Professional Chimney Cleaning and Creosote Cleaning
Protect your residence by eliminating soot and creosote before they become a fire hazard. This will decrease chimney temperatures, improve draft, and keep combustion byproducts venting safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, appropriate PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Perform flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to manage fine particulates. Carry out creosote testing to identify 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. Conclude with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and reliable draft for dependable operation.
Comprehensive Safety Evaluations and Inspections
Before using your fireplace this season, book a Level I-III inspection that follows NFPA 211 to confirm the safety and code compliance of your chimney and fireplace 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 hidden sections when significant hazards are suspected.
As part of our evaluation, we examine liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and proper termination and draft levels. We perform ventilation testing to confirm appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our inspection includes the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll obtain a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Chimney Repairs, Relining, and Masonry Restoration
When structural problems, deterioration, or code concerns emerge, we promptly execute specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work 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 get expert tuckpointing, crown restoration with appropriate drip edges, and cap placement that protect flue ventilation and shed water.
For damaged liners due to cracks, undersizing, or deterioration, we expertly fit durable stainless or ceramic relining options specifically dimensioned for your unit's heat output and chimney height, optimizing ventilation and decreasing creosote buildup. We optimize smoke chamber performance with careful parging application for enhanced airflow. Our masonry services encompass 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 is fully warrantied.
Modern Fireplace Solutions and Upgrades
Upgrade to a safer, cleaner, and more efficient hearth with code‑compliant fireplace upgrades, premium-performance inserts, and smart modernization. You'll boost performance, reduce emissions, and meet current WA codes. We evaluate firebox condition, ventilation capacity, and clearances, then suggest optimized inserts matched to your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. EPA‑approved wood, direct‑vent gas, or pellet systems deliver controlled burning, better heat distribution, and dependable ventilation control.
Our team replaces worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, add insulated stainless liners as needed, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With intelligent fireplace controls, you can automate ignition, configure temperature limits, integrate remote monitoring, and add safety lockouts. We finalize every upgrade with comprehensive inspections and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Resolving Draft, Odor, and Smoke Problems
After upgrading inserts and controls, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Draft issues, smoke problems, and unpleasant odors typically stem 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, along with liner condition and proper termination elevation.
We address 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 eliminate smoke spillage. We repair ash dump leaks, smoke chamber offsets, and misfit hearth appliances.
To manage odors, we seal voids, improve seasonal ventilation and require appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. In windy zones, we install wind-baffling caps. We verify our work with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
