Comprehensive Chimney Maintenance and Creosote Cleaning
Safeguard your property by clearing soot and creosote before they become a fire hazard. You'll reduce chimney temperatures, improve draft, and keep combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to shield interiors. Perform flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to dislodge all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Carry out creosote testing to detect glazed deposits that need mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clear the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and ensure the cap and spark arrestor are free of debris. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and stable draft for reliable operation.
Thorough Safety Inspections and Evaluations
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, arrange a Level I-III inspection that follows NFPA 211 to confirm the proper condition and compliance of your heating system. Level I examines clearances and general condition, while Level II adds detailed video examination of accessible spaces and flues. Level III is necessary for hidden sections when significant hazards are suspected.
As part of our evaluation, we examine liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and proper termination and draft levels. We perform ventilation testing to confirm adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our inspection includes the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, connection points, gas log installation safety, and carbon monoxide routes. You'll obtain a detailed report with photos and suggested improvements to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we swiftly proceed with focused chimney rehabilitation, relining, and masonry fixes to restore structural integrity and safe draft. We assess spalling brick, cracked crowns, failed mortar joints, and compromised liners, then implement code-compliant solutions. We provide expert tuckpointing, crown restoration with appropriate drip edges, and cap placement that protect flue ventilation and shed water.
For damaged liners through fractures, inadequate sizing, or corrosion, we professionally install high-quality stainless or ceramic liner solutions custom-fitted to the BTU rating and elevation of your unit, optimizing ventilation and decreasing creosote buildup. We optimize smoke chamber performance through professional parging to improve draft efficiency. We provide comprehensive masonry work including brick repairs, lintel strengthening and waterproofing stone against moisture and salt infiltration. Every repair is thoroughly documented, includes pressure testing where needed, and is fully warrantied.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Transform to a cleaner, safer, and more efficient hearth with code‑compliant fireplace upgrades, energy-efficient inserts, and intelligent updates. You'll improve operation, decrease pollutants, and meet current WA codes. We examine firebox condition, flue capabilities, and clearances, then propose high-performance inserts matched to your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. Pellet, direct‑vent gas, or EPA‑certified wood units provide airtight operation, improved heat transfer, and dependable ventilation control.
Our team replaces worn dampers with premium sealing solutions, install insulated stainless liners as needed, and verify hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With smart fireplace controls, you can control ignition, configure temperature limits, set up remote monitoring, and incorporate safety lockouts. We finalize every upgrade with combustion checks and documentation for permits and warranties.
Solving 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 commonly result from improper pressure, clogged flues, or misaligned damper and cap configurations. Our team evaluates stack effect, uses manometers for draft measurement, and confirms cross-sectional dimensions, flue liner integrity, and chimney height.
We fix blockages, clean creosote buildup, and adjust 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 prevent back-puffing. We address leaking ash dumps, smoke chamber irregularities, and poorly fitted appliances.
To manage odors, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and require appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. For areas with high winds, we incorporate specialized baffled caps. We verify our work using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
