Complete Chimney Cleaning and Creosote Removal
Protect your home by eliminating soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. This will reduce chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and maintain combustion byproducts flowing safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, appropriate PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Conduct flue brushing with correctly fitted poly or steel rods, operating top-to-bottom to dislodge all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Carry out 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. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Conclude with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and consistent draft for reliable operation.
In-Depth Safety Checks and Assessments
Before starting your first fire of the season, arrange a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to confirm the proper condition and compliance of your fireplace and chimney setup. The initial Level I assessment reviews basic conditions and clearances, and Level II includes video scanning of flues and accessible areas. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
During your assessment, we document liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and proper termination and draft levels. We perform ventilation testing to confirm appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our safety checklist covers the condition of the damper, firebox, and more info smoke chamber, gas log safety, appliance connections, and CO pathways. You'll obtain a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
Professional Chimney Services and Masonry Solutions
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we promptly execute 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, then implement code-compliant solutions. You get precise tuckpointing, crown rebuilding with proper drip edges, and cap installations that protect flue ventilation and shed water.
For damaged liners through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, our team implements 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 with careful parging application to improve draft efficiency. Our masonry restoration includes brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and waterproofing stone against moisture and salt infiltration. Every repair is thoroughly documented, undergoes pressure testing as required, and includes warranty coverage.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Upgrade to a cleaner, safer, and more efficient hearth with fireplace improvements that meet code requirements, premium-performance inserts, and intelligent updates. You'll improve operation, reduce emissions, and meet current WA codes. We examine fireplace condition, ventilation capacity, and clearances, then suggest high-performance inserts sized for your home's requirements, energy source, and ventilation system. Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units provide sealed combustion, better heat distribution, and reliable draft control.
Our team replaces worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, incorporate insulated stainless liners where necessary, and confirm hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With smart fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, configure temperature limits, set up remote monitoring, and include safety lockouts. We finalize every upgrade with combustion checks and documentation for permits and warranties.
Addressing Draft, Odor, and Smoke Problems
After upgrading inserts and controls, proper system ventilation remains essential. Inadequate draft, smoke spillage, and unwanted smells usually trace to 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 fix restrictions, remove creosote, and set balanced airflow across the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust components. You'll get tuned combustion air, calibrated dampers, and tight gasketing to prevent back-puffing. We repair leaking ash dumps, smoke chamber irregularities, and poorly fitted appliances.
To control unwanted smells, we implement void sealing and improve air circulation and recommend dry fuel and proper cures for masonry. For areas with high winds, we add baffled caps. We confirm effectiveness with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
