Complete Chimney Cleaning and Creosote Elimination
Secure your home by clearing soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. You will decrease chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and maintain combustion byproducts flowing safely outdoors. Initialize with a cool system, appropriate PPE, and containment to shield interiors. Execute flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, operating top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Carry out creosote testing to identify glazed deposits that need mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Remove debris from the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and verify the cap and spark arrestor are free of debris. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to verify effective removal and reliable draft for dependable operation.
In-Depth Safety Checks and Assessments
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, schedule a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to verify that your chimney and fireplace meet your heating system. Level I examines standard safety requirements, whereas Level II adds comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
As part of our evaluation, we examine liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and proper termination and draft levels. We conduct ventilation testing to confirm proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our inspection includes damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, gas log safety, appliance connections, and CO pathways. You'll receive a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Chimney Repairs, Relining, and Masonry Restoration
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we swiftly proceed with targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration to restore structural integrity and safe draft. We assess crumbling brick, crown damage, mortar deterioration, and liner issues, then implement code-compliant solutions. You receive professional tuckpointing, crown reconstruction with effective drip edges, and cap fitting to ensure proper ventilation and water drainage.
When your liner shows signs of damage from breaks, improper dimensions, or rust, we expertly fit stainless steel or ceramic relining systems perfectly sized to match 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 brick replacement, lintel reinforcement and waterproofing stone against water and salt damage. Every repair is thoroughly documented, pressure-tested when necessary, and comes with a comprehensive warranty.
Modern Fireplace Solutions and Upgrades
Enhance your space with a more efficient, safer, and cleaner hearth with regulation-compliant hearth modifications, energy-efficient inserts, and smart modernization. You'll boost performance, lower environmental impact, and satisfy WA codes. We examine hearth integrity, ventilation capacity, and spacing requirements, then propose optimized inserts matched to your home's requirements, energy source, and ventilation system. Direct‑vent gas, EPA‑certified wood, or pellet inserts offer controlled burning, enhanced thermal efficiency, and reliable draft control.
We install new worn dampers with premium sealing solutions, incorporate insulated stainless liners as needed, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With intelligent fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, configure 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
After upgrading inserts and controls, proper system ventilation remains essential. Inadequate draft, smoke spillage, and unwanted smells commonly result 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, flue liner integrity, and chimney height.
We fix obstructions, clear creosote deposits, and optimize proper air circulation between your firebox, fresh air intake, and exhaust system. You'll receive optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to stop smoke backdrafts. We repair ash dump problems, smoke chamber alignment issues, and improperly fitted hearth units.
To manage odors, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and recommend proper fuel selection and masonry treatment. In windy zones, we add baffled caps. We verify our work through smoke testing and CO level verification for complete safety.
