Expert Chimney Maintenance and Creosote Removal
Secure your residence by eliminating soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. You will reduce chimney temperatures, improve draft, and keep combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, appropriate PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Perform flue brushing with correctly fitted poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to control 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 verify the cap and spark arrestor are unobstructed. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Conclude with airflow verification and odor checks to verify effective removal and reliable draft for safe operation.
Thorough Safety Inspections and Evaluations
Before starting your first fire of the season, schedule a Level I-III inspection that follows NFPA 211 to ensure the safety and code compliance of your heating system. The initial Level I assessment reviews standard safety requirements, while Level II includes comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. A Level III assessment examines hidden sections when significant hazards are suspected.
As part of our evaluation, we record liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and termination heights, and draft performance. We conduct ventilation testing to confirm proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our comprehensive review examines the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, gas log safety, appliance connections, and CO pathways. You'll receive a prioritized report, photos, and recommendations to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
When damage, deterioration, or code issues arise, we promptly execute targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration to reestablish structural stability and safe airflow. We examine deteriorating masonry, damaged crowns, failing mortar, and defective liners, then implement code-compliant solutions. 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, we expertly fit durable stainless or ceramic relining options specifically dimensioned for the BTU rating and elevation of your unit, maximizing airflow while minimizing creosote buildup. Our team improves smoke chambers using specialized parging techniques to improve draft efficiency. Our masonry restoration includes brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and waterproofing stone against dampness and salt intrusion. Every repair is thoroughly documented, undergoes pressure testing as required, and is fully warrantied.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Enhance your space with a cleaner, safer, and more efficient hearth with regulation-compliant hearth modifications, premium-performance inserts, and smart modernization. You'll enhance efficiency, lower environmental impact, and meet current WA codes. We evaluate fireplace condition, flue capabilities, and safety distances, then recommend optimized inserts matched to your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units offer airtight operation, better heat distribution, and reliable draft control.
We install new worn dampers with premium sealing solutions, install insulated stainless liners when required, and confirm hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With advanced fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, set temperature limits, implement remote monitoring, and incorporate safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with comprehensive inspections and documentation for permits and warranties.
Addressing Smoke, Draft, and Odor Issues
Once inserts and controls have been upgraded, proper system ventilation remains essential. Inadequate draft, smoke spillage, and unwanted smells 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, along with liner condition and proper termination elevation.
We resolve obstructions, clear creosote deposits, and optimize airflow balancing between the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust. You'll receive precisely tuned air flow, balanced dampers, and proper sealing to eliminate smoke spillage. We repair leaking ash dumps, smoke chamber irregularities, and poorly fitted appliances.
To manage odors, we implement void sealing and improve air circulation and require dry fuel and proper cures for masonry. For areas with high winds, we incorporate specialized baffled caps. We'll validate results using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
