Comprehensive Chimney Cleaning and Creosote Elimination
Protect your property by removing soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. here You'll lower chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and ensure combustion byproducts venting safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, suitable PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Execute flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to dislodge 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 confirm the cap and spark arrestor are clear. Discard debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and consistent draft for safe operation.
Detailed Inspections and Safety Assessments
Before using your fireplace this season, book a Level I-III inspection that follows NFPA 211 to confirm the safety and code compliance of your heating system. A Level I inspection checks basic conditions and clearances, and Level II includes comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. A Level III assessment examines hidden sections when significant hazards are suspected.
Throughout our inspection, we examine liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and proper termination and draft levels. We run ventilation testing to confirm appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our inspection includes damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, connection points, gas log installation safety, and carbon monoxide routes. You'll obtain 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 targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We assess spalling brick, cracked crowns, failed mortar joints, and compromised liners, then execute repairs meeting all codes. You receive precise tuckpointing, crown rebuilding with proper drip edges, and cap installations to ensure proper ventilation and water drainage.
For damaged liners through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, we expertly fit stainless steel or ceramic relining systems specifically dimensioned for the BTU rating and elevation of your unit, maximizing airflow while minimizing creosote buildup. Our team improves smoke chambers using specialized parging techniques to improve draft efficiency. We provide comprehensive masonry work including replacing damaged bricks, stabilizing lintels and stone sealing to prevent dampness and salt intrusion. Every repair is thoroughly documented, includes pressure testing where needed, and is fully warrantied.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Enhance your space with a cleaner, safer, and more efficient hearth with code‑compliant fireplace upgrades, premium-performance inserts, and contemporary improvements. You'll boost performance, reduce emissions, and comply with WA codes. We examine hearth integrity, ventilation capacity, and safety distances, then propose optimized inserts matched to your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. EPA‑approved wood, direct‑vent gas, or pellet systems deliver airtight operation, improved heat transfer, and dependable ventilation control.
Our team replaces worn dampers with premium sealing solutions, install insulated stainless liners where necessary, and confirm hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With smart fireplace controls, you can control ignition, establish temperature limits, implement remote monitoring, and include safety lockouts. We commission every upgrade with thorough testing and paperwork for permits and warranties.
Fixing Draft, Odor, and Smoke Problems
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Draft issues, smoke problems, and unpleasant odors usually trace to negative pressure, blocked flues, or incorrect damper and cap geometry. Our team evaluates stack effect, uses manometers for draft measurement, and confirms cross-sectional dimensions, flue liner integrity, and chimney height.
We address restrictions, remove creosote, and set airflow balancing between the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust. You'll receive optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to stop smoke backdrafts. We repair leaking ash dumps, smoke chamber irregularities, and poorly fitted appliances.
For odor control, we seal voids, improve seasonal ventilation and recommend appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. For areas with high winds, we add baffled caps. We'll validate results using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
