Expert Chimney Maintenance and Creosote Elimination
Protect your home by removing soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. You'll lower chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and keep combustion byproducts venting safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to protect interiors. Conduct flue brushing with correctly fitted poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to manage fine particulates. Perform creosote testing to detect glazed deposits that require mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clean the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and verify the cap and spark arrestor are free of debris. Remove debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to verify effective removal and consistent draft for safe operation.
In-Depth Safety Checks and Assessments
Before using your fireplace this season, book a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to ensure the safety and code compliance of your heating system. A Level I inspection checks basic conditions and clearances, and Level II incorporates comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. A Level III assessment examines concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
Throughout our inspection, we examine the integrity of the liner, crown and cap status, and clearances to combustibles 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 get a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to enhance system performance and address safety concerns.
Expert Chimney Maintenance and Masonry Work
When damage, deterioration, or code issues arise, we quickly implement specialized repairs, liner replacements, and masonry work to reestablish structural stability and safe airflow. We assess spalling brick, cracked crowns, failed mortar joints, and compromised liners, then execute repairs meeting all codes. We provide professional tuckpointing, crown reconstruction with effective drip edges, and cap fitting that maintain proper airflow and water protection.
If your chimney liner is compromised from breaks, improper dimensions, or rust, we professionally install stainless steel or ceramic relining systems custom-fitted to the BTU rating and elevation of your unit, maximizing airflow while minimizing creosote buildup. We enhance smoke chambers using specialized parging techniques to improve draft efficiency. Our masonry restoration includes replacing damaged bricks, stabilizing lintels and protective stone sealing to block moisture and salt infiltration. Every repair is thoroughly documented, pressure-tested when necessary, and includes warranty coverage.
Fireplace Upgrades, Inserts, and Modernization
Upgrade to a safer, cleaner, and more efficient hearth with fireplace improvements that meet code requirements, premium-performance inserts, and intelligent updates. You'll enhance efficiency, lower environmental impact, and satisfy WA codes. We evaluate fireplace condition, chimney capacity, and safety distances, then propose high-performance inserts matched to your home's heating needs, preferred fuel, and chimney setup. EPA‑approved wood, direct‑vent gas, or pellet systems offer controlled burning, better heat distribution, and consistent airflow management.
We install new worn dampers with premium sealing solutions, incorporate insulated stainless liners as needed, and confirm hearth protection, mantel clearances, and CO/smoke alarm placement. With advanced fireplace controls, you can streamline ignition, configure temperature limits, integrate remote monitoring, and add safety lockouts. We complete every upgrade with comprehensive inspections and necessary records for permits and warranties.
Fixing Smoke, Draft, and Odor Issues
Following the upgrade of inserts and controls, you still need the system to breathe correctly. Poor draft, smoke rollout, and odors commonly result from negative pressure, blocked flues, or incorrect damper and cap geometry. Our team evaluates stack effect, uses manometers for draft measurement, and confirms cross-sectional dimensions, flue liner integrity, and chimney height.
We address obstructions, clear creosote deposits, and optimize balanced airflow across the firebox, makeup air, and exhaust components. You'll get precisely tuned air flow, balanced dampers, and proper sealing to stop smoke backdrafts. We correct ash dump leaks, smoke chamber offsets, and misfit hearth appliances.
For odor control, we implement void sealing and improve air circulation and specify proper fuel selection and masonry treatment. In windy zones, we install wind-baffling caps. We confirm effectiveness using safety protocols including smoke testing and carbon monoxide monitoring.
