Comprehensive Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Elimination

You will decrease chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and maintain combustion byproducts venting safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, appropriate PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Perform flue brushing with correctly fitted 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 locate glazed deposits that need mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clear the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and ensure the cap and spark arrestor are unobstructed. read more Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and reliable draft for reliable operation.
Comprehensive Safety Evaluations and Inspections
Before starting your first fire of the season, book a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to ensure that your chimney and fireplace meet your fireplace and chimney setup. Level I examines basic conditions and clearances, and Level II incorporates detailed video examination of accessible spaces and flues. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
As part of our evaluation, we examine the condition of the liner, combustible clearances, and crown and cap and draft performance and termination heights. We conduct ventilation testing to confirm adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our safety checklist covers firebox and damper functionality, smoke chamber status, 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.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we promptly execute specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We assess spalling brick, cracked crowns, failed mortar joints, and compromised liners, then implement code-compliant solutions. We provide precise tuckpointing, crown rebuilding with proper drip edges, and cap installations to ensure proper ventilation and water drainage.
If your chimney liner is compromised due to cracks, undersizing, or deterioration, our team implements stainless steel or ceramic relining systems specifically dimensioned for your appliance's BTU output and height, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. Our team improves smoke chambers with careful parging application to achieve smoother flow. We provide comprehensive masonry work including brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and stone sealing to prevent water and salt damage.

Modern Fireplace Solutions and Upgrades
Transition to a more efficient, safer, and cleaner hearth with regulation-compliant hearth modifications, energy-efficient inserts, and intelligent updates. You'll improve operation, reduce emissions, and satisfy WA codes. We examine hearth integrity, ventilation capacity, and safety distances, then recommend optimized inserts tailored to your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units provide controlled burning, better heat distribution, and reliable draft control.
We install new worn dampers with premium sealing solutions, incorporate insulated stainless liners when required, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With advanced fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, establish temperature limits, set up remote monitoring, and incorporate safety lockouts. We finalize every upgrade with combustion checks and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Fixing Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Draft issues, smoke problems, and unpleasant odors typically stem from improper pressure, clogged flues, or misaligned damper and cap configurations. 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 get tuned combustion air, calibrated dampers, and tight gasketing to prevent back-puffing. We address ash dump leaks, smoke chamber offsets, and misfit hearth appliances.
To control unwanted smells, we seal voids, improve seasonal ventilation and require proper fuel selection and masonry treatment. In locations with strong winds, we install wind-baffling caps. We'll validate results through smoke testing and CO level verification for complete safety.
