Professional Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Elimination
Safeguard your property by clearing soot and creosote before they become a fire hazard. You will lower chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and ensure combustion byproducts venting safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, suitable PPE, and containment to protect interiors. Conduct flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to control fine particulates. Carry out creosote testing to detect glazed deposits that require mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clean the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and verify the cap and spark arrestor are free of debris. Discard debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and consistent draft for dependable operation.
In-Depth Safety Checks and Assessments
Before starting your first fire of the season, arrange a Level I-III inspection that follows NFPA 211 to ensure the safety and code compliance of your fireplace and chimney setup. A Level I inspection checks basic conditions and clearances, and Level II incorporates video scanning of flues and accessible areas. Level III is necessary for concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
As part of our evaluation, we document the integrity of the liner, crown and cap status, and clearances to combustibles and termination heights, and draft performance. We conduct ventilation testing to verify adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our safety checklist covers the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, connection points, gas log installation safety, and carbon monoxide routes. You'll receive a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to enhance system performance and address safety concerns.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
When structural problems, deterioration, or code concerns emerge, we promptly execute targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We evaluate deteriorating masonry, damaged crowns, failing mortar, and defective liners, then implement code-compliant solutions. You receive expert tuckpointing, crown restoration with appropriate drip edges, and cap placement that maintain proper airflow and water protection.
If your chimney liner is compromised from breaks, improper dimensions, or rust, our team implements durable stainless or ceramic relining options perfectly sized to match your appliance's BTU output and height, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. We optimize smoke chamber performance with careful parging application for enhanced airflow. Our masonry services encompass brick repairs, lintel strengthening and protective stone sealing to block dampness and salt intrusion. Every repair is thoroughly documented, pressure-tested when necessary, and is fully warrantied.
Modern Fireplace Solutions and Upgrades
Enhance your space with a safer, cleaner, and more efficient hearth with fireplace improvements that meet code requirements, premium-performance inserts, and contemporary improvements. You'll enhance efficiency, lower environmental impact, and meet current WA codes. We examine firebox condition, ventilation capacity, and safety distances, then suggest energy efficient inserts sized for your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. Direct‑vent gas, EPA‑certified wood, or pellet inserts provide controlled burning, better heat distribution, and reliable draft control.
We replace worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, incorporate insulated stainless liners when required, and verify hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With smart fireplace controls, you can control ignition, establish temperature limits, implement remote monitoring, and add safety lockouts. We commission every upgrade with comprehensive inspections and documentation for permits and warranties.
Resolving Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
After upgrading inserts and controls, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Poor draft, smoke rollout, and odors commonly result from negative pressure, blocked flues, or incorrect damper and cap geometry. We assess stack effect, check draft levels using manometers, and examine cross-sectional measurements, flue liner integrity, and chimney height.
We fix blockages, clean creosote buildup, and adjust balanced airflow across the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust components. You'll get optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to eliminate smoke spillage. We repair ash dump problems, smoke chamber alignment issues, and improperly fitted hearth units.
To control unwanted smells, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and specify dry fuel and proper cures for masonry. For areas with high winds, we install wind-baffling caps. We verify our work with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
