Expert Chimney Maintenance and Creosote Removal
Secure your property by removing soot and creosote before they become a fire hazard. You will decrease chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and ensure combustion byproducts venting safely outdoors. Initialize with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Execute flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, operating top-to-bottom to dislodge all stages of buildup. Vacuum with a HEPA system to control fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to locate glazed deposits that demand 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. Conclude with airflow verification and odor checks to verify effective removal and stable draft for reliable operation.
Comprehensive Safety Evaluations and Inspections
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, schedule a Level I-III inspection that follows NFPA 211 to verify that your chimney and fireplace meet your heating system. The initial Level I assessment reviews basic conditions and clearances, and Level II adds video scanning of flues and accessible areas. Level III is necessary for hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
During your assessment, we examine liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and termination heights, and draft performance. We conduct ventilation testing to confirm appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our inspection includes firebox and damper functionality, smoke chamber status, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll obtain a prioritized report, photos, and recommendations to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Professional Chimney Services and Masonry Solutions
When damage, deterioration, read more or code issues arise, we quickly implement targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We examine spalling brick, cracked crowns, failed mortar joints, and compromised liners, before applying code-approved repairs. You receive professional tuckpointing, crown reconstruction with effective drip edges, and cap fitting that protect flue ventilation and shed water.
When your liner shows signs of damage from breaks, improper dimensions, or rust, we expertly fit stainless steel or ceramic relining systems specifically dimensioned for your appliance's BTU output and height, optimizing ventilation and decreasing creosote buildup. We optimize smoke chamber performance using specialized parging techniques to achieve smoother flow. We provide comprehensive masonry work including brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and stone sealing to prevent dampness and salt intrusion. All restoration work is fully documented, includes pressure testing where needed, and includes warranty coverage.
Modern Fireplace Solutions and Upgrades
Enhance your space with a cleaner, safer, and more efficient hearth with regulation-compliant hearth modifications, energy-efficient inserts, and intelligent updates. You'll enhance efficiency, lower environmental impact, and satisfy WA codes. We evaluate fireplace condition, chimney capacity, and spacing requirements, then recommend high-performance inserts tailored to your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. EPA‑approved wood, direct‑vent gas, or pellet systems provide airtight operation, enhanced thermal efficiency, and consistent airflow management.
Our team replaces worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, add insulated stainless liners where necessary, and verify hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With smart fireplace controls, you can control ignition, configure temperature limits, implement remote monitoring, and include safety lockouts. We commission every upgrade with thorough testing and documentation for permits and warranties.
Resolving Draft, Odor, and Smoke Problems
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, proper system ventilation remains essential. Poor draft, smoke rollout, and odors commonly result from pressure issues, flue blockages, or poor damper and cap setup. 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. We provide precisely tuned air flow, balanced dampers, and proper sealing to prevent back-puffing. We address ash dump leaks, smoke chamber offsets, and misfit hearth appliances.
To control unwanted smells, we implement void sealing and improve air circulation and require appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. For areas with high winds, we add baffled caps. We confirm effectiveness with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
