Professional Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Elimination
Secure your residence by eliminating soot and creosote before they become a fire hazard. This will lower chimney temperatures, improve draft, and ensure combustion byproducts flowing safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to protect interiors. Execute flue brushing with correctly fitted poly or steel rods, operating top-to-bottom to dislodge all stages of buildup. Extract 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 verify the cap and spark arrestor are clear. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to verify effective removal and reliable draft for reliable operation.
In-Depth Safety Checks and Assessments
Before starting your first fire of the season, arrange a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to ensure that your chimney and fireplace meet your chimney and fireplace system. A Level I inspection checks standard safety requirements, whereas Level II includes detailed video examination of accessible spaces and flues. Level III is necessary for hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
During your assessment, we document liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and proper termination and draft levels. We run ventilation testing to confirm proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our comprehensive review examines damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, connection points, gas log installation safety, and carbon monoxide routes. You'll get a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
Professional Chimney Services and Masonry Solutions
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we quickly implement targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We examine crumbling brick, crown damage, mortar deterioration, and liner issues, then execute repairs meeting all codes. We provide professional tuckpointing, crown reconstruction with effective drip edges, and cap fitting that maintain proper airflow and water protection.
If your chimney liner is compromised through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, we expertly fit stainless steel or ceramic relining systems specifically dimensioned for the BTU rating and elevation of your unit, maximizing airflow while minimizing creosote buildup. We optimize smoke chamber performance with careful parging application to achieve smoother flow. We provide comprehensive masonry work including replacing damaged bricks, stabilizing lintels and stone sealing to prevent water and salt damage. We maintain detailed records of all repairs, undergoes pressure testing as required, and comes with a comprehensive warranty.
Modern Fireplace Solutions and Upgrades
Enhance your space with a cleaner, safer, and more efficient hearth with code‑compliant fireplace upgrades, high‑efficiency inserts, and contemporary improvements. You'll enhance efficiency, decrease pollutants, and satisfy WA codes. We examine fireplace condition, chimney capacity, and spacing requirements, then propose energy efficient inserts tailored to your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. Direct‑vent gas, EPA‑certified wood, or pellet inserts provide sealed combustion, enhanced thermal efficiency, and reliable draft control.
Our team replaces worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, incorporate insulated stainless liners where necessary, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With intelligent fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, set temperature limits, integrate remote monitoring, and add safety lockouts. We commission every upgrade with thorough testing and documentation for permits and warranties.
Addressing Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
Once inserts and controls have been upgraded, proper system ventilation remains essential. Draft issues, smoke problems, and unpleasant odors typically stem 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, along with liner condition and proper termination elevation.
We fix obstructions, clear creosote deposits, and optimize proper air circulation between your firebox, fresh air intake, and exhaust system. You'll get precisely tuned air flow, balanced dampers, and proper sealing to stop smoke backdrafts. We correct ash dump problems, smoke chamber alignment issues, and improperly fitted hearth units.
To control unwanted smells, we implement void sealing and improve air circulation and specify proper fuel selection and masonry treatment. For areas with high winds, we add baffled caps. We confirm effectiveness through smoke testing and CO level verification for complete safety.
