Professional Chimney Cleaning and Creosote Removal
Safeguard your property by clearing soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. You will lower chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and ensure combustion byproducts flowing safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, suitable PPE, and containment to shield interiors. Execute flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to dislodge all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Carry out creosote testing to identify glazed deposits that require mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Remove debris from the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and ensure the cap and spark arrestor are unobstructed. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and stable draft for safe operation.
In-Depth Safety Checks and Assessments
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, arrange a Level I-III inspection that follows NFPA 211 to confirm the safety and code compliance of your fireplace and chimney setup. The initial Level I assessment reviews clearances and general condition, and Level II adds detailed video examination of accessible spaces and flues. A Level III assessment examines hidden sections when significant hazards are suspected.
Throughout our inspection, we record the condition of the liner, combustible clearances, and crown and cap and termination heights, and draft performance. We run ventilation testing to confirm adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. 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 prioritized report, photos, and recommendations to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Professional Chimney Services and Masonry Solutions
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we swiftly proceed with targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We examine deteriorating masonry, damaged crowns, failing mortar, and defective liners, then execute repairs meeting all codes. You get expert tuckpointing, crown restoration with appropriate drip edges, and cap placement that maintain proper airflow and water protection.
When your liner shows signs of damage from breaks, improper dimensions, or rust, we professionally install high-quality stainless or ceramic liner solutions specifically dimensioned for your appliance's BTU output and height, optimizing ventilation and decreasing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers with careful parging application to achieve smoother flow. Our masonry restoration includes brick repairs, lintel strengthening and waterproofing stone against dampness and salt intrusion. Every repair is thoroughly documented, includes pressure testing where needed, and includes warranty coverage.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Transform to a more efficient, safer, and cleaner hearth with regulation-compliant hearth modifications, energy-efficient inserts, and smart modernization. You'll enhance efficiency, reduce emissions, and meet current WA codes. We evaluate fireplace condition, ventilation capacity, and safety distances, then suggest energy efficient inserts sized for your home's load, fuel type, and venting path. EPA‑approved wood, direct‑vent gas, or pellet systems deliver airtight operation, better heat distribution, and dependable ventilation control.
We replace worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, install insulated stainless liners as needed, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With intelligent fireplace controls, you can control ignition, configure temperature limits, integrate remote monitoring, and add safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with comprehensive inspections and documentation for permits and warranties.
Fixing Draft, Odor, and Smoke Problems
Once inserts and controls have been upgraded, ensuring proper system airflow is crucial. Poor draft, smoke rollout, and odors usually trace to improper pressure, clogged flues, or misaligned damper and cap configurations. We assess stack effect, check draft levels using manometers, and examine cross-sectional measurements, along with liner condition and proper termination elevation.
We resolve obstructions, clear creosote deposits, and optimize balanced airflow across the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust components. We provide precisely tuned air flow, balanced dampers, and proper sealing to stop smoke backdrafts. We address leaking ash dumps, smoke chamber irregularities, and poorly fitted 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 incorporate specialized baffled caps. We confirm effectiveness using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
