Complete Chimney Cleaning and Creosote Elimination
Safeguard your residence by clearing soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. You'll decrease chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and keep combustion byproducts flowing safely outdoors. Initialize with a cool system, appropriate PPE, and containment to safeguard interiors. Execute flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Extract with a HEPA system to control fine particulates. Carry out creosote testing to identify glazed deposits that need mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clear the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and verify the cap and spark arrestor are free of debris. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and reliable draft for safe operation.
Thorough Safety Inspections and Evaluations
Before starting your first fire of the season, book a Level I-III inspection that follows NFPA 211 to ensure that your chimney and fireplace meet your heating system. A Level I inspection checks clearances and general condition, and Level II incorporates comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. Level III is necessary for hidden sections when significant hazards are suspected.
Throughout our inspection, we document the condition of the liner, combustible clearances, and crown and cap and draft performance and termination heights. We run ventilation testing to verify proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our inspection includes 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 correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
When damage, deterioration, or code issues arise, we quickly implement focused chimney rehabilitation, relining, and masonry fixes that ensure structural soundness and proper ventilation. We assess crumbling brick, crown damage, mortar deterioration, and liner issues, before applying code-approved repairs. We provide expert tuckpointing, crown restoration with appropriate drip edges, and cap placement that protect flue ventilation and shed water.
When your liner shows signs of damage due to cracks, undersizing, or deterioration, we professionally install durable stainless or ceramic relining options specifically dimensioned for your appliance's BTU output and height, optimizing ventilation and decreasing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers with careful parging application to improve draft efficiency. Our masonry services encompass brick repairs, lintel strengthening and waterproofing stone against dampness and salt intrusion. All restoration work is fully documented, pressure-tested when necessary, and includes warranty coverage.
Modern Fireplace Solutions and Upgrades
Upgrade to a more efficient, safer, and cleaner hearth with regulation-compliant hearth modifications, premium-performance inserts, and contemporary improvements. You'll enhance efficiency, reduce emissions, and meet current WA codes. We examine firebox condition, chimney capacity, and website spacing requirements, then recommend energy efficient inserts sized for your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. EPA‑approved wood, direct‑vent gas, or pellet systems deliver airtight operation, better heat distribution, and dependable ventilation control.
Our team replaces worn dampers with premium sealing solutions, add insulated stainless liners where necessary, and ensure proper hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With advanced fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, set temperature limits, integrate remote monitoring, and include safety lockouts. We commission every upgrade with thorough testing and paperwork for permits and warranties.
Resolving Problems with Draft, Odor, and Smoke
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, ensuring proper system airflow is crucial. Draft issues, smoke problems, and unpleasant odors typically stem from pressure issues, flue blockages, or poor damper and cap setup. We diagnose stack effect, measure draft with a manometer, and verify cross-sectional area, flue liner integrity, and chimney height.
We resolve restrictions, remove creosote, and set 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 address ash dump problems, smoke chamber alignment issues, and improperly fitted hearth units.
For odor control, we focus on void sealing and ventilation enhancement and require dry fuel and proper cures for masonry. For areas with high winds, we install wind-baffling caps. We confirm effectiveness through smoke testing and CO level verification for complete safety.
