Expert Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Cleaning

Protect your residence by eliminating soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. This will reduce chimney temperatures, improve draft, and ensure combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, suitable PPE, and containment to protect interiors. Perform flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to clear all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Carry out creosote testing to detect glazed deposits that demand mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clean the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and verify the cap and spark arrestor are free of debris. Discard debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to verify effective removal and reliable draft for dependable operation.

Thorough Safety Inspections and Evaluations

Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, arrange a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to confirm the proper condition and compliance of your chimney and fireplace system. The initial Level I assessment reviews basic conditions and clearances, whereas Level II includes video scanning of flues and accessible areas. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates hidden sections when significant hazards are suspected.

During your assessment, we document the integrity of the liner, crown and cap status, and clearances to combustibles and proper termination and draft levels. We perform ventilation testing to verify adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our safety checklist covers damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, gas log safety, appliance connections, and CO pathways. You'll get a prioritized report, photos, and recommendations to enhance system performance and address safety concerns.

Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work

When structural problems, deterioration, or code concerns emerge, we swiftly proceed with targeted chimney repairs, relining, and masonry restoration that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We examine deteriorating masonry, damaged crowns, failing mortar, and defective liners, then implement code-compliant solutions. We provide 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 professionally install high-quality stainless or ceramic liner solutions specifically dimensioned for the BTU rating and elevation of your unit, optimizing ventilation and decreasing creosote buildup. Our team improves smoke chambers with careful parging application for enhanced airflow. Our masonry restoration includes brick repairs, lintel strengthening and protective stone sealing to block moisture and salt infiltration. All restoration work is fully documented, includes pressure testing where needed, and is fully warrantied.

Fireplace Upgrades, Inserts, and Modernization

Transform to a cleaner, safer, and more efficient hearth with code‑compliant fireplace upgrades, energy-efficient inserts, and smart modernization. You'll enhance efficiency, reduce emissions, and comply with WA codes. We evaluate firebox condition, flue capabilities, and safety distances, then recommend optimized inserts sized for your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. Direct‑vent gas, EPA‑certified wood, or pellet inserts provide airtight operation, improved heat transfer, and reliable draft control.

Our team replaces worn dampers with high-performance sealing mechanisms, install insulated stainless liners where necessary, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With smart fireplace controls, you can control ignition, establish temperature limits, set up remote monitoring, and include safety lockouts. We finalize every upgrade with combustion checks and paperwork for permits and warranties.

Addressing Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke

Once inserts and controls have been upgraded, proper system ventilation remains essential. 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, liner continuity, and termination height.

We resolve blockages, clean creosote buildup, and adjust balanced airflow across the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust components. We provide tuned combustion air, calibrated dampers, and tight gasketing to stop smoke backdrafts. We repair leaking ash dumps, smoke chamber irregularities, and poorly fitted appliances.

To control unwanted smells, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and require appropriate fuel types and masonry curing. For areas with high winds, we add baffled caps. We verify our work through smoke testing and CO level verification for complete safety.
