Professional Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Cleaning
Safeguard your property by clearing soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. This will lower chimney temperatures, improve draft, and maintain combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Start 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 dislodge all stages of buildup. Vacuum with a HEPA system to manage fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to detect glazed deposits that demand mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Remove debris from the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and ensure the cap and spark arrestor are clear. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and consistent draft for safe operation.
Comprehensive Safety Evaluations and Inspections
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, book a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to confirm the proper condition and compliance of your heating system. The initial Level I assessment reviews standard safety requirements, and Level II adds 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 record the integrity of the liner, crown and cap status, and clearances to combustibles and termination heights, and draft performance. We run ventilation testing to confirm proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our comprehensive review examines the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, gas log safety, appliance connections, and CO pathways. You'll receive a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Professional Chimney Services and Masonry Solutions
When structural problems, deterioration, or code concerns emerge, 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, before applying code-approved repairs. You get professional tuckpointing, crown reconstruction with effective drip edges, and cap fitting to ensure proper ventilation and water drainage.
When your liner shows signs of damage from breaks, improper dimensions, or rust, we expertly fit durable stainless or ceramic relining options perfectly sized to match your appliance's BTU output and height, optimizing ventilation and decreasing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers using specialized parging techniques for enhanced airflow. Our masonry services encompass brick repairs, lintel strengthening and stone sealing to prevent water and salt damage. Every repair is thoroughly documented, undergoes pressure testing as required, and includes warranty coverage.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Transform to a more efficient, safer, and cleaner hearth with code‑compliant fireplace upgrades, energy-efficient inserts, and contemporary improvements. You'll boost performance, reduce emissions, and satisfy WA codes. We examine fireplace condition, chimney capacity, and safety distances, then recommend 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, enhanced thermal efficiency, and consistent airflow management.
Our team replaces worn dampers with premium sealing solutions, install insulated stainless liners as needed, and confirm hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With intelligent fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, configure temperature limits, set up remote monitoring, and add safety lockouts. We finalize every upgrade with combustion checks and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Resolving Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
Once inserts and controls have been upgraded, ensuring proper system airflow is crucial. 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 resolve obstructions, clear creosote deposits, and optimize airflow balancing between the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust. We provide optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to eliminate smoke spillage. We repair ash dump leaks, smoke chamber offsets, and misfit hearth appliances.
To control unwanted smells, we seal voids, improve seasonal ventilation and recommend appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. For areas with high winds, we install wind-baffling caps. We verify our work through smoke testing and CO level verification for complete safety.
