Comprehensive Chimney Maintenance and Creosote Removal
Protect your home by eliminating soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. You will decrease chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and ensure combustion byproducts flowing safely outdoors. Initialize with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Perform flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to dislodge all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to control 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 confirm the cap and spark arrestor are free of debris. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to verify effective removal and stable draft for dependable operation.
In-Depth Safety Checks and Assessments
Before using your fireplace this season, schedule a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to verify the proper condition and compliance of your heating system. A Level I inspection checks basic conditions and clearances, while Level II adds video scanning of flues and accessible areas. Level III is necessary for concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
Throughout our inspection, we record 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 firebox and damper functionality, smoke chamber status, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll receive a detailed report with photos and suggested improvements to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
Chimney Repairs, Relining, and Masonry Restoration
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 execute repairs meeting all codes. You receive precise tuckpointing, crown rebuilding with proper drip edges, and cap installations that protect flue ventilation and shed water.
When your liner shows signs of damage due to cracks, undersizing, or deterioration, our team implements stainless steel or ceramic relining systems custom-fitted to the BTU rating and elevation of your unit, optimizing ventilation and decreasing creosote buildup. Our team improves smoke chambers through professional parging for enhanced airflow. Our masonry restoration includes brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and waterproofing stone against dampness and salt intrusion. Every repair is thoroughly documented, includes pressure testing where needed, and includes warranty coverage.
Fireplace Upgrades, Inserts, and Modernization
Transform to a cleaner, safer, and more efficient hearth with fireplace improvements that meet code requirements, premium-performance inserts, and smart modernization. You'll enhance efficiency, lower environmental impact, and satisfy WA codes. We examine fireplace condition, ventilation capacity, and spacing requirements, then recommend high-performance inserts tailored to your home's load, fuel type, and venting path. Direct‑vent gas, EPA‑certified wood, or pellet inserts deliver controlled burning, enhanced thermal efficiency, and consistent airflow management.
Our team replaces worn dampers with premium sealing solutions, add insulated stainless liners when required, and confirm hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With smart fireplace controls, you can automate ignition, set temperature limits, set up remote monitoring, and incorporate safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with comprehensive inspections and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Fixing Draft, Smoke, and Odor Concerns
Once inserts and controls have been upgraded, 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 diagnose stack effect, measure draft with a manometer, and verify cross-sectional area, liner continuity, and termination height.
We address blockages, clean creosote buildup, and adjust proper air circulation between your firebox, fresh air intake, and exhaust system. We provide optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to prevent back-puffing. We correct ash dump leaks, smoke chamber offsets, and misfit hearth appliances.
To manage odors, we implement void sealing and improve air circulation and specify dry fuel and proper cures for masonry. For areas with high winds, we incorporate specialized baffled caps. We confirm effectiveness through smoke testing and CO level verification for complete safety.
