Expert Chimney Cleaning and Creosote Elimination
Safeguard your residence by removing soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. This will lower chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and maintain combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to shield interiors. Conduct flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Vacuum with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Conduct creosote testing to identify glazed deposits that need mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clean the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and confirm the cap and spark arrestor are unobstructed. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and reliable draft for reliable operation.
Thorough Safety Inspections and Evaluations
Before using your fireplace this season, arrange a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to confirm the proper condition and compliance of your fireplace and chimney setup. The initial Level I assessment reviews basic conditions and clearances, while Level II adds comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. Level III is necessary for hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
During your assessment, 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 ensure appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our comprehensive review examines the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll receive a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to enhance system performance and address safety concerns.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
Upon discovering damage, wear, or code violations, we quickly implement specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We examine crumbling brick, crown damage, mortar deterioration, and liner issues, then implement code-compliant solutions. We provide expert tuckpointing, crown restoration with appropriate drip edges, and cap placement that maintain proper airflow and water protection.
When your liner shows signs of damage due to cracks, undersizing, or deterioration, our team implements durable stainless or ceramic relining options custom-fitted to your unit's heat output and chimney height, ensuring optimal draft and reducing creosote buildup. Our team improves smoke chambers through professional parging to improve draft efficiency. We provide comprehensive masonry work including brick repairs, lintel strengthening and stone sealing to prevent moisture and salt infiltration. We maintain detailed records of all repairs, undergoes pressure testing as required, and includes warranty coverage.
Fireplace Renovation and Insert Options
Enhance your space with a safer, cleaner, and more efficient hearth with code‑compliant fireplace upgrades, energy-efficient inserts, and intelligent updates. You'll boost performance, reduce emissions, and satisfy WA codes. We examine firebox condition, chimney capacity, and spacing requirements, then suggest energy efficient inserts matched to your home's load, fuel type, and venting path. EPA‑approved wood, direct‑vent gas, or pellet systems provide sealed combustion, improved heat transfer, and reliable draft control.
Our team replaces worn dampers with tight‑sealing systems, incorporate insulated stainless liners when required, and confirm hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With advanced fireplace controls, you can control ignition, set temperature limits, integrate remote monitoring, and incorporate safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with thorough testing and documentation for permits and warranties.
Addressing Smoke, Draft, and Odor Issues
After upgrading inserts and controls, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Draft issues, smoke problems, and unpleasant odors typically stem 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, liner continuity, and termination height.
We address obstructions, clear creosote deposits, and optimize proper air circulation between your firebox, fresh air intake, and exhaust system. You'll get tuned combustion air, calibrated dampers, and tight gasketing to eliminate smoke spillage. We repair ash dump leaks, smoke chamber offsets, and misfit hearth appliances.
To control unwanted smells, we implement void sealing and improve air circulation and recommend dry fuel and proper cures for masonry. In windy zones, we install wind-baffling caps. We verify our work using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
