Comprehensive Chimney Maintenance and Creosote Removal
Secure your property by clearing soot and creosote before they become a fire hazard. You'll lower chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and ensure combustion byproducts flowing safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Execute flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, operating top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to control fine particulates. Carry out creosote testing to locate glazed deposits that require mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clean the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and ensure the cap and spark arrestor are unobstructed. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to verify effective removal and consistent draft for reliable operation.
Thorough Safety Inspections and Evaluations
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, book a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to confirm that your chimney and fireplace meet your fireplace and chimney setup. Level I examines standard safety requirements, while Level II includes detailed video examination of accessible spaces and flues. Level III is necessary for hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
Throughout our inspection, we record liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and draft performance and termination heights. We perform ventilation testing to verify adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our inspection includes damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll receive a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Chimney Repairs, Relining, and Masonry Restoration
When damage, deterioration, or code issues arise, we swiftly proceed with specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work to reestablish structural stability and safe airflow. We evaluate deteriorating masonry, damaged crowns, failing mortar, and defective liners, before applying code-approved repairs. We provide expert tuckpointing, crown restoration with appropriate drip edges, and cap placement to ensure proper ventilation and water drainage.
For damaged liners through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, our team implements high-quality stainless or ceramic liner solutions custom-fitted to the BTU rating and elevation of your unit, maximizing airflow while minimizing creosote buildup. We optimize smoke chamber performance with careful parging application for enhanced airflow. We provide comprehensive masonry work including brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and protective stone sealing to block water and salt damage. 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 code‑compliant fireplace upgrades, premium-performance inserts, and intelligent updates. You'll boost performance, decrease pollutants, and meet current WA codes. We assess firebox condition, ventilation capacity, and safety distances, then recommend optimized inserts sized for your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. EPA‑approved wood, direct‑vent gas, or pellet systems deliver airtight operation, better heat distribution, and dependable ventilation control.
We replace worn dampers with high-performance sealing mechanisms, install insulated stainless liners when required, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With intelligent fireplace controls, you can control ignition, set temperature limits, set up remote monitoring, and add safety lockouts. We finalize every upgrade with thorough testing and documentation for permits and warranties.
Solving Smoke, Draft, and Odor Issues
Once inserts and controls have been upgraded, proper system ventilation remains essential. Draft issues, smoke problems, and unpleasant odors typically stem from negative pressure, blocked flues, or incorrect damper and cap geometry. We assess stack effect, check draft levels using manometers, and examine cross-sectional measurements, along with liner condition and proper termination elevation.
We resolve blockages, clean creosote buildup, and adjust airflow balancing between the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust. You'll receive optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to eliminate smoke spillage. We address leaking ash dumps, smoke chamber irregularities, and poorly fitted appliances.
To control unwanted smells, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and require appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. In locations with strong winds, we install wind-baffling caps. We verify our work using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
