Complete Chimney Maintenance and Creosote Elimination
Protect your property by eliminating soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. This will decrease chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and ensure combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Initialize with a cool system, appropriate PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Execute flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to control fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to detect glazed deposits that require 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. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Conclude with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and consistent draft for reliable operation.
Comprehensive Safety Evaluations and Inspections
Before starting your first fire of the season, arrange a Level I-III inspection that follows NFPA 211 to confirm the proper condition and compliance of your fireplace and chimney setup. Level I examines basic conditions and clearances, while Level II includes video scanning of flues and accessible areas. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates hidden sections when significant hazards are suspected.
As part of our evaluation, we document the condition of the liner, combustible clearances, and crown and cap and proper termination and draft levels. We perform ventilation testing to confirm proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our inspection includes firebox and damper functionality, smoke chamber status, gas log safety, appliance connections, and CO pathways. You'll obtain 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 swiftly proceed with specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We examine spalling brick, cracked crowns, failed mortar joints, and compromised liners, then execute repairs meeting all codes. You receive 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 professionally install high-quality stainless or ceramic liner solutions perfectly sized to match your unit's heat output and chimney height, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers using specialized parging techniques to achieve smoother flow. We provide comprehensive masonry work including brick repairs, lintel strengthening and protective stone sealing to block water and salt damage. All restoration work is fully documented, pressure-tested when necessary, and is fully warrantied.
Fireplace Upgrades, Inserts, and Modernization
Transition to a cleaner, safer, and more efficient hearth with code‑compliant fireplace upgrades, energy-efficient inserts, and contemporary improvements. You'll enhance efficiency, lower environmental impact, and meet current WA codes. We examine firebox condition, flue capabilities, and spacing requirements, then recommend energy efficient inserts matched to your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units offer sealed combustion, better heat distribution, and dependable ventilation control.
Our team replaces worn dampers with high-performance sealing mechanisms, install insulated stainless liners when required, and verify hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With intelligent fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, establish temperature limits, implement remote monitoring, and incorporate safety lockouts. We commission every upgrade with comprehensive inspections and paperwork for permits and warranties.
Fixing Draft, Odor, and Smoke Problems
Once inserts and controls have been upgraded, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Inadequate draft, smoke spillage, and unwanted smells commonly result 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, flue liner integrity, and chimney height.
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 prevent back-puffing. We repair ash dump website problems, smoke chamber alignment issues, and improperly fitted hearth units.
For odor control, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and recommend proper fuel selection and masonry treatment. In locations with strong winds, we install wind-baffling caps. We confirm effectiveness with smoke tests and CO monitoring for safety.
