Comprehensive Chimney Maintenance and Creosote Removal
Safeguard your property by eliminating soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. You will lower chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and maintain combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Initialize with a cool system, appropriate PPE, and containment to shield interiors. Perform flue brushing with correctly fitted poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to control fine particulates. Carry out creosote testing to locate glazed deposits that require mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clear the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and verify the cap and spark arrestor are free of debris. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and stable draft for safe operation.
Thorough Safety Inspections and Evaluations
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, arrange a Level I-III inspection that follows NFPA 211 to verify the proper condition and compliance of your fireplace and chimney setup. Level I examines basic conditions and clearances, and Level II includes video scanning of flues and accessible areas. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates hidden sections when significant hazards are suspected.
During your assessment, we record liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and proper termination and draft levels. We conduct ventilation testing to confirm proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our safety checklist covers damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, gas log safety, appliance connections, and CO pathways. You'll obtain a prioritized report, photos, and recommendations to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
When structural problems, deterioration, or code concerns emerge, we swiftly proceed with specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We evaluate spalling brick, cracked crowns, failed mortar joints, and compromised liners, before applying code-approved repairs. You receive expert tuckpointing, crown restoration with appropriate drip edges, and cap placement that protect flue ventilation and shed water.
If your chimney liner is compromised through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, our team implements durable stainless or ceramic relining options custom-fitted to your unit's heat output and chimney height, optimizing ventilation and decreasing creosote buildup. We optimize smoke chamber performance through professional parging to improve draft efficiency. Our masonry services encompass replacing damaged bricks, stabilizing lintels and protective stone sealing to block water and salt damage. We maintain detailed records of all repairs, pressure-tested when necessary, and comes with a comprehensive warranty.
Fireplace Upgrades, Inserts, and Modernization
Upgrade to a more efficient, safer, and cleaner hearth with fireplace improvements that meet code requirements, premium-performance inserts, and smart modernization. You'll enhance efficiency, reduce emissions, and meet current WA codes. We evaluate firebox condition, ventilation capacity, and safety distances, then recommend energy efficient inserts tailored to your home's requirements, energy source, and ventilation system. Direct‑vent gas, EPA‑certified wood, or pellet inserts provide airtight operation, enhanced thermal efficiency, and reliable draft control.
We replace worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, install insulated stainless liners when required, and verify 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 add safety lockouts. We finalize every upgrade with combustion checks and documentation for permits and warranties.
Addressing Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
Once inserts and controls have been upgraded, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Poor draft, smoke rollout, and odors typically stem from 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 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 prevent back-puffing. We repair leaking ash dumps, smoke chamber irregularities, and poorly fitted appliances.
To manage odors, we implement void sealing and improve air circulation and recommend appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. In locations with strong winds, we install wind-baffling caps. We confirm effectiveness with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
