Comprehensive Chimney Cleaning and Creosote Cleaning
Safeguard your home by eliminating soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. You will reduce chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and keep combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Initialize with a cool system, suitable PPE, and containment to protect interiors. Perform flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, operating top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Vacuum with a HEPA system to manage fine particulates. Carry out creosote testing to locate 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. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to verify effective removal and reliable draft for safe operation.
In-Depth Safety Checks and Assessments
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 heating system. A Level I inspection checks basic conditions and clearances, while 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 document the integrity of the liner, crown and cap status, and clearances to combustibles and termination heights, and draft performance. We run ventilation testing to verify proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our inspection includes damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll get a detailed report with photos and suggested improvements to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
When damage, deterioration, or code issues arise, we swiftly proceed with focused chimney rehabilitation, relining, and masonry fixes to reestablish structural stability and safe airflow. We examine crumbling brick, crown damage, mortar deterioration, and liner issues, then implement code-compliant solutions. You get 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 high-quality stainless or ceramic liner solutions specifically dimensioned for the BTU rating and elevation of your unit, maximizing airflow while minimizing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers through professional parging to improve draft efficiency. 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, pressure-tested when necessary, and includes warranty coverage.
Fireplace Upgrades, Inserts, and Modernization
Enhance your space with a cleaner, safer, and more efficient hearth with regulation-compliant hearth modifications, premium-performance inserts, and smart modernization. You'll improve operation, lower environmental impact, and satisfy WA codes. We examine firebox condition, chimney capacity, and safety distances, then propose energy efficient inserts matched to your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. EPA‑approved wood, direct‑vent gas, or pellet systems offer airtight operation, enhanced thermal efficiency, and reliable draft control.
We replace worn dampers with high-performance sealing mechanisms, install insulated stainless liners as needed, and verify hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With advanced fireplace controls, you can control ignition, establish temperature limits, implement remote monitoring, and add safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with comprehensive inspections and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Addressing Smoke, Draft, and Odor Issues
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Inadequate draft, smoke spillage, and unwanted smells commonly result 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, along with liner condition and proper termination elevation.
We resolve restrictions, remove creosote, and set balanced airflow across the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust components. We provide precisely tuned air flow, balanced dampers, and proper sealing to eliminate smoke spillage. We correct ash dump leaks, smoke chamber offsets, and misfit hearth appliances.
To control unwanted smells, we seal voids, improve seasonal ventilation and recommend dry fuel and proper cures for masonry. In windy zones, we install wind-baffling caps. We verify our work through smoke testing and CO level verification for complete safety.
