Professional Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Removal
Safeguard your home by clearing soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. You'll lower chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and ensure combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, appropriate PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Perform flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, operating top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to manage fine particulates. Conduct creosote testing to detect glazed deposits that need mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clean the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and ensure the cap and spark arrestor are free of debris. Discard debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to verify effective removal and reliable draft for dependable operation.
Comprehensive Safety Evaluations and Inspections
Before starting your first fire of the season, arrange a Level I-III inspection that follows NFPA 211 to confirm the proper condition and compliance of your chimney and fireplace system. Level I examines standard safety requirements, whereas Level II incorporates comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. A Level III assessment examines concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
During your assessment, we examine the condition of the liner, combustible clearances, and crown and cap and proper termination and draft levels. We perform ventilation testing to confirm adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our comprehensive review examines the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, connection points, gas log installation safety, and carbon monoxide routes. You'll obtain a detailed report with photos and suggested improvements to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Professional Chimney Services and Masonry Solutions
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we promptly execute targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration to restore structural integrity and safe draft. We assess spalling brick, cracked crowns, failed mortar joints, and compromised liners, before applying code-approved repairs. You get professional tuckpointing, crown reconstruction with effective drip edges, and cap fitting that maintain proper airflow and water protection.
If your chimney liner is compromised through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, we professionally install durable stainless or ceramic relining options custom-fitted to your appliance's BTU output and height, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers through professional parging for enhanced airflow. Our masonry restoration includes brick repairs, lintel strengthening and protective stone sealing to block dampness and salt intrusion. All restoration work is fully documented, includes pressure testing where needed, and is fully warrantied.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Transform to a safer, cleaner, and more efficient hearth with fireplace improvements that meet code requirements, high‑efficiency inserts, and smart modernization. You'll enhance efficiency, lower environmental impact, and satisfy WA codes. We evaluate hearth integrity, chimney capacity, and safety distances, then recommend energy efficient inserts tailored to your home's load, fuel type, and venting path. EPA‑approved wood, direct‑vent gas, or pellet systems offer sealed combustion, better heat distribution, and reliable draft control.
We replace worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, add insulated stainless liners where necessary, and verify hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With intelligent fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, establish temperature limits, integrate remote monitoring, and incorporate safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with thorough testing and paperwork for permits and warranties.
Addressing Smoke, Draft, and Odor Issues
After upgrading inserts and controls, proper system ventilation remains essential. Inadequate draft, smoke spillage, and unwanted smells 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 obstructions, clear creosote deposits, and optimize proper air circulation between your firebox, fresh air intake, and exhaust system. You'll receive precisely tuned air flow, balanced dampers, and proper sealing to stop smoke backdrafts. We repair leaking ash dumps, smoke chamber irregularities, and poorly fitted appliances.
To control unwanted smells, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and specify proper fuel selection and masonry treatment. In locations with strong winds, we install wind-baffling caps. We verify our work through smoke testing and CO level verification for complete safety.
