I-III inspection that follows NFPA 211 to verify the safety and code compliance of your heating system. A Level I inspection checks basic conditions and clearances, while Level II incorporates comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
As part of our evaluation, we examine liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and draft performance and termination heights. We conduct ventilation testing to verify appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our comprehensive review examines the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll get a prioritized report, photos, and recommendations to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
Professional Chimney Services and Masonry Solutions
When damage, deterioration, or code issues arise, we swiftly proceed with targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration to restore structural website integrity and safe draft. We assess crumbling brick, crown damage, mortar deterioration, and liner issues, then execute repairs meeting all codes. You get precise tuckpointing, crown rebuilding with proper drip edges, and cap installations that protect flue ventilation and shed water.
When your liner shows signs of damage through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, we professionally install durable stainless or ceramic relining options custom-fitted to the BTU rating and elevation of your unit, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers through professional parging to achieve smoother flow. We provide comprehensive masonry work including brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and protective stone sealing to block dampness and salt intrusion. All restoration work is fully documented, undergoes pressure testing as required, and is fully warrantied.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Transform to a safer, cleaner, and more efficient hearth with regulation-compliant hearth modifications, premium-performance inserts, and smart modernization. You'll boost performance, lower environmental impact, and meet current WA codes. We assess hearth integrity, chimney capacity, and safety distances, then suggest high-performance inserts matched to your home's requirements, energy source, and ventilation system. Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units deliver airtight operation, improved heat transfer, and dependable ventilation control.
We install new worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, add insulated stainless liners when required, and confirm hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With advanced fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, set temperature limits, set up remote monitoring, and include safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with thorough testing and paperwork for permits and warranties.
Resolving Draft, Odor, and Smoke Problems
After upgrading inserts and controls, proper system ventilation remains essential. Poor draft, smoke rollout, and odors typically stem from improper pressure, clogged flues, or misaligned damper and cap configurations. We diagnose stack effect, measure draft with a manometer, and verify cross-sectional area, along with liner condition and proper termination elevation.
We address blockages, clean creosote buildup, and adjust proper air circulation between your firebox, fresh air intake, and exhaust system. You'll get precisely tuned air flow, balanced dampers, and proper sealing to prevent back-puffing. We repair ash dump problems, smoke chamber alignment issues, and improperly fitted hearth units.
To manage odors, we seal voids, improve seasonal ventilation and require dry fuel and proper cures for masonry. In locations with strong winds, we install wind-baffling caps. We confirm effectiveness with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
