Complete Chimney Cleaning and Creosote Removal
Safeguard your property by removing soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. This will decrease chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and keep combustion byproducts venting safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, appropriate PPE, and containment to protect interiors. Execute flue brushing with correctly fitted poly or steel rods, operating top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to control fine particulates. Conduct creosote testing to identify glazed deposits that require mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clear the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and verify the cap and spark arrestor are free of debris. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and consistent draft for reliable operation.
In-Depth Safety Checks and Assessments
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, book a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to ensure the proper condition and compliance of your heating system. The initial Level I assessment reviews clearances and general condition, while Level II adds comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
Throughout our inspection, we record the integrity of the liner, crown and cap status, and clearances to combustibles and termination heights, and draft performance. We run ventilation testing to verify proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our comprehensive review examines damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll get a prioritized report, photos, and recommendations to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
Chimney Repairs, Relining, and Masonry Restoration
When damage, deterioration, or code issues arise, we quickly implement specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work to restore structural integrity and safe draft. We evaluate spalling brick, cracked crowns, failed mortar joints, and compromised liners, before applying code-approved repairs. You receive precise tuckpointing, crown rebuilding with proper drip edges, and cap installations that maintain proper airflow and water protection.
For damaged liners from breaks, improper dimensions, or rust, we expertly fit high-quality stainless or ceramic liner solutions custom-fitted to your appliance's BTU output and height, optimizing ventilation and decreasing creosote buildup. We optimize smoke chamber performance using specialized parging techniques to achieve smoother flow. Our masonry services encompass replacing damaged bricks, stabilizing lintels and protective stone sealing to block moisture and salt infiltration. Every repair is thoroughly documented, pressure-tested when necessary, and includes warranty coverage.
Modern Fireplace Solutions and Upgrades
Enhance your space with a cleaner, safer, and more efficient hearth with fireplace improvements that meet code requirements, high‑efficiency inserts, and intelligent updates. You'll boost performance, lower environmental impact, and comply with WA codes. We evaluate firebox condition, chimney capacity, and spacing requirements, then propose energy efficient inserts sized for your home's requirements, energy source, and ventilation system. Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units provide sealed combustion, enhanced thermal efficiency, and reliable draft control.
Our team replaces worn dampers with high-performance sealing mechanisms, add insulated stainless liners when required, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With smart fireplace controls, you can control ignition, set temperature limits, set up remote monitoring, and add safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with combustion checks and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Addressing Draft, Smoke, and Odor Concerns
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, ensuring proper system airflow is crucial. Draft issues, smoke problems, and unpleasant 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 address obstructions, clear creosote deposits, and optimize balanced airflow across the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust components. You'll receive optimized combustion air, properly adjusted dampers, and secure gasketing to prevent back-puffing. We repair ash dump leaks, smoke chamber offsets, and misfit hearth appliances.
To control unwanted smells, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and specify appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. For areas with high winds, we incorporate specialized baffled caps. We verify our work with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
